Final Report
The following report is a culmination of the past year's research and analysis of Robert Whitaker's building, Parkview at Bloomfield Station. This thesis presents the process taken to create a new design for Parkview at Bloomfield Station, a residential building located in Bloomfield, New Jersey. The summary of the original design is introduced and the initial design requirements are laid out. From here, the new braced frame structural system is created and analyzed based on structural and architectural requirements. Finally, two breadth topics are introduced to determine the new buildings cost advantage and cladding as compared to the original design.
