ABSTRACT

TECHNICAL ASSIGNMENTS

Technical Report 1: Existing Structural Conditions

Technical Report 1 examined the structural concepts and existing conditions of 800 North Glebe in an effort to more fully understand the design decisions of the engineer. Included in this report are detailed descriptions of the substructure, superstructure and lateral systems. Wind and seismic calculations, along with spot checks of gravity loads, were computed to determine the adequacy of components and their impact on one another and the architecture.

Technical Report 2: Alternate Slab Analysis

Technical Report 2 examined the existing structural slab system and compared it to three alternative slab systems:

Two-way post-tensioned slab (new column layout)
Two-way post-tensioned slab (existing column layout)
Hollow Core precast concrete planks on steam beams (new column layout)

User Note: While great efforts have been taken to provide accurate and complete information on the pages of CPEP, please be aware that the information contained herewith is considered a work-in-progress for this thesis project. Modifications and changes related to the original building designs and construction methodologies for this senior thesis project are solely the intrepretation of Ryan Johnson. Changes and discrepencies in no way imply that the original designed contained errors or was flawed. Differing assumptions, code references, requirements, and methodologies have been incorporated into this thesis project; therefore, investigation results may vary from the original design.
