Owen’s engineers were part of the design-build team for the demolition of existing facility and design of a new replacement 100,587 sf, four-story facility. The structure is designed with a Special Moment Resisting Frame system with Side Plate connections have been used to resist seismic and wind loads and provide a best value design solution to the owner. The new structural system also allowed the building to move horizontally to decrease effects of seismic activity. The use of this system decreased the aggregate weight of the building, thus reducing steel costs that were steadily climbing during the procurement phase of this project.
