Design Memo: Structural System Selection and Architectural Coordination
The structural system selected for this building project is a reinforced cast-in-place concrete frame system. The structure reaches a total height of 105' - 7" across eight levels, extending from Level B01-L00 at an elevation of 21'-7" up to Level B01-L07 at 105'-7", with a uniform 12'-0" floor-to-floor height across typical residential levels. An all-concrete structural system was specified because it delivers superior gravity load support and lateral stability for a mid-rise residential building of this height. Furthermore, concrete slab and beam design allows for greater distance and clear spacing between primary structural beams. This expanded beam spacing maximizes interior floor-to-ceiling clearance and minimizes overall structural framing depths, providing crucial vertical overhead room for MEP ductwork and architectural ceiling finishes without sacrificing room volume.
Superimposing a standard structural grid onto the architectural floor plan generated several prominent spatial conflicts. Primary grid lines placed structural columns and horizontal girders directly within main public egress corridors throughout typical residential floors. Having exposed columns or low-hanging beams bisecting public hallways compromised required corridor clear widths, violated life-safety code requirements, and disrupted the clean architectural line. Furthermore, several structural column locations clashed directly with interior apartment partition walls and unit living spaces.
To preserve the architectural floor plan and corridor experience, adjustments were made directly to the structural model to align with the architectural design[1]. Structural column locations and framing members were repositioned and concealed inside architectural interior walls and demising partition chases, ensuring all public corridors remain completely clear of exposed beams and columns. During initial clash detection between the linked models, structural elements were aligned manually within the workspace, resulting in an initial count of 414 clashes across 169 clash groups. Because of minor manual coordinate placement tolerances, a higher initial number of clashes was generated. Executing more precise, automated software alignment tools would significantly reduce the total clash count, though manual adjustments successfully resolved all primary spatial conflicts between the structural skeleton and architectural spaces.
