TECHNICAL REPORT I

Provides an in depth description of the 40 Gold Street structural system, and an overview of architectural features, site conditions, and basic building functions that influenced the structural design. Also included in the report are extensive seismic and wind load calculations which can be viewed in their entirety and are also organized into excel tables and various graphics/diagrams. Structural spot checks were also performed for typical structural members to both verify actual design sizes and to illustrate how various structral elements are being loaded.

TECHNICAL REPORT II

This report contains important research information describing the existing structural floor system of 40 Gold Street and three alternate floor systems. In addition, each floor system was sized using preliminary design methods. Based on design results and research information, a comparison study was conducted to determine which floor system is most appropriate for 40 Gold Street. Structural issues were not the only factors taken into consideration for the comparison study. Vibration, cost, floor-to-ceiling height, weight, construction time, material availability, and other key factors were considered.

TECHNICAL REPORT III

In this report, a detailed analysis of the 40 Gold Street lateral system was completed in order to confirm the design meets standard criteria including strength, drift, story drift, and overturning moment. Two preliminary methods of analysis are used as well as 2D and 3D computer modelling techniques.

General 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 interpretation of Christopher Ankeny. Changes and discrepancies in no way imply that the original design 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.”
