Architect: Kenneth Boroson Architects
Employer: Aschettino Associates



Existing brick building was bought by a new owner that wanted to renovate a portion of the interior space for restaurant use. They wanted to have a wrap around steel staircase that brought people up to additional seating. This was achieved with steel beams and columns placed accordingly to maximize space for the restaurant patrons without compromising the structural integrity.

Walgreens:





Commercial building with a non-loadbearing masonry wall façade and a steel framing support system. Since the building is actually two-stories tall, we used diagonally braced frames with a medial girt support in order to withstand the lateral building shear as well as the main wind force. The roof was a standard open web joist diaphram with a metal deck.

Building #3:



Commercial building with a multi-level roof composed of open web joists and a standing seam roof deck. Steel framed structure using diagonally braced frames for lateral support.
