Site History 1923 Boston Improved Sewage 1972 1968
Site Constraints • Peninsula, surrounded by water • Area of in-filled land • Winter snow
Engineering Constraints • Soil Properties • Compactable Soil • 4000 psf bearing capacity • Capacity, silt/clay and sand mixture • 20’ water table • Loading • Live Load 50 psf • Dead Load 70 psf • Wind Load 35 psf • Roof Load 28 psf
Architect’s Vision “With a clear understanding of the historical influences of site, the land, the harbor, the history of Boston…” air light water sewage A Machine Of Flow movement
Architectural Design 1 (Redesign) • Keep the integrity of the DOME • Allow open center to remain • Evaluate programmatic functionality • Relocate sloped floor rooms to basement level for ease of constructability of slabs
Composite steel design Regular column grid Easy installation Steel moment frame Engineering Design 1 Steel (Redesign) Typical Beam: W14X26 c=1” Moment Frame: W16X36
Total = $3,145,000 Design 1 Steel Estimate (Redesign)

Equipment Selection Truck Crane Mini Excavator Skid Steer Loader
Decision Matrix Explanation of design rankings: 1=Best…6=Worst Lowest point total wins
Design Choice • Design 3 • Best combination of strengths vs. weaknesses were 3W & 3S from matrix • Wood/Steel Hybrid • Combine the attractiveness/interest of 3W with the cost and schedule benefits of 3S • Keep wood exterior structure of 3W, but incorporate the steel interior structure of 3S
Team Dynamics/Interaction “The most challenging and the most successful part of this whole process is the perpetual learning of our own and each others discipline and how we must collaborate in order to succeed.” “The structural system is not the only aspect of the building. We need to think about the others' intentions and constraints. Compromising between different intentions is very important in developing a successful project.” “The greatest thing we will take away from this class is learning how to successfully work in a challenging situation with diverse people on a project with little contact.”
Lessons Learned • Cross-Discipline Knowledge • Vocabulary • Interests/Concerns • Teamwork • Tolerance • Dependence/Collaboration • Organization/Work Habits • Technology • New Applications
