Project Photos Details Project Description: McClone Construction built three cast-in-place levels below grade creating a foundation for structural steel levels above. This building is designed to resist vibration allowing the sensitive engineering studies to take place. A joist and beam slab (commonly referred to as pan slab) was designed to resist the vibration. The vertical members were also closely space and like the slab, contained extensive amount or reinforcing steel. The footprint of the project is approximately 27,000 sf. Changing floor plates create shore heights up to 40 feet. Because of the close joist spacing the slab was typically on about 6” thick. All the slabs were mildly reinforced. Hand-set wood beam forms and deck material were used to form the elaborate slabs, beams, and joist. Wall forms designed for use on this project were semi-gang, stub and waler panels due to the changing form heights and lengths. Swing-open columns designed by our in-house engineering were used to for the columns on the project.
