Erickson Structural performed a structural evaluation of the existing concrete floor slab of the Montgomery Park Plaza Office Building, located in Portland, Oregon, to determine its ability to support the additional weight of a topping/leveling slab added to two office spaces within the building. Additionally, a multiple number of holes were cored through the existing slab to allow for new plumbing as part of the remodel.
Utilizing information gleaned from the original construction drawings and non-destructive testing of the slab to determine the presence of reinforcing steel, Erickson Structural was able to analyze the slab and recommend appropriate strengthening measures to compensate for the added weight and new holes.
