Reservoir Woods Parking Garage

Scope/Solutions

The owner of Reservoir Woods sought to provide additional parking space in a new garage, which consists of a basement level and four elevated parking levels with 923 parking spaces.  We provided project management, coordination, and structural engineering services for the 280,000 sq ft garage.

As the prime consultant for the project, we coordinated the architectural, structural, civil, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire projection disciplines.  Highlights of our work include the following:

  • Structural design of the precast concrete superstructure supported on cast-in-place concrete spread footings
  • Structural design of two exterior stair/elevator towers and a pedestrian bridge, which provides sheltered access to adjacent office building
  • Functional design for garage circulation and access

The contractor attempted to repair the 280,000 sq ft of elevated decks and ramps, but subsequent cracking, including some through the previous repairs, raised concern about the service life of the depot. SGH investigated the cause of cracking in the concrete slabs.
