SGH assisted with the design of the building enclosure, including below- and above-grade waterproofing, metal composite wall panels, window walls and curtain walls, and roofing. Highlights of our work include the following:

• Participated in a collaborative effort with the design and construction team to phase the building enclosure design and facilitate early procurement of critical path items
• Reviewed the building enclosure design, focusing on efficiency, constructability, and performance
• Evaluated electrochromic glass window walls for the two towers and helped the team coordinate technical requirements for the dynamic glass with the window frame system and surrounding building enclosure
• Helped develop details to integrate the various enclosure systems, including where the link building’s curtain wall intersects the two towers and at a complex expansion joint between the link and one of the towers
• Assisted the project team with detailing and implementing quality control procedures for the air and water barrier
• Consulted on waterproofing for vegetative roofs, the rooftop terrace, plaza over below-grade parking, and private balconies
• Provided construction administration services, including reviewing submittals, visiting the site to observe ongoing construction, and helping the contractor address field conditions
