The Burton

SGH consulted on the design of the building enclosure, including the below-grade waterproofing, plaza and balcony waterproofing, brick and metal panel-clad exterior wall assemblies, and roofing. Highlights of our work include:

• Helping select the building enclosure materials and systems
• Developing details to integrate the various building enclosure systems, including the series of setbacks and soffits, a transparent fly-by curtain wall parapet at the roof line, the rooftop pool, and the below-grade expansion joint.
• Analyzing the thermal performance of the concrete floor plate at the northeast corner where it extends beyond the facade and forms a series of roofs and soffits
• Providing construction phase services, including reviewing contractor submittals, evaluating substitution requests, and helping the project team address field conditions
