2019 STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING SUMMIT DISNEYLAND® HOTEL · ANAHEIM, CA NOVEMBER 12–15, 2019 12–15, NOVEMBER WELCOME TO THE 2019 STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING SUMMIT! Dear Attendee, It has been a privilege to serve as President of NCSEA, and it is my pleasure in that capacity to welcome you to the 2019 Structural Engineering Summit! I am excited about the changes in schedule and format that we have implemented this year, and I hope that they result in an even more enjoyable and rewarding experience for everyone. NCSEA, in partnership with its Member Organizations, supports practicing structural engineers to be highly qualified professionals and successful leaders; is a key means of achieving that purpose. With that in mind, please do not hesitate to speak with me, other members of the NCSEA Board of Directors, or the staff if you have any questions, comments, or concerns while you are here in Anaheim. Be sure to give us your honest feedback afterwards, as well, so that we can take it into account when planning future events. Thanks for coming, and have a great time! Sincerely, Jon A. Schmidt, P.E., SECB, 2018-2019 NCSEA President

Bridges to Prosperity has positively impacted the lives of over one million people in 22 countries by providing safe access to the world’s rural last mile. This program has demonstrated that by investing in connecting rural populations health care visits, school enrollment, household income, and economic opportunities increase significantly. CEO, Avery Bang, will speak about her personal journey of finding a passion in solving this global issue.

Avery Bang, Ph.D, is the President and CEO of Bridges to Prosperity (B2P), a nonprofit organization that provides isolated communities with access to essential health care, education and economic opportunities by building footbridges over impassable rivers. Under her leadership, B2P has connected over one million people around the world. Avery has been named one of ENR’s Newsmakers, one of the American Society of Civil Engineers’ (ASCE) top ten engineers under 30, and has also received the prestigious ASCE President’s Medal.

10:00–11:00 Moving Beyond Life Safety for Community Recovery Center Ballroom: Ground Level The current building code is based on the premise that the role of government and codes is to protect the lives of its citizens but that economic decisions for performance above life safety falls to the building owners and developers. But this approach ignores the nature of economic relationships and the shared need for infrastructure and building stock to maintain a viable regional economy. This talk will explore the economic risk, how progress is and is not being made in California and the social tools necessary to protect the economy in the inevitable future earthquakes.

Lucy Jones, Ph.D, is the founder of the Dr. Lucy Jones Center for Science and Society, with a mission to foster the understanding and application of scientific information in the creation of more resilient communities. She is the author of the book, The Big Ones (Doubleday, April 2018) and is also a Research Associate at the Seismological Laboratory of Caltech, a post she has held since 1984. Working with both the public and private sectors, Dr. Jones seeks to increase communities’ ability to adapt and be resilient to the dynamic changes of the world around them. The aim is to understand and communicate where the greatest vulnerabilities lie and what actions can be taken to reduce the risk that are the most cost-effective. 11:20–1:20 Exhibitor Education Sessions 11:30–1:00 Lunch on the Trade Show Floor Exhibit Hall: Ground Level Attend to be entered in a special raffle for a free 2020 Summit Registration! 11:30–1:30 President’s Lunch & Annual Business Meeting Sleeping Beauty Pavilion: Upper Level By Invitation Only Thursday, November 14, 2019 CONTINUED Exhibitor Education Sessions - Magic Kingdom 1: Upper Level

CATEGORY 1: NEW BUILDINGS < $20 MILLION Brother James Gaffney, FSC, Student Center – Romeoville, Illinois Wight & Company The Brother James Gaffney, FSC, Student Center at Lewis University is designed to be distinctive, projecting an image of a contemporary, forward-thinking uni- versity. The focal point is an 80-foot x 70-foot clear span roof framing which pays tribute to the university’s aeronautics heritage. The roof incorporates custom trusses which uniquely resemble the cable-and- strut construction of vintage airplanes. Trusses extend through the southern cur- tainwall and frame a large overhang. Sloped columns support the overhang and incorporate CastConnex specialty connections. The entire structure is ex- posed including floors, roof, decking, walls, columns and stairs.

Rose Park Pool Operations Building – Billings, Montana CTA Architects Engineers A large, singular, curved roof was constructed over two smaller struc- tures to create a new pool house in Billings, MT. Cantilevered steel col- umns fixed on drilled shafts support the high roof curved steel girders. Large glue-laminated beams of naturally durable cedar support a met- al deck that follows the roof curve. The high roof construction sequence provided quick shelter for under- lying construction during winter conditions. Careful detailing, material selection, and assemblies remove unnecessary finishes and result in raw structure that is both form and finish and is void of noticeable con- nections.

Waffle – Culver City, California NAST Enterprises Corp. Waffle is a four story tower with gently curving surface sculpted with vertical and horizontal steel fins, home to Vespertine restaurant, Culver City, California. Four aggressively bending steel pipe columns on the inside provide structural support for the building. The elevator shaft annexed on the west, provides for circulation in addition to hiding the thermal expansion joints of the steel shell. Two sets of stairs levitated on the inside and on the outside corner are especially designed with slotted and slip connections to accommo- date the flexibility demands of the building. Corner fins are cantilevered, utilizing the extent of steel capacity.

27 CATEGORY 2: NEW BUILDINGS $20 MILLION TO $100 MILLION Hale Centre Theatre – Sandy, Utah Dunn Associates, Inc. Hale Centre Theatre in Sandy, Utah, is a world-class theater experience that is truly one of a kind. It features a centrally located round stage with seating radiating concentrically outward, each row increasing in diam- eter. When patrons experience a show at Hale Centre Theatre’s centre stage, the viewing angle is 360 degrees. The theatre is approximately 130,000 square feet with two separate stages – a theater-in-the-round which seats over 900 patrons and the smaller Jewel box theater which seats 460. The larger of the two has the functionality to telescope vertically above stage level and then to retract while rotating 360 degrees.

North Carolina A&T Student Union – Greensboro, North Carolina Stewart Stewart has exceeded North Carolina A&T State University’s expectations, de- signing a focal point and multicultural hub for the country’s largest historically black public university. Since its opening, enrollment has soared. The entrepre- neurial spirit of the school is expressed through one of the most complex designs in the state. The three story, cutting-edge facility is LEED silver certified and structurally inno- vative. It features long cantilevers extending off the building from every angle, a unique exterior wall system, cantilevered floors, and two expansive, minimally supported monumental stairs, which demand attention and invite students into the center of the social energy on campus.

Rufus 2.0 Spheres – Seattle, Washington Magnusson Klemencic Associates The centerpiece of Amazon’s new corporate headquarters in Seattle, the first of their kind Spheres feature three, intersecting, glass and steel structures enclosing five freestanding floors. Comprised of organically shaped steel sections, the 65,000 square foot workspace features tree- house meeting rooms, waterfalls, a paludarium, four story living wall, and is packed with more than 40,000 plants from over 50 countries—a collection worthy of a top-tier conservatory. MKA collaborated with the architect, contractor, detailer, and fabricator through all phases of design, fabrication, and erection. Integrating fabri- cation and erection constraints into the design during earlier stages, the team delivered the architect’s vision within owner’s challenging schedule requirements and budget.

28 CATEGORY 3: NEW BUILDINGS > $100 MILLION 181 Fremont – San Francisco, California Arup 181 Fremont is a 56-story mixed-use building featuring luxury residential and commercial space. Its innovative damped mega-brace structural design facilitat- ed a reduction in building stiffness to decrease seismic demands while still satisfy- ing stringent occupant comfort criteria for wind-induced vibration, eliminating the need for a tuned mass damper. Mega-columns designed to uplift slightly in a major earthquake also limit seismic demands in the tower and foundation. The building’s resilience-based design ap- proach earned it a REDi Gold rating, having been designed to remain essentially elastic and achieve immediate re-occupancy after a 475-year earthquake.

53W53 | MoMA Tower – New York, New York WSP USA , the pyramid-shaped luxury-condominium building envisioned by Pritzker Prize-win- ning Architect Jean Nouvel, is a 728,000 gross square foot high-rise of 82 stories, reaching 1,113 feet in height on a narrow site of 87 feet in width resulting in a 1:12 slenderness ratio and it is the first time a structure of this magnitude and complexity is done with reinforced cast-in- place concrete diagrids. Adjacent to the Museum of Modern Art, the new building will also provide 65,000 gross square feet of additional unobstructed gallery spaces at levels 2, 4 and 5, that will complement the current program of the existing premises of the MoMA Museum.

Jewel Changi Airport – Singapore BuroHappold Engineering The new mixed-use complex at Jewel Changi Airport in Singapore delivers an ex- ceptional experience for the 85 million passengers that will pass through it every year. Occupying a site of approximately 1.4 million square feet, this lifestyle destina- tion, combines luxury shopping, hotel and dining facilities as well as a tropical forest valley within a global air travel hub. The highlight of Jewel Changi Airport is a massive 675-foot diameter glass-and-steel thin-shell gridshell that encloses the interior forest and commercial spaces. It has an irregular toroid form and is supported at the perimeter as well as by 14 interior columns. At the apex of Jewel’s glass roof is an oculus that showers approximately 10,000 gallons of water a minute through this spectacular central garden space.

CATEGORY 4: NEW BRIDGES OR TRANSPORTATION STRUCTURES 41st Street Steel Arch Pedestrian Bridge – Chicago, Illinois AECOM Through an international design competition, the City of Chicago constructed a new sig- nature pedestrian bridge at 41st Street connecting the Bronzeville neighborhood with the lakefront while creating an inviting atmosphere with an aesthetically pleasant iconic structure. The new 41st Street Pedestrian Bridge is 1,500 feet in length and incorporates twin 240 foot long inclined arches on graceful sweeping S-curves to span over Lake Shore Drive and Metra Electric/CN Railroads. The structure has very complex and complicated ge- ometry which created challenges to design, fabricate and erect over extremely active railroad tracks (263 trains daily) and a major highway carrying 100,000 vehicles daily. Samuel De Champlain Bridge – Montreal, Canada T.Y. Lin | International Bridge Technologies | SNV-Lavalin Joint Venture Opened to traffic on July 1, 2019, the Samuel De Champlain Bridge spans the St. Lawrence River in Montreal. The 3.4 km viaduct with a signature cable-stayed bridge represents the most high-profile infrastructure project in North America. The project faced stringent design and performance criteria, various site constraints, and an aggressive 48 month design build schedule. Challeng- es included limits to field construction during severe winter months, wind and seismic hazards, navigational channel closures, imposed no construc- tion zones, plus strict compliance with environmental and architectural re- quirements.

Sarah Mildred Long Bridge – Kittery, Maine and Portsmouth, New Hampshire FIGG | Hardesty & Hanover The new Sarah Mildred Long Bridge carries US Route 1 Bypass over the Piscataqua River between Kittery, Maine and Ports- mouth, New Hampshire. The crossing consists of vehicular ap- proach bridges stacked over railroad approach bridges leading to a movable lift span over the navigation channel. The 2,800 foot long vertical lift bridge and approaches across the Piscataqua River introduce new unique and innovative design features that allow it to efficiently carry vehicular, pedestrian, and freight rail traffic. The 2,434 foot segmental vehicular bridge pro- vides two 12 foot lanes with 5 foot shoulders and bridge railings for cyclists. The 1,437 foot segmental railroad bridge provides a heavy rail line that serves the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard.

CATEGORY 5: FORENSIC/RENOVATION/RETROFIT/REHABILITATION STRUCTURES < $20 MILLION Epoch Tasting Room – Templeton, California SSG Structural Engineers, LLP Bringing life back to the original York Mountain Winery, condemned after the 2003 San Simeon earthquake (6.6M), the new Tasting Room’s full reconstruction salvaged original materials from selective demolition, taking great care to repair the original stone winery and preserve the “bones” of the building. A delicate procedure due to 100 years of soil pressures, water infiltration, and seismic deformation, the existing building was carefully dismantled, with its usable materials catalogued, stored and re-purposed to save the character of clay brick circa 1907, heavy timber framing and to shore and re-point the un-reinforced stone walls of the original cellar.

Save the Date: November 3–6, 2020 2020 Structural Engineering Summit , NV | MGM Grand “Leaning Tower of Granby” Historical Renovations/Savoy Norfolk, Virginia Speight Marshall Francis The 1907 Hotel Savoy became dubbed the “Leaning Tower of Granby” because the nine-sto- ry building developed a 21 inch northward tilt. After a decade of annual inspections, the structural team determined that it had not been settling for over fifty years. A committed de- veloper resolved to straighten it regardless of cost—a feat that had never been accomplished on a building that tall. The innovative plan to correct the lean on the 3,250-ton building using custom 200,000 pound hydraulic-powered jacks involved nearly 70 sheets of drawings for each step of the process. Subsequent historic renovations transformed Savoy into modern apartments with ground floor retail.

Regents of the University of Michigan, William L. Clements Library Renovation & Addition Ann Arbor, Michigan SmithGroup The Clements Library project involved the addition of a state-of-the-art preservation storage space for a priceless collection of American history while subtly marking its presence in relation to the existing 1923 Italian Renaissance inspired building. The addition was placed underground in response to site constraints. This solution involved a sophisticated structural challenge involving underpinning a portion of the existing building during the 35 foot deep excavation. The result yielded a barely visible perimeter wall of black granite, peeking slightly above grade, and two glass entrance and access “jewel” boxes—subtle signifiers of the incredible un- dertaking of this construction.

CATEGORY 6: FORENSIC/RENOVATION/RETROFIT/REHABILITATION STRUCTURES > $20 MILLION Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport Modernization – Atlanta, Georgia HOK As part of the modernization of the world’s busiest airport, HOK delivered a structural and architectural icon for Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International. Dual 864-foot long structural steel canopies clad in ETFE plastic flank the existing terminal and support new pedestrian bridges over the existing roadways. Interdisciplinary design and parametric structural modeling were key in provid- ing a structure that welcomes and shelters passengers at the airport threshold. Surmounting challenges ranging from complex existing conditions to accommo- dating uninterrupted airport operations were key in exceeding the client’s expec- tations and enlivening the airport for the 21st century.

Hudson Commons: Innovative Approaches to Vertical Expansion – New York, New York WSP Hudson Commons is a unique repositioning project on 34th and 9th avenues in New York City which pushes the boundaries of vertical expansion. The eloquent renovation adds 17 floors of steel to an existing 1960’s era concrete structure, bringing the new buildings total rentable area to 700,000 square feet. The complexity of the problem inspired innovative solutions including shotcrete column jack- ets, a new reinforced concrete core threaded through the building, shoring free demolition and a range of foundation retrofit methodologies. The exposed concrete core punctuates the sleek tower addition. National Arts Centre Architectural Rejuvenation – Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Fast + Epp The National Arts Centre in Ottawa underwent a significant rejuvenation for Canada’s 150th anniversary. A key project feature is a striking coffered ceiling covering a 60,000 square foot glass-clad extension, a unique piece of structural artistry visible from the street. The roof was formed of 28 hybrid wood and steel panels prefabricated off-site, with elec- trical, mechanical and acoustic integration. The ceiling promotes engineered wood products fabricated in Canada and the ability to span large spaces using a hybrid system with each material is used according to its strengths. The rejuvenated Centre has become a new beacon for arts and culture in Canada’s capital.

CATEGORY 7: OTHER STRUCTURES

Northeastern University Interdisciplinary Science & Engineering Complex Spiral Stair – Boston, Massachusetts Summit Engineering The spiral stair is a five story, cantilevered, monumental steel plate stringer stair com- prised of steel bent plate treads and hollow structural steel cross-member framing. The stair is located within the main atrium of the building and is supported at each floor level by an A-frame structural steel framing system serving as both the primary support and the stair landing at each floor. The stair employs sloped and curved glass guard rails with stainless steel pipe railings. The stair was completed on schedule and became the focal point of the new Interdisci- plinary Science and Engineering Complex at Northeastern University.

Reinventing the Gabion: ROMO Backcountry Privies – Estes Park, Colorado Colorado Building Workshop Iconic Longs Peak is the tallest mountain in Rocky Mountain National Park and one of the most frequented 14ers in Colorado. NPS collaborated with Colora- do Building Workshop, the design-build program at the University of Colorado Denver, to design and construct new backcountry privies. The new privies suc- cess is due to their unconventional hybrid structural system and prefabrication. The solution is a series of prefabricated gabion walls and 1/8 inch steel plate moment frames that triangulate lateral loads resisted by the stone ballast. This innovative construction assembly allowed for rapid on-site construction and an architecture that disappears into the surrounding landscape.

Vessel, New York’s Staircase – New York, New York Thornton Tomasetti Vessel is the centerpiece of Hudson Yards, a 16-building complex on the West Side of Manhattan. The steel structure features a lattice of 154 intercon- necting flights of stairs, 80 landings and nearly 2,500 individual steps. As the structural engineer for the project, Thornton Tomasetti worked closely with the client and project team to develop the design from concept through design development, design assist, fabrication and construction. Vessel is a sculpture on an industrial scale, a beautifully refined design that balances form and function and celebrates craftsmanship and attention to detail to create a defining object in New York’s urban fabric. 2020 Excellence in Structural Engineering Awards The awards will be presented in eight categories:
