  • Warren Hall Seismic Retrofit Vs. Demolition – a Feasibility Analysis - Case Study
    Warren Hall Seismic Retrofit vs. Demolition – A Feasibility Analysis - Case Study Arjun R Pandey1, Farzad Shahbodaghlou2, and Saeid Motavalli3 1 Illinois Institute of Technology, Chicago, USA 2 California State University East Bay, Hayward, USA 3 California State University East Bay, Hayward, USA ABSTRACT: This is a case study about the demolition of a 13-story concrete and steel building named Warren Hall located on California State University, East Bay campus Hayward, California. The case study covers the study of vulnerability of the building, which posed life threats to the occupants, structural deficiency when subjected to lateral forces, the proposed seismic retrofit systems to strengthen the building and the other selection of alternatives, and the final demolition decision and the demolition of the building. 1 INTRODUCTION The Warren Hall was a 13-story concrete and steel frame building located on California State University East Bay (CSUEB) campus in Hayward, California. The total area of the building was approximately 145,000 square feet. Each floors area was approximately 12,000 square feet. There was a two-story connector bridge that spanned over West Loop Road and connected with the Library building. The connector bridge was structurally attached to the Warren Hall and abutted the library with a seismic joint. CSUEB undertook several studies of the Warren Hall and the attached Library building. In 1999, Rutherford and Chekene performed a seismic study of Warren Hall in order to assess the performance of the structure when subjected to strong seismic ground motions. The major finding of this study was that there would be a brittle shear failure of the primary lateral force- resisting system.

  • Seismic Imaging of the Hayward Fault Near the California
    SEISMIC IMAGING OF THE HAYWARD FAULT NEAR THE CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY AT EAST BAY HAYWARD CAMPUS ________________________ A University Thesis Presented to the Faculty of California State University, East Bay ________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in Geology ________________________ By Collin Quesenberry May 2019 Abstract The Hayward Fault (HF) is an active, right-lateral, strike-slip fault that strikes ~325° through the eastern San Francisco Bay Area (East Bay) from Milpitas to Point Pinole, California. The more broadly defined Hayward Fault Zone (HFZ) includes the HF and lesser subparallel faults, which structurally separate major lithologies in the East Bay. The dominant lithologies west of the HFZ are metamorphosed sedimentary and igneous rocks, whereas clastic sedimentary and igneous rocks dominate areas to the east. The core of the HFZ is a 1- to 3-km-wide terrane, dominated by ophiolite rocks and oriented along the eastern side of the HF, which I refer to as the San Leandro Block (SLB). The western margin of the SLB, specifically the active trace of the HF, is the focus of my research. I collaborate with the California State University at East Bay (CSUEB) and the United States Geological Survey (USGS) Earthquake Science Center at Menlo Park, California. Our work advances the goal of using seismic velocities to interpret a three-dimensional structural model of the HFZ. This study continues efforts by the CSUEB and USGS to evaluate the near surface structure of the SLB on and around the CSUEB Hayward campus. We use seismic refraction methods, which are especially adept at identifying the high-angle fault zones and complexly deformed geologic materials that characterize the SLB.

  • 2 | Planning Context
    2 | Planning Context Historical Perspective Cal State East Bay was founded in 1957 as the State College for Alameda County. At that time, the first post- World War II baby boomers were approaching college age, and Southern Alameda County was one of the fastest growing regions in Northern California� In view of these trends, a new state college was established for the region� The new State College for Alameda County offered its first classes in 1959 in temporary facilities at Sunset High School in Hayward, with 293 full- and part- time undergraduate students and 25 faculty� The average student age was 35� Two Bachelor’s degrees - elementary education and business administration - were offered. The following year the college moved to the Hayward Union High School on Foothill Boulevard, where it remained until moving to its permanent location in the Hayward hills in 1963� The 364-acre Hauschildt Ranch consisted of a rugged, hilly area of steep slopes and knolls, and deep ravines� The hills were covered in annual grasses, with shrubs and trees following the pattern of ravines. The site required a significant amount of initial earthwork, and was graded into a series of plateaus� 7 Due to the topography and natural beauty of the site, (left) Planning Context Hauschildt Ranch site, circa 1959-60. the original master plan determined that “the use of The road shown corresponds roughly high rise building was appropriate in order to take with Carlos Bee Boulevard. advantage of good soil conditions, limited area, and the view�”1 In all, nine high rise buildings were envisioned for the campus (see Figure 2)� The original master plan took into consideration seven (lower) 2 design criteria: Hauschildt Ranch site, circa 1959-60, 1� Preservation of the broad panorama view of the was chosen over several other sites in the region for the future Cal State San Francisco Bay and the hills immediately east of East Bay campus.

  • 1 | Introduction
    1 | Introduction One of 23 campuses in the California State University system, the California State University, East Bay (Cal State East Bay or CSUEB) main campus is located in Hayward, California� Cal State East Bay consists of its large campus in Hayward; a small campus in Concord, 35 miles to the northeast; and a small center in leased space in downtown Oakland. The university also offers online courses as well as courses at selected community colleges in the region� This master plan focuses on the long term development of the Hayward campus only� As shown in Figure 1, the Hayward campus occupies 364 acres of land in the East Bay foothills, approximately two miles from downtown Hayward� Of this campus land area, about 180 acres are actually developed and in use for academic and associated uses� Cal State East Bay is poised for growth in upcoming decades. After an extended period of little to no growth (despite economic vitality and population growth in Northern California and especially the San Francisco Bay Area) Cal State East Bay, and the Hayward campus in particular, is well positioned to serve a growing demand for higher education to meet the economy’s need for a highly educated workforce� 1 Introduction Purpose and Nature of the Document structure� Also discussed in both volumes of the EIR are alternatives to the proposed development plan and The campus master planning process provides the mitigation measures for identified significant impacts. opportunity for an academic institution to reflect upon its past, consider its current condition, and create a vision for the future� This master plan for the Hayward campus of Cal State East Bay will help to define the physical resources needed to further the university’s mission and goals, determine and prioritize physical improvements on campus, and coordinate the location of existing and future campus improvements to achieve a functional, attractive, and comprehensive design.
