A
major fire damaged this 62-story, 1,200,000 square foot office
tower. The difficulty of the restoration was compounded by
the many code and regulation changes since completion of the
original building. An extensive testing program determined
that 4 floors of concrete and steel decks needed replacement
to ensure the structural integrity of the building. To speed
construction, we issued 18 separate construction packages
including damage survey and demolition, replacement of damaged

slabs and
8 floors of damaged curtain wall, enclosing elevator lobbies,
upgrading the fire/life safety system and sprinklers, and compliance
with ADA. The first tenants moved back into the building in
4 months, a date that was considered impossible to meet. Our
performance received written commendations from owners, insurance
carriers, and contractors.
