This capstone project report presents the comprehensive design and analysis of a multi-story office building located at 516 W Pico Blvd, Los Angeles. The project aims to address the architectural, structural, geotechnical, environmental, and construction management aspects of constructing a high-rise building in a seismically active and geotechnically complex region. The building, with a height of 44.5 meters and a total floor area of 15950 square meters, is designed to house both office and commercial spaces, ensuring energy efficiency, sustainability, and compliance with local building regulations.
The architectural design prioritizes natural lighting, ventilation, and energy-efficient features, such as high-performance glass and solar panels, to achieve LEED certification. Structural design focuses on seismic resilience, incorporating advanced techniques like moment frames and dual force resistance systems. Geotechnical investigations address the soil profile, seismic analysis, and foundation design to ensure stability and safety.
Environmental engineering efforts include a robust waste management plan, emphasizing recycling, composting, and potential methane recovery. Construction management outlines the project charter, scheduling, cost estimation, risk assessment, and quality management to ensure successful project delivery.
Overall, this project contributes to the development of sustainable and resilient infrastructure in Los Angeles, enhancing the city's commercial real estate landscape while meeting stringent safety and environmental standards.
