Two Presentations from DVASE 2016 Outstanding Project Award Winners  
                                      THE SPRING STREET SALT SHED

Presented By:  Anthony H. LoCicero III, P.E., LEED, AP, Project Manager, Burns Engineering


The Spring Street Salt Shed, a unique structure shaped like an enormous salt crystal, elevates the gritty character of its industrial operations and blends naturally into the gentrified residential neighborhood. Numerous technical and construction challenges, including the structure's close proximity to the Holland Tunnel, resulted in a rock solid concrete composition to ensure it was able to withstand the facility's rigorous operations. 


                                   ALCON JCM FACILITY RENOVATION
 

Presented by:  Jonathan Memmel, P.E., Lead Project Structural Engineer and Project Manager, EwingCole and Bryan Crawford, P.E., Project Structural Engineering, EwingCole

The renovation of the existing Alcon JCM Facility in Georgia, for the addition of a new contact lens manufacturing line, while maintaining a 24 hour a day, 7 day a week operation on the floor below was the primary goal of this project.  The supported floor is a robust structural system that could accommodate the loading, but with spans of 50 feet, the vibrational response was a concern.  The intent of the project was to integrate structural steel trusses constructed above the floor using the existing beams as bottom chord members and integrating this steel within a raised access floor system that would support the equipment and be coordinated with the utilities throughout.
