Park Place Parking Structure Case Study

Structural cracking in the webs and flange of the

double T panels caused by overloaded weight

distribution on the upper deck of the parking structure.

A structural engineer was brought in to assist in assessing the damages.

The options were to either repair and add supplemental steel or remove

and replace the 6 deteriorated panels. Ultimately the owner decided to

remove/replace due to the similar cost of repair.

HSS disconnected the panels, demoed the pour strips and broke everything

free. Spancrete set the 6 new panels with a crane and over the next six

weeks HSS installed all connections, expansion joints, pour-strips, sealants

and membrane.
