Structural System Clause Samples

Structural System. The Building structural floor system and roof framing system is a composite poured in-place concrete slab supported on precast prestressed concrete joists. The structural system is a four-inch concrete slab supported on sixteen inch deep precast prestressed joists typically at 3’- 6 5/8” on-center. Structural floor system based upon minimum building code requirements, but not less than 50 lb. psf “live load” and 25 lb. psf. “dead load” throughout the Premises. Interior concrete frame is poured concrete columns supporting precast prestressed soffit beams. The exterior of the Building is concrete tie column/beam with load-bearing masonry. Floor height to be 12’ +/- slab-to-slab.

Structural System. A) Structural loading capacity for live and dead loads consistent with other comparable Class A Buildings in San Francisco; B) Seismic code compliance for the Base Building structural system.

Structural System. 3.1 The inspector shall: A. inspect: 1. the structural components including foundation and framing. 2. by probing a representative number of structural components where deterioration is suspected or where clear indications of possible deterioration exist. Probing is NOT required when probing would damage any finished surface or where no deterioration is visible.

Structural System. The structural or framing system shall be of reinforced concrete or steel as determined by structural and economic analysis. No consideration will be given to a structural system of post-tensioned concrete. The system is to be designed and constructed in compliance with applicable codes and standards.

Structural System. Design load capabilities shall be as follows: Concrete floor with trowelled finish, smooth and level. First floor to be slab on grade; second and third floors-one hundred (100) pounds per square foot live load. The floor-to-floor height will be 13'4" allowing for an approximately 9'0" finished ceiling height. Typical bay spacing is 25'0" × 30'0".

Structural System. The building structural system shall be 5-1/2" concrete tilt-up walls, 23' maximum height from finished floor with steel columns and bar joists. All floors that are slab on grade shall be 4" poured-in-place concrete placed over a well-compacted and properly drained base as recommended by soils engineer. Control joints shall be placed as required. Provide an eight inch (8") thickened slab with isolation control joints under stamping equipment; total of two (2) 10' x 10' areas.

Structural System. 3.1 The inspector shall: A. inspect: 1. the structural components including foundation and framing. 2. by probing a representative number of structural components where deterioration is suspected or where clear indications of possible deterioration exist. Probing is NOT required when probing would damage any finished surface or where no deterioration is visible. B. describe: 1. the foundation and report the methods used to inspect the under-floor crawl space. 2. the floor structure. 3. the wall structure. 4. the ceiling structure. 5. the roof structure and report the methods used to inspect the attic. 3.2 The inspector is NOT required to: A. provide any engineering service or architectural service. B. offer an opinion as to the adequacy of any structural system or component.

Structural System. 1. Design live loads:

Structural System. The Building's structural system will most likely be a braced steel frame with composite floor slabs. This approach offers the most flexibility in future alterations to the Building, and is also an economical approach to a building structure in the New England construction market. The typical floor loading criteria that should be expected is the following: Uniformly Distributed Design Loads - Offices 80 lbs. psf + 20 lbs. psf partition allowance - Corridors 80 lbs. psf (above Level One) - Stairs 100 lbs. psf - Mechanical Areas 150 lbs. psf (or actual equip. weights if greater) - Elevator Machine Room 150 lbs. psf All anticipated floor loading for the Building, including the uniformly distributed loads, roof live loads, concentrated live loads, live load reductions, wind and seismic loads, etc., should be reviewed with the structural engineer of record. The structural system and its grid spacing should conform to the standard lab module identified below, with a 22'-0" wide column spacing along the length of the building, as shown on Drawings A1.01 - A1.08 dated December 20, 2000. As previously mentioned, the optimum, average floor to floor height for the Building is approximately 14'-6" to 15'-0" from finished floor to the adjacent finished floors. The average penthouse volume requires approximately 20'-0" clear for MEP distribution, with an additional 2'-6" of structure at the penthouse roof. Electrical Rooms/Plumbing Closets/Shaft Areas The typical shell & core areas required for the mechanical, normal electrical, emergency electrical, plumbing, and fire protection equipment will need to be sized and located in accordance with the MEP/FP Guidelines, and coordinated with the schematic layout of the Tenant areas of the Building. All additional shaft areas that are necessary as a result of the development of the interior fit-up will be coordinated with the Shell & Core scope during the subsequent phases.
