COMMERCIAL CONSTRUCTION

SB Engineering has expertise in the design of a number of different commercial construction projects – each with its own unique mix of elements and structural challenges. We have managed projects that house restaurant, retail, professional and health care all under one roof, as well as medical centers complete with dialysis stations and clinical space. Time after time, the professionals at SB Engineering have found fresh solutions to unique design challenges while keeping both the integrity of the building and the client’s vision intact.

Socha Plaza: Mixed Use Development

Glenville, New York

Located on the busy Route 50 in Glenville, NY, this new 60,000 ft² steel framed building offers a true mix of uses. Restaurant and retail space occupy the first floor with professional and health care space on the second floor. The third floor offers high-end apartments with large balconies and luxury finishes.

Scott Burlingame’s Role

Complete structural engineering design for the facility including:

Three-story steel frame structure
Steel moment frame lateral force resisting system to minimize the impact of structure while maximizing the flexibility of the space
Steel support of brick veneer and curtain wall facade system
Structural steel framed, cantilevered carport structure at rear of building

Challenges

A complex, faceted, curtain wall facade along the front of the building required special consideration to provide structural support while blending seamlessly with architectural criteria.
