BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT AND RELEVANCE TO THIS CONTRACT (Include scope, size and const) <br />The renovation and alteration to the existing fabric of the Port of Miami Terminal C, located in Biscayne Bay, Miami, Florida. The <br />scope of which includes the demolition and removal of elements to create new openings to the existing building for three new <br />entrance gates to receive the new passenger boarding bridge link to NCL's largest cruise liner, Our design intervention had to be <br />sensitive to the history of four subsequent additions and alterations over the last 30 years to meet the shipping and growth demands <br />of South Florida's community. $919,000 Construction Budget <br /> <br />A thorough investigation of the existing fabric and engineering systems was conducted by the team to arrive at design solutions that <br />would make careful incisions to the existing fabric without violating existing warrantees or set off triggers from the building code to <br />install new and complete building systems in the area of work. The secondary support for the entrance gate and door was designed <br />to be a standalone system behind the existing window system. New steel supports and building system for the North gate opening <br />was designed to behave in the same manner as the existing while complying with new code requirements. <br /> <br />Redundant ducts and HVAC systems where retained, painted, capped (to avoid opening existing roof penetrations) and concealed <br />with a new egg crate ceiling system, creating a pleasant and free flowing open space below. <br />A concise and coordinated set of construction documents was assembled to limit RFl's and code comments in order to meet the <br />projects deadline, in time to receive NCL's new and largest cruise liner by July 2010. <br /> <br />Strategy <br />. Set up a design review meeting with design team and code officials to test design intent early and prior to submittal <br />. Minimize RFl's by presenting as much information upfront in the construction documents <br />· Minimize code review delays by design the structure to be self supporting in order not to violate warrantees and minimize <br />triggers in current code to install complete systems <br />· All penetrations to existing fabric to be capped and any new structure not to add any new load to existing structure. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />25.
