Building Developer: M+D Properties
Architect/Parking Engineer: NBBJ
General Contractor/Builder: Swinerton Builders
Installer: West Coast Expansion Joints
Expansion Joint Systems: Watson Bowman Acme / BASF & Custom Fabricated Expansion Systems Encore Building products
With three open air retail floors and an adjacent parking structure, Encore Building Products coordinated with NBBJ, Swinerton Builders and the expansion joint installer, West Coast Expansion Joints, in an effort to offer unique systems that met special design objectives as well and the unique performance requirements of the project. Throughout the project are smaller pan type expansion joints, wall covers, and seals that were designed to blend into the surrounding walls and floors so they were not obvious to mall visitors and guest.
In addition to the smaller expansion joints, Watson Bowman also provided larger heavy duty pan type joints at the parking structure connectors that in some instances spanned 30″ and ran 25′-0″ and 30′-0″ feet. These specialty pans not only serve as expansion joints but were also integrated into the steel stairs becoming stair landings as well as expansion joints.
Encore Building Products provided custom elevator rain shades, elevator floor plates and custom designed and fabricated ceiling and pan covers.
