Symphony Park Plaza

A luxury condominium project in downtown Honolulu. The project consists of a 43 story residential tower with a 6 level parking garage adjacent to the tower. The structure is regularly reinforced concrete; the building's foundation was designed to rest on end bearing piles with pile caps and grade beams to carry the column and wall loads. The structural slab in the tower was designed as a one-way flat slab and the parking garage was designed as a two-way flat slab. The tower was designed with the use of wind tunnel testing and also dynamic analysis of both the wind and seismic forces. The lateral design was done using ETABS software and 1988 UBC Zone 2A seismic forces.
