This Month’s Topic: Structural Design of the Georgia Tech Hinman Building Rehabilitation

Our guest speaker will be:
Jim Case, Uzun Case

Syllabus (1 hour HSW/SD learning unit)

A discussion of the structural challenges associated with the Hinman Building Rehabilitation project will be discussed, including the following:
- The conception and design of the "crib" structure which hangs from an existing crane girder
- Vibration considerations associated with the crib
- Improvement of the existing building's lateral system (for wind and seismic loading)
