Walters’ scope of work on this project was to model, fabricate and install structural steel and metal deck.
There were 12 critical lifts and five engineered lifts with the tower crane. Seven members both Welded Wide-Flange (WWF) and Feature Stair stringers were installed using mobile cranes. The suspended slab on the ground floor and atriums climbing to the roof created a challenge for accessing the slab edge at the atrium.
