Martin/Martin was contacted by the owner to recommend repairs for this 40,000 SF parking structure following a property acquisition. The garage is the primary source of parking for the adjacent office tower building tenants. Martin/Martin recommended immediate temporary shoring to protect the users of the garage due to severely deteriorated precast inverted-tee beams, as well as a select demolition phase to determine the extent of damage to the embedded prestressing strands and mild reinforcing shear steel. Martin/Martin was subsequently hired to provide temporary shoring loads, as well as design and detail for both immediate and less critical repairs and construction administration.

Rebar cage forming a narrow rectangular tunnel, reinforcing steel bars arrayed longitudinally and transversely, awaiting concrete pour inside a construction trench with concrete walls and a blue barrel above.
Concrete parking garage: empty parking bays with white wheel stops, two cars parked far back, exposed concrete beams overhead and fluorescent lights casting cool, dim illumination across stained floor.
Long rectangular trench exposing rebar runs down a concrete parking-deck surface, supported by temporary wooden cross-braces and plywood; orange traffic cones block the area near a low parapet.
