Residential Building
Bronx, NY

 

A new (7) seven-story building with cellar. The building is approximately 54,600 square feet of accessible space with roof levels above the 4th, 6th and 7th floors (with full perimeter parapets). An elevator and stair bulkhead is on the 7th floor roof level. The site is sloped and has a “walk-out” cellar level. Floor-to-floor heights for the cellar, main level, floors 2 through 6 and 7th floor are 12’-8”, 13’-0, 9’-4” and 12’-6” respectively. The 7th level of the east elevation has a sloped mansard façade with 6 gable roof dormers with windows in each. The cladding of the mansard roof is standing seam metal roofing material. All other facades, on the 7th level, are stucco face and floors 2 through 6 have a brick veneer. The main level façade is combination store front, stucco and other. Two locations; at the south end of the N-S corridor and the west end of the E-W corridor have curtain wall construction.

  
The footings, cellar walls and piers/columns at the main level are cast-in-place concrete. The typical structural wall construction is concrete block with the exception of the 7th level sloped mansard façade which is structural cold form metal stud construction.

The typical floor and roof construction is hollow core concrete plank. Maximum plank span is 38’. Concrete spandrel beams are designed to support the floor plank and exterior walls at the perimeter between the columns at the office space, case manager rooms and the exterior columns adjacent to the library and computer room. A structural bond beam is designed for the entire perimeter, at each level, below the plank. All non load-bearing partition construction is cold formed metal framing. All partition walls have deflection track.
