Eighty Rainey: Accuracy and Coordination in Miscellaneous Steel Detail

144tSteel
49Stories
18wkProject timeline

Designed for modern living, the ambitious 49-story twin-building project known as the 80 Rainey Residential Tower stands at 80 Rainey St., Austin, Texas. Comprising 144 tons of steel, this commercial high-rise needed careful detailing and coordination to guarantee the perfect integration of five stairs and seven single-flight steps inside the construction.

For stair connections, our team had special difficulty matching primary steel framing and embeds. These components need perfect coordination with the main structural steel team and close cooperation with it.

Our method was proactive and meticulous to fit the eighteen-week timeline of the project. Every embed and connecting point aligned exactly by closely timing our detailed efforts with the main framing. We effectively reduced possible conflicts and simplified the building process by offering several entries and constant coordination.

With a 12-week approval lead time and 8 weeks for fabrication, our method guaranteed early completion. Starting in January 2023, the project was carried out precisely, therefore highlighting our knowledge of various steel detailing and our capacity to effectively negotiate challenging tasks.

Phase 2 NewCold Indianapolis: Precision in Refrigeration Facility Steel Detailing

200tTotal steel tonnage
8wkProject timetable

The NewCold Indianapolis Phase 2 commercial refrigeration facility, housed at Edward Drive Lebanon, Indiana, calls for very specific miscellaneous steel detailing. This project involved the detailing and fabrication of an external dock stair, interior dispatch crossover stair, interior egress stair, interior high bay stair, many minor stairs, ladders, and other miscellaneous scope items with a total steel tonnage of 200 tons.

Ensuring appropriate alignment of embeds and primary steel framing—two essential components for stair connections—was one of the toughest tasks involved. Furthermore, field conditions required changes to several stair designs that needed flexibility and quick updates to keep the project efficient.

Our team closely worked with the primary steel team to ensure flawless integration of all stair connections, thereby meeting the 8-week project timetable. Using several repetitions and proactive correspondence, we effectively adjusted to field conditions while preserving precision in detailing.

Our method guaranteed flawless execution with an 8-week approval lead time and an extra 4 weeks for fabrication. Starting in April 2023, the project was completed on schedule, therefore validating our knowledge in handling challenging various steel detailing for industrial buildings and refrigeration.
