201 West 17th Street
New York, New York
Our engineers were involved in the structural design for this 14-story luxury residential condominium building which has commercial space at the first floor and basement levels. Construction consists of concrete flat plate with piers down to the rock stratum. The building makes extensive use of cantilevered slabs to achieve maximum open window areas, with terraced setbacks at the 10th and 12th floors. Built adjacent to the 18th Street subway station and tunnel.

Chinese Embassy Residential Tower
New York, New York
HPL Principal was involved in the structural design as project manager/ engineer for this new 22-story residential tower with a full basement. The building was founded on drilled-in caissons while the front three story extension was supported by mini piles due to the site is at a peat moss area. The basic structural system for the building consists of concrete flat plate for the residential floors and concrete shear walls for lateral loads, while a concrete beam and slab system is used to create a column-free banquet hall and roof garden on top of the building. Located on West 43rd Street in Manhattan, the tower is serving as residences for diplomats and staff at the Chinese Consulate and Mission to the United Nations.

Christy St. Hotel
New York, New York
HPL Principal was involved in the structural design as project manager/ engineer for this new 11 story Hotel building with penthouse in the heart of China town. There are two levels of basement floors below the street level as parking garage and mechanical room. Due to the three sides adjacent buildings have only one level of basements and the front below street Subway system is only about 15 feet away, the foundation design and construction was a challenge. The foundations of adjacent buildings had to be carefully underpinned with soil anchors and ties installed by sequence. Construction of mat foundations and sub floor had to be coordinated in the design to protect front street and subway system. The above floors were designed using concrete flat plate and columns. The ninth floor was a floor to build a swim pool for the owner.

Concord Ave Apartments
Bronx, New York
The project consists of a new 6 story L-shaped apartment building with partial basement at Concord Ave in the Bronx. The building was constructed in precast concrete planks on CMU bearing walls on concrete grade beams or walls supported by concrete piers which extend to rock. Waterproofing of the basement slab and foundation wall was applied due to high water table. The various rock elevations at site had to be followed. Special foundation wall design was used to avoid the underpinning of adjacent old stone foundations.

Port Liberté
New Jersey
HPL Principal was involved in the structural design of this 15 story residential building in Port Liberte, New Jersey. This 15-story residential building will consist of 11 floors of apartments above which will be located two levels of inverted townhouses. This arrangement results in a change in configuration at the twelfth floor, requiring careful attention to column locations in order to minimize transfers in this concrete slab structure. The single-loaded corridors result in a slender structure. The attached four-story garage will be precast concrete. Both buildings will be pile supported.

Super-Tek
Queens, New York
Project Engineer/manger for structural design of this AWARD winning large cement product factory as project manager in previous firm. The original front part of the building was demolished and a new heavy storage 1st floor with 2nd floor office and roof recreation area were designed. The basement was design as parking area. The columns had to be arranged for different space use at each floor. The new structure had to be carefully connected to the back producing area structures. Another 60’ high storage building was designed and built adjacent to this new building. The whole slab and foundation of the high storage building had to be design to store heavy grout product up to 40-50 feet high. Both buildings were on spread footings.
