Scope Of Work
This impressive 1.8 million-square-foot, nine-level parking structure utilized more than 67,000 cubic yards of concrete. The parking structure consists of 3,964 parking stalls. Connecting to the structure are four precast concrete vehicular bridges, a cast-in-place helix ramp, a cast-in-place two-way crescent ramp, and a structural steel pedestrian bridge. Rubber coated steel expansion joints were selected as a solution to dampen the noise of cars traveling throughout the garage that could otherwise be heard in the nearby neighborhood.
Using three-dimensional laser scanning on the pedestrian bridge –which connects all nine levels of parking to a single public pathway into the theme park – ensured ADA compliance and aided in meeting the schedule. Additional scope items included toll booth areas, site retaining walls, underground utilities, installing an electrical substation, and roadway work leading to the parking structure.
