Carolinas Medical Center, ICU Tower Addition
Charlotte, North Carolina

The existing seven-story tower was designed under the 1991 North Carolina Code to accept another four-story vertical addition. However the 2000 IBC currently adopted is more restrictive. Our design approach is to provide a four-story vertical addition and a horizontal addition of 11 stories such that intrusive seismic work in the existing hospital structure is minimized. The current scheme envisions maintaining operation of the existing hospital. The addition uses steel frame construction to reduce gravity and lateral loads and uses framing concepts to minimize structural depth so that existing floor to floor heights could be matched.
