KLINE provided specialized post-tensioned concrete engineering services for the entire elevated concrete framing system, working closely with the concrete contractor to optimize constructability, efficiency, and structural performance.

The project utilizes a cast-in-place, unbonded, post-tensioned concrete flat plate system throughout the parking, residential, amenity, and roof levels.

KLINE's responsibilities included the design of two-way post-tensioned slabs, transfer beams supporting the Level 2 pool deck, restraint and crack-control detailing, and complete structural framing plans for all elevated PT levels.

Through advanced post-tensioning strategies, KLINE helped reduce slab thicknesses, increase span lengths, minimize material quantities, and improve construction efficiency while meeting the project's architectural and performance objectives.
