Project Overview

UCansteng provided the structural review of the two-story building, reviewing the structural resisting system under gravitational and lateral loads, which was built using structural steel
braced frames, composite slab system and reinforced concrete shear walls.


The building is used for offices, laboratories, X ray room, and surgery areas. Inside the building, special moment frames were designed to provide an open space. The building can
allow for up to 100 people between customers and staff.
