Brookwood Village Renovation
Homewood, Alabama
- 375,000 Square Feet
- The multi-story mall renovation required significant demolition of the center portion of the existing construction to allow for a new tenant lease space along with an elevated clerestory framed with structural steel trusses.
- The design incorporated a new lateral load resisting system due to the demolition of the existing system.
- Also included was new vertical transportation that required three-story escalator systems to be installed at each end of the mall concourse.
- New mall entry schemes required the demolition of the existing parking deck ramps and the construction of new elevated ramps.
- The project also consisted of four stand alone restaurants on building pads created by the construction of a 550 foot long retaining wall system along the edge of Shades Creek.
- The 20 foot tall wall was supported on drilled piers bearing on rock with at grouted tieback system to resist lateral loading.
