The structural system for 200 Park Avenue in San Jose, California is a robust and resilient steel framed system, the design of which meets or exceeds the latest codes and standards. The seismic bracing system is an innovative Concrete-Filled Composite Plate Shear Wall system, which provides significantly more strength as compared to the same-sized reinforced concrete walls. The design of the system was rigorously tested through the computer simulation of 22 different earthquakes representing maximum ground shaking occurring once every 2,500 years.
200 Park was designed as a Risk Category III building which requires 25% less seismic movement than most other commercial buildings. Furthermore, advanced computer analyses demonstrated the building movements are predicted to be half of that allowed by design standards. In addition to the high level of safety during extreme seismic events, the building is expected to move less than other buildings during smaller, more common earthquakes, resulting in less damage to structural and non-structural systems.
Cutting-edge light canyons carved into the structure ensure every floor feels bright and airy. Enhanced access to natural light makes the building more sustainable and energy-efficient and provides a myriad of corner spatial opportunities for innovative space makers. Natural daylight and fresh air can also be enjoyed on one or several outdoor terraces.
200 Park is more than just your typical workplace—it’s a hub for activity. You’ll find opportunities to focus on health and wellbeing, as well as recreation and play. Reach peak productivity with access to essential conveniences.
