Target Mall 205
Portland, Oregon

VLMK Consulting Engineers provided structural engineering services for this remodeled Target store at Mall 205.

The existing building is a 157,000 square foot steel framed structure. Originally built in the 1970s, the existing two-story building was found to be deficient when subjected to current code prescribed seismic forces. VLMK performed a seismic upgrade according to the 1997 Uniform Building Code. Strengthening of the lateral system was accomplished via the addition of several new braced frames. The new frames were designed to carry the buildings entire seismic lateral force, and also served to upgrade the roof diaphragm by reducing the clear span. In addition to the seismic upgrade, tenant improvements included new steel framing for an escalator and freight elevator, a heightened parapet, and several new canopies. Construction cost on this project was 7 million dollars.
