DEe 34 AM 7; 48 Oept: Date: December 26, 1984 Synopsis of Previous Council action: 11-5-84 -- City Engineer was instructed to perform a feasibility study on the expansion of the Council offices on the Mezzanine floor of City Hall. Recommended motion: That the Feasibility Report by the City Engineer, on the proposed expansion of the Common Council office area,a be accepted and filed. cc: John Matzer Jr., City Administrator Wayne Overstreet, Supt. of Public Buildings ~f~ Contact person: David Trietsch Phone: 5125 Supporting llata attached: Staff Report Ward: FUNOING REQUIREMENTS: Amount: N/A Sou rce: Finance: Council Notes: 75.0262 Agenda Item No ~ 1 CI..9 OF SAN BERNARDIQ - REQU~ FOR COUNCIL AC\;bN STAFF REPORT GENERAL Structurally, San Bernardino City Hall consists of a combination of steel beams, concrete beams and reinforced concrete floor slab anchored to eighteen reinforced concrete columns. Floors #2 and #4 through #6 are all of similar design with reinforced concrete beams and slabs forming the platform. Floor #3 differs slightly in that there is a stairwell opening connecting it to Floor #2. The Mezzanine floor, which contains the Council offices, differs greatly from the floors above it due to the fact that it is not a "full expanse" as the other floors are. Thi s feature allows the Council Chambers and the entry foyer to both be open to a two-story height. This was accomplished by cantilevered construction of the Mezanine "lobby" area directly North of the elevators, which overlook the foyer, and the "reception" area which overlooks the Council Chambers. A cantilever is a beam (or slab) which is built in such a way that one end or edge is unsupported. Due to this difference, construction of the Mezzanine floor consists of reinforced concrete slab over steel "I" beam girders. PROPOSED OFFICE EXPANSION The expansion of the Council offices is proposed to be constructed in two phases: Phase I consists of spanning the area between the Mezzanine lobby area and the existing conference room to provide additional office space and conference room space. Phase II would be the extension of the reception area Westerly into the space above the Counci 1 Chambers. PHASE I Expansion of the Council conference room could be accomplished by constructing a header beam in the North-south direction at the Easterly edge of the expansion with floor joists running West from the header to the existing wall to the West. The major concern with this proposal is how to accomplish a connection at the Southerly edge of the expansion. The existing "Lobby" area directly North of the elevators is a cantilevered configuration and, as such, was desi9ned to support its own weight (dead load) plus a reasonable amount of additional weight due to furniture, pedestrian traffic and the like (live load). Connecting to this slab would add more dead and live load ,and could possibly over load the design. 75-0264 2 o o o o Due to the possible prohlem with connection at the Southerly end, additional support columns may be required in the foyer area. Approximate cost for Phase I would be $200 per square foot for 250 square feet, or $50,000.00. PHASE II. Expansion of the reception area will require a forty foot span across the Council Chambers. This is possible as a free-span (no intermediate supports) if constructed between two of the existing major vertical columns. The obvious choice in columns would only allow an expansion of approximately four feet to the West. Any expansion beyond this point would be hampered by the same concerns that arose in Phase I, that is, the connecting points on the North and South are not designed to withstand additional loading. Mid- span supports would he required. Even if the span was proposed between two col umns, mid-span supports would probably be required due to the beam deflection of the span. These supports would be in the form of columns extending down to the Council Chambers floor and additional columns directly beneath the Council Chambers floor in the basement. Approximate cost for Phase II Ilould be $112,000.00 based on $200.00 per square foot for 560 square feet. SUMMARY Please note that the above analysis is based upon a rudimentary knowledge of structural design. Neither the Public Works Depart- ment or the Building and Safety Department presently have staff legally able to analyze and make design recommendations on the proposed expansion. The Professional Engineer's Act (Chapter 7 of Division 3 of the State of California Business and Professions Code) requires that this work be performed by a Professional Civil Engineer with an additional Structural Engineer authority. CONCLUSIONS Phase I of this expansion appears to be both physically and economically feasable. Phase II, however, can be accomplished only with major structural additions and with disruption of the "day to day" operations of the basement, first floor and mezzanine, and is considered unfeasible. If the Mayor and Council wish to proceed with Phase I of the proposed expansion, it is recommended that $5,000.00 be allocated to cover architectural fees and the Director of Public Works/City Engineer be authorized to issue request for proposals to selected Architects. 3
