clinton street — hoboken, nj

Lahita Engineering was contracted to perform an structural inspection of a five-story clay brick masonry residential building, with a specific focus on the central timber girder line and its connections. Multiple probe openings were created along the girder line and inspected by our office, revealing deformation at several connection points and the presence of overstressed framing members.

Following the inspection, Lahita Engineering developed and submitted a Phase 1 and Phase 2 repair package. These phases addressed the temporary shoring of overstressed members and the resecuring of all deficient timber connections to stabilize the structure.

Subsequently, a Phase 3 package was prepared and submitted to include the design of permanent repairs, which involved bolstering the central steel beam at the garage level and reinforcement at key locations within the stair shafts.
