    High-performance structural design delivered on 40-storey tower

    Boston Properties hired architect Skidmore Owings and Merrill LLP (SOM) and Arup to design a 40-storey tower that includes office space, a green roof, two podium levels, and two basement levels. Our design incorporated an innovative viscous damping system into the outrigger and belt truss at the crown of the building, the first of its kind in New York. This damping system reduces the building motion during wind storms, and enabled the steel tonnage to be reduced by 10%, resulting in a cost savings of $5m. The integration of seven small viscous dampers into the mechanical space at the top of the building preserved valuable space within the building that would have otherwise been occupied by a tuned-mass damper, thereby maximising rentable space for the landlord, Boston Properties.
