Built in the heart of historic Savannah, Ga., the six-story, 65,000-sq-ft Cay Building sits atop a 1,000-space parking garage owned and operated by the city.
The garage presented weight limitations, as the building sits on 32 columns that extended down into the garage. The building veneer was supported with a series of steel angles and large cantilevered sections of slab. In an effort to keep weight off the slab, crews installed structural foam—sometimes 2 ft thick—below the slabs.
