Side plate steel shop welded steel bolted moment frames were utilized in transverse direction while steel braced frames were used in longitudinal direction. Prefabricated modules of the steel moment frame columns with beam stubs were erected using a vehicular crane. Once they were secured in place, beam links and steel braces were bolted on. The field welding was minimized and speedy erection allowed for significant cost savings to the project while minimizing affects on a busy downtown location.
