Design Considerations for PSD Addition (OBGI Map Library Addition)
One (1) Working Level @ 23, 800 Square Feet
Minimum functional/design/structural problems are faced with a one level
design.
Due to the fact that a one level structure would be built on existing grade north
of the existing PSD Building, few, if any, floor loading problems would be
encountered. The slab on grade approach negates the need for a "special"
structure (heavier columns and floor slabs to accommodate the loading
conditions if built above grade).
The single level approach also eliminates any design/aesthetic problems
inasmuch as the addition would be built at a level suppressed below that of
the surrounding road grade (road grade is one level higher than that of the
first floor grade and approximately equal to the second floor grade).
Several design treatments could be given to this one level addition. It could
be completely covered by earth thus creating a totally enclosed "vault"
area. ? Second, if natural light is required, skylights could be aesthetically
applied to the critical areas in forms that would "read" to the outside
observer as a sculpture garden/park area on top of the subgrade structure.
Third, if greater fenestration was required in key areas, light wells could
be designed into the structure to form sublevel gardens and/or leisure areas.
It must be remembered that this sublevel approach need not be entirely void
of any form of exterior fenestration.

Inasmuch as nothing of any real permanency (such as mechanical equipment,
structure, etc.) would be placed above this one level structure, future
vertically building expansion could very easily take place in this area with
a minimum amount of preparation (removing of the earth cover, sculpture,
planting, etc. ).
Two (2) Working Levels @ 12,000 Square Feet each
A physical split in Map Library function would occur in a two level design.
Separate (from the main building) vertical transportation would have to be
provided for the Map Library workers.
The second floor would have to be designed for 150 pounds per square inch
loading versus the usual 100 pounds per square inch office loading. This
would increase the cost of the basic structure.
A two level structural appendage on the north end of the PSD Building poses a
very accute aesthetic problem. If two levels are added over the existing
two level PSD structure, the result is going to be a building with a much
stronger visual impact. The repetative aspects of the buildings modular
facia are only going to be made more intense. One redeeming factor in
the design as presented is the service "tower". This "tower" represents a
terminus of the regimented pattern in the proposed four story structure
(main structure). If a two story structure were built on the north end of
the service tower, the mass of such a structure would not be able to contend
with the visual impact brought on by the massive proportions of the four
level structure. A two story addition would "read" as merely an aftergrowth

and not a part of an aesthetically uniform and functionally sound design
package.
Future vertical expansion could occur in such a case provided that the initial
structure was designed to take the additional structural loading. This, of
course, would result in a design beyond the load units of the initial two
story structure thus resulting in further structural/cost problems.
Three to Four Working Levels @ 8, 000 Square Feet to 6,000 Square Feet, Respectively
Basically all the problems stated for the two level structure apply to the three and
four level structure with some additional complications.
A further breakdown of function would take place especially in the case of the
four level design. A 24, 000 square foot office would thus be broken down
into a minimum of four 6, 000 square foot segments.
Due to this breakdown the efficiency of the office layout would suffer as a
result of an increase in corridor and mechanical space.
