Popis: Pier 1 is located at the heart of San Francisco's historic waterfront; it was built as a warehouse in the early 1930s, and is now listed as a historic site. The pier is a remarkable example of characteristic San Francisco waterfront architecture as well as pier waterfront construction. This paper examines the renovation strategy which preserved much of Pier 1's industrial character through the careful insertion of steel-framed mezzanines, and the non-intrusive addition of large diameter steel piles into the deck structure to resist seismic loads.
