Hopkins House Concrete Repairs and Protection Systems Installation

摘要

Built in 1968 near the campus of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, MD, the Hopkins House Apartment Building is an 18-story apartment complex. A five-level parking garage is connected to the apartment through a corridor. The apartment balconies around the building were originally designed and constructed as conventionally reinforced concrete slabs, cantilevering from the building fa?ade at an average of 6 ft (1.8 m). The balconies wrap around the building perimeter on every level with each apartment's balcony divided from the adjacent balconies with partition walls. Surface-mounted aluminum handrails run along the entire balcony perimeter. The bare concrete surfaces of the original balconies offered limited protection against the elements.
