A Building Losing Its Marble: Cladding Failures Due to Ongoing Corrosion
This paper presents a case study on the ExxonMobil office headquarters is a Houston landmark. At the time of its construction in 1964 the 45-story office building held the honor as the tallest building west of the Mississippi. In 2000 and 2001, our team directed exploratory demolition and worked with the Owner, Architect, and Contractor to construct two re-clad mock-ups to assist the owner in determining the desired repair option. Throughout this full-scale re-cladding effort, we provided structural and restoration consulting services on the project. This project is a prime example of large-scale, façade/building type envelope condition assessments.
