How advanced design and construction techniques resulted in considerable savings in new 17-story head office building for Victoria Insurance Co; structural solution was to use load bearing concrete core, load bearing precast concrete facade and flat slab floor system; lateral stability against wind was built into core walls and shear wall on northern boundary; foundations are bored belled caissons founding on mudstone bedrock at depths ranging from 15 ft below basement at north end of site to 60 ft below at south; caissons were designed as tied columns with concrete strengths of 3000 psi and 1% reinforcement.
