Transformative Tower
The tallest structure in San Francisco, Salesforce Tower, has transformed the city’s skyline. And by being the first skyscraper to extend deep foundations into the city’s bedrock, the first to extend performance-based seismic design to account for increased capacity, and the first to employ a structure-soil-structure interaction analysis in a real-world project, it may transform structural engineering in the Bay Area as well.
