55-15 Grand Avenue

The project site is bordered by Grand Avenue to the south, several one-story buildings to the east, the freight rail lines of NYA/LIRR to the north, and an existing one-story building to the west.

The cast-in-place concrete frame constructed by Cross Country Construction LLC (Elmsford, NY) relied on CobiaxUSA 16" CLS Voided Slabs spanning 47ft between columns. The use of voided slabs reduced the weight on the foundation by as much as 35% thus providing a more economical pile-bearing foundation system by reducing the number of piles required to support the building.
