Starpoint Condominiums Issaquah, WA | Architect: Runberg Architecture Group | Completion Date: 2008 Quantum Consulting Engineers provided structural design for a 92-unit mixed-use residential complex, created to be a new and vibrant live/work neighborhood in the center of the Issaquah Highlands Development of Issaquah Washington. The two buildings face each other on adjacent street corners and include street-level retail space and covered parking, a one-level underground parking level and three floors of condominiums above. Starpoint Condominiums feature numerous decks and balconies and both buildings are configured in a ‘U’ shape with a large central courtyard landscaped with large plants and trees. Views are of the surrounding hills and mountains. Structurally, the upper residential portion of the buildings are comprised of engineered wood joists and wood stud walls supported on a post-tensioned concrete slab. Below this is the at-grade level concrete framed commercial, parking and loft spaces, also supported on a post-tensioned concrete slab. The below-grade parking structure is constructed of reinforced concrete walls and columns on spread footings. Quantum Consulting Engineers also provided the design of the cantilevered shoring pile system which supported the adjacent streets during construction.
