Maple Terrace

Maple Terrace

Location: Dallas, Texas

General Contractor: Walsh Group

Project Type: Commercial – Mixed-Use Development
Scope: Steel Detailing for Structural Framing, Canopies, Stairs, and Bracing Systems

Project Overview

The Maple Terrace project involved comprehensive steel detailing for a multi-level structure integrating primary framing, architectural elements, and access systems. The project required detailed coordination across structural and architectural components, including curved canopy systems, bracing configurations, and multi-level circulation elements.

Structures Online (SOL) developed fabrication-ready 3D models and shop drawings, ensuring alignment, constructability, and seamless integration across complex connection zones and varying structural geometries.

Scope of Work

• Primary Structural Steel Framework : The model includes detailed primary framing comprising columns, beams, and girders across multiple levels, with coordinated member positioning and connectivity for accurate fabrication and erection.

•  Roof / Top Steel Framing : Roof-level steel framing features inclined members forming complex nodal intersections. Each joint was modeled with precise geometry to accommodate intricate connection conditions.

• Architectural Canopy with Curved Members : A canopy structure incorporating curved beams with circular web openings was modeled with accurate profiles and alignment, ensuring integration with both structural and architectural elements.

• Multi-Level Staircase System : Multi-storey stair assemblies including flights, landings, and support framing were detailed with accurate geometry and alignment across different levels.

• Bracing System with Through Connections : Diagonal bracing members were modeled using through-type configurations, ensuring proper load paths and compatibility with primary structural members.

• Complex Connection Zones : Highly congested areas with multiple member intersections were detailed with careful coordination of clearances, bolt layouts, and fabrication feasibility.

• Cantilever and Peripheral Framing : Cantilevered and peripheral framing elements were modeled with proper extensions and connection detailing to maintain structural integrity and constructability.

Key Deliverables

• Detailed 3D structural models

• Shop and fabrication drawings

• Complex connection detailing

• Coordinated canopy, stair, and bracing systems

Project Outcome

Structures Online contributed to the successful delivery of the Maple Terrace project through precise detailing and coordination. The project highlights SOL’s expertise in complex structural systems, architectural integration, and constructability-focused steel detailing.
