Burlingame Point is a $400-million, 18-acre waterfront development that includes four mid-rise buildings, a six-story parking structure, and a two-story amenity building. In all, the project consists of 767,000 square feet of office, R&D, retail, and life-science space and is one of the largest office/R&D developments in the history of the San Francisco Peninsula. The project was built on a vacant parcel that previously housed a Drive-In Theater that was demolished in the early 2000s. The parcel went unused from then until the construction of this project.

Miyamoto developed structural systems to solve the challenges presented by the peninsular location and achieve the architect’s vision. All the buildings stand on three seismically separate podiums. The superstructures themselves combine three different lateral systems, consisting of buckling-restrained braced frames, special moment-resisting frames, and shear walls. The amenity building is supported by a special concrete moment frame system, while the parking garage has a concrete shear wall system. The architect’s bay-inspired aesthetics were achieved through special façade supporting systems that were provided by the engineering team.
