Ala Moana Hotel
Location: Honolulu, Hawaii
Year: 1970
Architect:
The Ala Moana Hotel utilized a unique “column tree” framing system of precast concrete structural members and cast steel splice sleeves, which substantially reduced construction time and costs.
One of the tallest buildings in Honolulu, the building is 390 feet above street level. The hotel has a 38-story tower with 960 rooms and a 13-story wing with 308 rooms. Three stories of shops, meetings rooms and dining facilities bring the total floor space of the hotel up to 1.1 million square feet.
The column tree framing system consists basically of concrete H-shapes. Grout-filled reinforcing bar connectors, invented by Alfred A. Yee, join the stacked column sections halfway between floors. This was the initial development and use of the NMB Splice Sleeves which now are used worldwide and known as one of the most reliable rebar connectors.
The construction system allowed crews to fabricate one complete floor of 18,120 square feet every 2-1/2 days. The resulting savings in time impacted significantly on the project cost since interest charges during construction was reduced and early occupancy generated substantial additional revenues.
