In only 18 months, Rudolph and Sletten built 11 office buildings totaling 1.7 million square feet of on I07 acres of brownlands on San Francisco Bay near Redwood City.

The project entailed the construction of new roads, erection of new high voltage power lines, installation of a new fiber optic telephone switching station, pump stations for sewage systems and storm drains, and the restoration of Bair Island in the San Francisco Bay to pre-1900 conditions.

Amenities for the building occupants include ball fields, soccer fields, volleyball courts, swimming pools, a fitness center, cafeterias, a 150-seat outdoor amphitheater, and a public access walking trail that skirts the bay wetlands.

Environmental issues were addressed early on. Because the site is literally on the bay, run off was a special concern. Rock bags and fabric rolls surrounded the site to prevent run off into the bay. 144,OOO yards of dirt was removed from Bair Island, and hauled onto the job site where it was mixed with lime and cement to stabilize the ground for construction.

The speed of the project can be attributed to Rudolph and Sletten's efficiency in coordination, tighter schedules, preordering of materials, locking up steel contracts and piles ahead of time, less down time, and their ability to put as much manpower on the job as it takes to meet their schedules. At the height of the project 2.5 office staffers supported the work of 110 Rudolph and Sletten field employees and 1,500 tradesmen on a daily basis.

Three pile drivers on site sank 35 piles a day to depths ranging from 80 to 110 feet. Building so much, so quickly required careful coordination with subcontractors and steel fabricators.

Rudolph and Sletten used three different skin subcontractors to install the glass curtain wall systems, and two different paving contractors on site. The glass curtain wall system installed on the buildings required careful up front coordination with subcontractors. The facade of each steel-braced building is a complicated system of sweeping arcs and curving radii. Three separate teams of glass fiber reinforced concrete contractors and glazing subcontractors worked together.
