The high-rise building located at 111 W. Wacker Drive
in downtown Chicago, IL, was formerly known as the “Waterview.” The structure was originally designed as an 89-story luxury hotel located along the Chicago River. The construction of the conventionally-reinforced building progressed until the 27th floor, when it was shelved due to financing issues. In 2012, the hotel was redesigned as a 60-story residential apartment building and renamed “OneEleven.”
OneEleven Tower - post tensioned transfer deckAMSYSCO Inc.
The high-rise building located at 111 W. Wacker Drive in downtown Chicago was formerly known as the ‘Waterview.’ The structure was originally designed as an 89-story luxury hotel located along the Chicago River. The construction of the conventionally-reinforced building progressed until the 27th floor when the 2007 economic recession hit the U.S. Ultimately, the original project was shelved due to financing issues. The unfinished building became a visible eye-sore in the heart of Chicago for several years. Fortunately, a consortium of creditors and lienholders (Clark Wacker LLC) took ownership of the project and formed a Joint Venture with Related Midwest in 2010.
In 2012, the hotel was redesigned as a 60-story residential apartment building and renamed ‘OneEleven.’ There were several major design issues with converting a hotel into a 500-unit apartment with a smaller floor-plate and different column layout. Since the column were poured until the 28th floor, this floor was built as originally designed. The 29th floor was constructed with a 12-inch post-tensioned slab and functioned as an amenity level.
What separates this high-rise tower from others is the 60-inch transfer deck (located on the 30th floor). The transfer deck was designed to be a 72-inch conventionally-reinforced slab with the post-tensioned floors above. The PT Supplier and Concrete Contractor redesigned it into a 60-inch thick slab using post-tensioned to replace roughly 372 tons of rebar. The redesign saved around $380,000 from the cost of the transfer deck (excluding costs of other vertical elements). The reduced dead load of the slab also helped eliminate the reshoring requirements. The 12-inch building height reduction funneled into lower costs for all vertical elements and lower operational energy costs. A flat-plate was used in lieu of large beams and transfer girders in order to reduce forming costs.
The installation of the transfer slab and coordination of trades was extremely complex. Additionally, the coordination was fast-paced since the transfer slab was the second floor of the new construction. Construction trades and engineer spent almost one month on coordinating PT tendons, rebar and MEP piping/penetrations.
The transfer mat was poured in two lifts (20-inch and 40-inch lifts) for a total of roughly 2,250 cubic yards of 6000 psi concrete. One of the pours lasted 17 hours – and had an increased degree of complexity due to being poured mid-air. In total, there was 60 tons of unbonded-post-tensioning (gross weight) used in the transfer deck.
The use of unbonded post-tensioning in the original design was also used to reduce the high-rise building height by at least 1” per floor as compared to mildly-reinforced concrete. PT helped make a stalled project more economical due to the reduction in material costs (concrete columns/walls, MEP piping, elevators/stairs and curtain-wall).

Having certified personnel is a requirement in ACI-318 for post-tensioned concrete structures. The PTI Unbonded Post-tensioning Certification Program is one way to satisfy this construction requirement.

2. Lower Cost. Higher Performance.
WHY POST-TENSIONING?
Architects, engineers, developers, contractors and owners incorporate post-
tensioning systems on their projects in order to achieve economy, efficiency,
quicker construction and lower lifetime cost of the structure. Why? Because
post-tensioning enhances concrete strength under both compressive and
tensile stresses.
THE POST-TENSIONING PROCESS
Post-tensioning tendons are installed in a parabolic profile prior to placing
the concrete and later stressed to a specified concrete strength. This process
introduces both compressive forces in the concrete and stresses that counter-
balance service loads. The benefits are substantial.
3. POST-TENSIONING: ADVANTAGES AND BENEFITS
Post-tensioning (PT) frequently solves design and construction challenges that
other construction methods simply cannot. Some key advantages include:
• Thinner concrete member sizes; reduction in concrete is approximately 20%
• Rebar in floor elements is reduced by 60% to 75%
• Decreased dead load reduces rebar and concrete in columns and foundations
• Longer spans and fewer columns give greater flexibility in floor layouts and
better lighting in parking garages
• Reduction in building height decreases the cost of building cladding, vertical
mechanical/service elements, and rebar and concrete in shear walls
• Reduced building height also results in energy savings, especially for office buildings
• Improved seismic behavior
• Reduced deflection and vibration
• Improved crack control and waterproofing properties—especially beneficial for
parking garages and balconies
• Lower overall maintenance and life cycle costs of the structure
• Potential LEED® credits for Green building design and construction

AWARD-WINNING STRUCTURAL SOLUTIONS
Our early involvement with structural engineers and contractors can often
yield substantial results. A prime example is the new Guthrie Theatre Center in
Minneapolis, a particularly complex structure with a sloping concrete slab
supported by a radial/circular network of beams and cantilevered girders on five
tiers. Additionally, we supplied one million feet of PT for the 1000-space
parking garage. AMSYSCO’s focus, passion and technical prowess paid
off when the Post-Tensioning Institute awarded the structure their top honor,
the Project-of-the-Year/Award of Excellence!
Whether your project is fairly straightforward or a complex design requiring
out-of-the-ordinary structural advice, the AMSYSCO technical design, engineering
and construction support teams will apply their decades of post-tensioning
experience with the latest design tools.

11. Engineered for Reliability and Protection
ANTI-CORROSION SYSTEM
Structures exposed to corrosive environments, such as parking garages, demand
special protection. The AMSYSCO Encapsulated PT System is designed and
produced to provide the highest possible level of corrosion protection. Our
advanced design and manufacturing process provides watertight encapsulation
of the steel strand, anchorage and all connections.
We begin by coating the steel strand with special high-quality anti-corrosion
PT coating (grease), followed with high-density plastic sheathing manufactured
using our state-of-the-art extrusion process. Then each anchorage is fully
encased in an extruded jacket of high-density polyethylene. A tightly sealed
plastic sleeve is fitted on the anchor/strand connection to provide additional
protection. Finally, a grease-filled cap (pictured at right) is snapped on to
prevent moisture intrusion into the tendon ends.
