May 7, 2014 To: CCHRB Members Re: Message from the Chair Serving the past two years as the Chair of this Committee has been an honor for me and I am amazed how quickly the two year term have gone by. I would like to think I have left the Committee in a strong position to take on new tasks and research as the economy improves. However there are several areas of concern that I will identify here in this message but more important, I will continue to be active and involved to help solve some of our challenges. But let’s first go over our accomplishments for the year. Members from the Committee continue to lead the world in the design and construction of high rise buildings. The next world’s tallest building has broken construction with members from this committee directly involved. We continue to serve the University of Illinois with our participation in the “Integrated Design and Construction of Buildings” class by setting up the entire class with the direction of our own, Dr. Abbas Aminmansour and taking the time out with members from the Committee sharing their knowledge with the next generation of Architects and Engineers. The class continues to be ranked one of the most popular classes by the Students. Our Scholarship Program continues strong and awarded a young student from the University of Illinois. The scholarship program is not only funded through our dues but from contributions from members. Last year’s June half day seminar was a complete success and our program for June 12
th is shaping up to be even better which is now going into its third year. Members have taken
part in the “Future Cities” where the energy level and knowledge from budding future architects and engineers is quite high. We do have a lot to be proud of and above were just a few of the examples however there are areas that we need to turn our attention to. Of the twenty task force groups only ten are listed as active. Moving forward with the help of every member we must determine new areas of research and interest and keep every member active within the Committee. It is hard for me to believe that work cannot be going on in the areas of sustainability or vertical transportation. We must indentify new areas to investigate in order to draw new members into the Committee. As you will see in this annual report we have lost several members over the past several years as our Committee ages. Our challenge will be to add the most qualified new members, but of more importance, create an environment and interest for people to want to join us. This will also help to keep the Committee financially strong. We continue to be a highly respected group and I have already had discussions with the new City of Chicago Building Commissioner how we can help their department, we have in the past and we will continue to do so. As the world economy hopefully continues to improve future clients will reach out to Chicago for our expertise in high rise buildings and I am sure our members will be involved with this new work and the challenges it will bring. As I complete my term as serving as the CCHRB Chair, I want to thank all the members for their support and for their commitment to making the CCHRB a respected organization. In particular, I would especially like to thank the members of the Executive Committee, Carl Baldassarra (Vice Chair), Abbas Aminmansour (Secretary), Chuck Anderson (Treasurer), Jane Cameron (Program Director), and Peter Weismantle (Immediate Past Chair), who worked diligently with me on the Executive Committee. It has truly been a pleasure and an honor to serve the Committee as Chair.
Sincerely Yours

Task Force: Building Pressurization
Chairman:
Luke Leung
Task Force Members:
Ray Clark Kim Clawson Mehdi Jalayerian Tom McNamara Al Shiner Robert Tazelaar Varkie Thomas
Activities during past year: We have not been meeting for several months, but
in general, we meet monthly on the first
Wednesday of the month. We put together a
proposal with CTBUH on “Derive and test a
standard methodology for stack effect
measurements in tall buildings,” but unfortunately
the person who prepared the report from CTBUH
does not has time to provide the explanation
required by ASHRAE and is not moving forward.
(ASHRAE wants it to go out to bid and that is why
CTBUH also lost interest.)
Potential activities for the coming year:
The Task Force will prepare program for the upcoming ASHRAE Winter meeting in Chicago

Activities during past year: The History/Archival task force periodically photographically documents the monthly Committee meetings and has the presentations, as available, posted on the website. It is also sadly noted that the Task Force lost its Co-Chair with the passing of George Schipporeit in 2013.
Potential activities for the coming year:
Looking ahead, 2014 will be the Committee’s 45th year. We should be prepared for special activities to mark that anniversary.

Task Force: IIT Cladding
Chairman:
Tom Brock
Task Force Members:
Jim Cleary Jerry Reich Steve Riggio
Activities during past year: Inactive.
Potential activities for the coming year:
This committee remains inactive due to the loss of staging and assembly space at IIT. The space used for the last façade construction has been converted over to a metal and wood shop for the College of Architecture and we no longer have adequate space to put the façade together. Aside from leasing space off campus, we have been unable to find a suitable solution to this problem.

Task Force Members:
Fred Afshari Jim Cleary Mike Hagen Steve Riggio Jerry Reich Kevin Sido John Zils
Activities during past year: The following information and documents collected by the Task Force since the 2013-2014 Task Force Report have been converted to a single PDF document.
Archived copy of CBD-228 - Sliding Snow on Sloping Roofs. (Canadian Building Digest.)
Photographs of ice accretion on wall profiles and surfaces during weather events through the period of 2013-2014.
Investigation to control increasing seasonal snow and ice accumulation due to continuing changes in weather temperature and moisture and effects occurring due to exterior wall thermal design problems.
Potential activities for the coming year:
As stated in the 2012-2013 report, occurrences of snow and ice accretions falling from buildings continues to be apparent as evidenced by the number of caution/warning signs placed on sidewalks/pedestrian ways after snow and freezing rain events, and news reports. Buildings of varied vintages, configurations, and facade types are affected. To the extent possible, snow and ice accretion affecting high rise buildings will continue to be documented and studied for repetition of freeze/ thaw patterns to allow control of accumulation.

The following are the Task Force Reports prepared by the Chairman of each of the respective Task Forces
Task Force: Non-Chicago Codes
Chairman: Kim Clawson
Task Force Members: Carl Baldassarra, Robert Fahlstrom (City of Chicago Department of Buildings, on behalf of the Commissioner), Robert Grupe, Jeff Harper, Nestor Iwankiw, Steven Nilles, Gary Kohn, John Urbikas, Luke Leung.
Activities For Last Year:
In collaboration with the Chicago Building Code Task
Force, members of this Task Force meet, discussed, and
drafted responses to the proposed implementation of
NFPA-101 on the City of Chicago by the Office of the
Illinois State Fire Marshal in 2013. That implementation
was subsequently withdrawn, but has reappeared in the
form of proposed legislation in the Spring of 2014.
Potential Activities for Coming Year: Continue to monitor and, when appropriate, respond to
the developments with regards to modifications
proposed with regards to the Office of the Illinois State
Fire Marshal. Continued monitoring and response, as
appropriate, to proposed changes to the IBC, NFPA
codes or other codes and standards which impact high
rise buildings.
Non-Chicago codes often have a greater impact on the
work of many CCHRB members than the Chicago
Building Code (CBC). It is important for CCHRB to
continue to work with the City of Chicago in ongoing
major effort to improve the CBC (which is the
responsibility of another Task Force of CCHRB). It is also
important that CCHRB membership continue to develop
their knowledge of national codes (e.g., IBC and NFPA)
and codes utilized in the areas where work on new
projects continues in the coming decade; such as China
and the Middle East.

The following are the Task Force Reports prepared by the Chairman of each of the respective Task Forces
Task Force: Disaster Mitigation
Chairman: Kim Clawson
Task Force Members: Sherwin Asrow, Ralph Calistro, Ray Clark, Richard Fencl, Jeff Harper, Nestor Iwankiw, Harold Olin, Robert Tazelaar, Jerry Reich, Larry Weldon.
Activities For Last Year:
None. 2014-2015 will be a more active and productive year.
Potential Activities for Coming Year: This Task Force was organized in the wake of the World Trade
Center disaster in 2001, with the original intent to focus on
issues related to terrorist attacks on high rise buildings. The
sense of urgency regarding that issue as has significantly
diminished. However, there continue to be studies,
recommendations and reports issued by such organizations as
NIST, regarding the topic and it is appropriate to review,
discuss, inform and advise the full CCHRB membership, as
appropriate, on those matters.
Tornado Response: There has been discussions among
members of the CCHRB members in the past about the value
of a long-term goal of this Task Force to become more
knowledgeable about the nature and impact of tornadoes on
high rise buildings, and to identify simple and cost effective
techniques that can be utilized to protect life and mitigate
damage to property as related to high rise buildings. The
shocking loss in April 2011 of over 300 lives in one day from
tornadoes in the southern United States is a reminder that
there still remains much work to be done to minimize the
likelihood of future such tragedies.
Earthquake Response: In addition, information continues to
become available regarding the performance of high rise and
other buildings during the March 2011 Japan earthquake and
tsunami. CCHRB committee members who have access to
valid research on that event, that is consistent with the goals
of CCHRB, are encouraged to share it with other members of
the committee. Issues to be reviewed might include
structural performance; cladding performance; dependability
and performance of systems; and human behavior with
regards to life safety issues. There has been some discussion
about having a presentation or seminar on this event.

Potential activities for the coming year:
Planning and selection of speakers for Arch 595 class for the Fall 2014 semester at the School of Architecture of the University of Illinois in Urbana is underway.

CCHRB PROGRAM DIRECTORS REPORT FOR 2013-14 ANNUAL REPORT: Note: All meetings were held at Petterino’s Restaurant, northwest corner of Dearborn and Randolph Streets, Chicago; lower level banqueting facility, unless noted otherwise.
June 13, 2013 The CCHRB 2013 Spring Annual Seminar was held in the morning of that day. Some of the seminar presenters provided a re-cap of their presentations at the meeting. Presentations were by Jamie Ponce (Clinton Climate Initiative) who discussed the importance of the Chicago Energy Challenge, Phil Keuhn (Sieben Energy Associates) who presented case studies of Chicago Buildings and their energy measurements as part of the Chicago Retrofit Program, and Luke Leung (SOM) who presented on the concept of centralized energy services. July 11, 2013 Annual Summer Party: The event was held on top of the North Avenue Beach House. No Program. August 8, 2013 This meeting was a follow up to the Business meeting from May 2013, to discuss the budget in greater detail. No Program. September 12, 2013 “Wuhan Greenland Center Main Tower” Mr. Dennis Poon, of Thornton Tomasetti, presented the structural design for this mixed-use tower in China. The structural presentation was a follow up to the Architectural presentation of the project that was presented at the CCHRB meeting in 2012. The presentation focused on the structural systems integration with the architectural and mechanical systems, super columns, and belt trusses were employed at the Mechanical floor levels of the building. October 10, 2013 “New Skins, Old Bones” Mr Mic Patterson, presented the concept of re-cladding existing buildings in order to upgrade their energy performance and use newer technologies for curtain wall systems. He discussed the historical context of curtain walls, the tall curtain wall building typologies, the retrofit process, means and methods, and Sustainable issues to be considered when retrofitting existing buildings. November 14, 2013 “Modular Construction at the Atlantic Yards” CCHRB Member, Mr. Robert Tazelaar, and his colleague, Mr Declan Monaghan, of Arup, presented on the Atlantic Yard development located in Brooklyn, NY. The development, currently under construction, is a 29-story, 350,000SF residential apartment building which is to be constructed using modules. The presentation offered unique features and details, as well as construction methods used to facilitate the project completion.
December 9, 2013 There was no scheduled presentation in December, as the members enjoyed the Holiday party at Phil Stefani’s 437 Rush Restaurant and Grill. January 9, 2014 “GI Energy” Mr. Rob Olden, of GI Energy, gave a presentation centered on geothermal ground-source technology as it applies to large commercial, education, and government installations. The focus was on Energy Piles which is a concept still relatively new to the North American market, but which has been used for some time in Europe.GI Energy discussed design considerations, how to integrate this system with traditional HVAC systems and presented case studies. February 13, 2014 “Kingdom Tower: The Long and Winding Road” Mr. Peter Weismantle, of Adrian Smith Gordon Gill, presented this Super tall tower to the group and focused on the Architectural design of the mixed-use building. He gave a project overview, recounted its long history in the design process and expanded on the architectural design and technical highlights, including the Vertical transportation systems, exterior cladding, and general arrangement of the building. The project is currently under construction in Saudi Arabia. Additional presentations of the Structural and MEP design will be presented at later meetings in 2014. March 14, 2013 “King Abdullah Financial District: Design & Construction of a City” Mr James Giebelhausen, of Perkins + Will, presented the firm’s work on the King Abdullah Financial district. He provided a review of the process used for the overall development of the King Abdullah Financial District from a global view, while implementing the KAFD master plan design guidelines as created by Danish Architects Henning Larsen. With over 15 global architectural design firms, 50 buildings and 3 major project construction phases, this mega-project was a major undertaking by the client and contractor. The focus of the presentation was on the three mixed-use buildings designed by Perkins+Will (North America), Dar Al-Handasah (Beirut & Cairo), and the design & technical efforts & processes that Perkins + Will implemented for all the other global contracting firms to bring the project to reality. April 9, 2014 “Kingdom Tower: Structural System” Mr Robert Sinn, of Thornton Tomasetti, presented the Structural engineering design for the Kingdom tower. He discussed the origins of the structural systems used on previous super tall buildings and how this influenced the design at Kingdom Tower. A selection of slides provided the analysis for the lateral, gravity and winds loads. He also indicated that there were many peer reviews done for both the structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, and the wind tunnel testing, which resulted in a highly collaborative process between several companies. The project, currently under construction is anticipated to be completed in 2018.
