Carpinteria Multifamily Residence

This new, multifamily residential building in Carpinteria consists of two stories of wood framing over a concrete podium parking garage. The site posed many challenges including tight property lines, liquefaction and a very high water table. The mat foundation was used to mitigate the liquefaction and high water table. The mat foundation also resulted in a substantial cost savings over a traditional cast-in-place pile foundation.
