The Ridge Tahoe
This project called for the construction of three residential buildings containing more than 100 vacation time share units. With a Sierra Nevada mountain setting and proximity to Heavenly Valley Ski Resort, these luxury units were designed and constructed with many high-quality interior and exterior amenities requiring high standards of construction. These three structures consisted of one 48-unit, 11-story building and two 6-story buildings, all with parking garages. One of the three structures (Building 13) was a structural steel construction with composite decks and massive poured concrete footings. The two other structures consisted of Building 15, which utilized poured-in-place post-tension concrete, while Building 16 was a poured-in-place garage with the tower using masonry walls with pre-cast planks.
Clark/Sullivan faced problems pertaining to soil conditions, seismic requirements, base rock restrictions, project noise, high winds, and harsh weather conditions expected at a mountainous 7,500-ft elevation.
“Clark/Sullivan worked under adverse weather conditions, restricted access, and our ongoing business activity without missing a beat to complete our project on time. Looking back at the whole project, constructing an 11-story building on the side of a mountain at 7,500 foot elevation with snow and winds to 80 mph is a credit to your organization. Our thanks to you for a difficult job well done.” – Ronald J. Wilhite, President
