This project focused on designing a 15-story residential building in the Park Haahal neighborhood of Be’er-Sheva. It includes a ground floor, 13 residential floors, a penthouse, and an underground parking level. The structural design features a central core with elevator and stairwell shafts, and "mamad" safe-rooms (shelters) on each floor. The design process included analyzing the building’s location, considering seismic characteristics, and studying architectural constraints. Three design alternatives for the typical floor slab were evaluated: waffle slab, slab supported by columns with perimeter beams, and ribbed slab. The solution was chosen based on cost, execution feasibility, and time. Structural analysis was performed using both static and modal methods, to ensure compliance with Israeli seismic-safety standards.

This project focused on the structural design of a 12-story reinforced concrete residential building located in the Tet neighborhood of Be’er-Sheva, which includes 11 typical floors, a penthouse, and a basement. Each floor in the building has an approximate height of 3 meters, bringing the total building height to about 35 meters above ground level. To ensure the stability of the structure, its bracing system was based on core walls. These cores include a staircase, two reinforced safe-rooms ("Mamads"), and an elevator shaft, providing an efficient and safe structural solution.
