Overview

Adjacent to the Baltimore waterfront, Under Armour’s new mass timber corporate headquarters will feature collaborative hybrid spaces, a flagship retail store and state-of-the-art sports facilities. The campus includes pedestrian pathways throughout and along the waterfront.

We provided structural design services to Gensler to design this one-of-a-kind facility that is set to achieve net-zero operations and other significant sustainability goals.

Highlights

  • The inclusion of mass timber permitted the use of shallow foundation systems yielding significant construction savings on the project.
  • The building features architecturally exposed timber and concealed timber connections.
  • A 30-foot square bay module uses cross-laminated timber decks along with glulam beams and columns.
  • The structure supports a steel-framed PV canopy above the building, free standing site PV canopies and a secondary exoskeleton ETFE façade system.
