Torre Reforma 483 and Torre Mayor

Challenges Solved

Torre Reforma 483 will be the newest Mexico City skyscraper, topping out at 800 feet (244m) to the 57th floor. The proposed building will exceed both Torre BBVA Bancomer at 771 feet (235m) located across the street, and the adjacent Torre Mayor at 739 feet (225m).

MRCE conducted a peer review of the seismic analysis used for foundation design of Torre Reforma 483, and developed a staged 3-D model to evaluate overall building settlement and the group effects of closely located LBE and perimeter slurry wall foundation elements.

MRCE designed the slurry wall and deep drilled pier foundations supporting the adjacent Torre Mayor, and provided foundation construction inspection services of excavation and foundation construction for the tower.
