Salas O’Brien delivered structural cold-formed steel (CFS), acoustics, and technology engineering design for the vertical expansion of the Colorado Convention Center and Bellco Theatre, a premier venue in downtown Denver designed by Fentress Architects. Our team engineered the exterior CFS framing and panelized exterior walls for the 20,000-square-foot outdoor rooftop terrace, adhering to the tight construction schedule and the challenges of the downtown site. Additionally, we provided interior CFS wall and ceiling framing for the 80,000-square-foot, column-free Bluebird Ballroom and the 35,000-square-foot wrap-around pre-function concourse. On the technology side, we handled audiovisual, security, telecom, and data consulting, seamlessly integrating electronic safety and security systems into the existing infrastructure. This enhancement improved public spaces, including meeting rooms, outdoor areas, the ballroom, lobbies, and the video control room. Our acoustic design addressed sound isolation, electrical systems noise control, and interior acoustics to create an optimal visitor experience.
