CONGREGATION OF ZEMACH DAVID

Project: Congregation Zemach David
Location: 10 Jefferson Ave Spring Valley, NY
Category: Religious Buildings
Completion: ongoing
Project Tonnage 25000 ton ++

A new major religious structure is rising in suburban Rockland County NY. The New Square Synagogue will be the fourth-largest in the world, at 250,000 sq.ft., five levels at over 80 ft. high, with an occupancy of over 10,000 people. This new neo-classical style building will be built from imported limestone and granite with bronze accents.

Massive steel trusses will create a clear span of 150 feet to create a dramatic vaulted sanctuary interior, with balconies suspended from the trusses above. A Roman-scale ritual bath occupies the cellar level, with seven large bathing pools and changing facilities for an anticipated 4,000 daily users. This complex project is mostly new construction, though the site incorporates the gutting and restructuring of an existing building, and making connections to a third large structure.

Here SDE had provided Complete Steel Detailing along with Sealed and Signed Connection design, Shoring Design, Staircase Design.
