Abstract
Built in the early 1970s, Aloha Stadium is a welded plate girder and steel frame structure located in Honolulu, Hawaii that was not designed for contemporary hurricane wind loads, much less the large earthquake design forces that current code now prescribes. The owner of the stadium elected to voluntarily upgrade the structure to resist current-code-level wind and seismic events. This paper presents the results of a multi-year detailed structural analysis and a multi-year structural strengthening project for Aloha Stadium.
