Inspections show an additional fissure on an adjacent beam on the third level (credit: SFMTA).
SAN FRANCISCO—During the initial round of inspections, a second fissure was found at the Salesforce Transit Center. Inspections show an additional fissure on an adjacent beam at the Fremont Street location, but it is not clear to what extent that crack poses a problem.
The Transbay Joint Powers Authority/TJPA provided primary results of the inspections on the steel beams at the transit center. The TJPA is working with general contractor Webcor/Obayashi and structural engineer Thornton Tomasetti to investigate and conduct an exhaustive inspection of all similarly designed locations throughout the center.
