Agenda:
A special presentation by Derek Rayner, Principal, of KASL Consulting Engineers - the 2009 Be Inspired Winner for Innovation in Cadastre and Land Development.
A new fire station in the Sacramento, California area provides medical aide, fire suppression, hazardous materials response, and other emergency services to the region. The $4.5 million structure required significant soil excavation, drainage reconfiguration, and retaining walls. Earthwork and grading minimized the visual impact of the 15,000-square-foot, 30-foot-high building while retaining as many trees as possible.
The project team used InRoads to generate profiles and resolve conflicts; 3D PDFs and Google Earth to create structural sections; and a Google SketchUp building model referenced from the architect. Digital terrain models were used to determine earthwork quantities and create contouring. CivilStorm was used to analyze the detention pond, outlet structure, and storm drain utilities, and Transoft’s AutoTurn was used to verify adequate sizing to accommodate turning radius and circulation patterns of emergency vehicles.
