Challenge:
The budget experienced a potential setback when the original geotechnical engineer specified a larger scope of soil excavation beneath the proposed distribution facility than was anticipated. This impacted the client’s budget in a very negative way. The client sought Jones|Carter’s advice on ways to remedy the situation in an attempt to put the project’s budget back in line.
Solution:
Jones|Carter assisted the client in obtaining additional geotechnical recommendations for the excavation beneath the facility and provided vital assistance in value engineering the project based upon the new recommendations. As a result, the project came in at the client’s original budget and was successfully completed.
Jones|Carter has provided engineering services for infrastructure and site development projects within the 1,700 acre Railport Business Park for over 17 years.Jones|Carter’s knowledge of the area, and relationships with the City of Midlothian and the Midlothian Development Authority, led Western Power Sports to choose Jones|Carter as the civil engineer and surveyor for their 180,000 SF distribution facility. Jones|Carter prepared the boundary survey, platted the property, determined cut fill calculations, designed paving, water, wastewater, and drainage for the project.
