Keller Engineers was retained to provide engineering services necessary to demolish an abandoned facility and prepare the 2.1-acre site for future commercial development. The project included an asbestos and lead-based paint report prepared by a sub-consultant. The structure had a concrete frame with concrete floor and roof framing. Concrete columns supported concrete beams and floor system.
Using an on-site mobile crushing operation, the concrete and brick materials from the building were used as fill. The material was placed in the existing subgrade prior to the construction of a new facility.
We have teamed with Keller Engineers on several design-build projects for PennDOT. When selecting a designer, the more critical factors are trust and competence, more so than a low price. If your designer makes a mistake in quantities it can cost you a lot of money. We have stayed with Keller Engineers because we trust them to provide competent service at a competitive price. S.
