Lake Oswego Water Treatment Plant Administration/Operations Building

West Linn, Oregon

Provided structural engineering design services for the new two-story 7,200 sq. ft. Administration/Operations Building. The building includes the plant operations control room, offices, laboratories, storage and receiving spaces. Designed as a Category III facility, the building will be constructed with reinforced concrete bearing and shear walls along with structural steel framing at the upper floor and roof level. With nearly 30 feet of liquefiable soil beneath the building site, drilled concrete piles and grade beams are used to support the building superstructure. The project also includes connector bridges to adjacent water treatment process structures.
