SERVICES PERFORMED FOR THIS PROJECT:
The Ohio Reformatory for Women's existing parking areas, which are used by the 480 staff members of the facility were undersized and deteriorating. Sands Decker CPS provided surveying services, detailed design for removal of the existing parking lot and construction of a new 500-car lot. Our services also included alternate recommendations and cost estimates for various levels of pavement resurfacing as well as complete removal and replacement for a portion of the facility's interior drive. The design of this project had to be coordinated with the design of the facility's new entrance drives and sallyport being designed by another consultant.
Sands Decker CPS completed the construction drawing phase of the project. Our electrical sub-consultant, Roger D. Fields & Associates, provided new high-mast lighting design services. We were on schedule and within budget. Sands Decker CPS acted as the Prime Consultant on this State of Ohio Funded and Locally Administered Project. This is an excellent example of our ability to provide our engineering and surveying services and coordinate the aspects of a State project. We displayed our flexibility on this project by providing several design options and construction cost estimates prior to detailed design. Services provided by Sands Decker CPS include bid document preparation and construction administration. This project also displays our ability to smoothly coordinate with Roger D. Fields & Associates, our Mechanical / Electrical Sub-Consultant.
SERVICES PROVIDED FOR THIS PROJECT:
Cowan Lake State Park offers a peaceful setting complete with scenic inlets laden with the American Lotus Water Lily. Swimming, fishing, sailing and canoeing are popular on the lake. Meandering trails through mature woodlands compliment the natural features of this scenic park. The Cowan Lake Dam Valve Replacement project consisted of replacing a leaking valve in the water elevation control structure. Upon visiting the site, it became evident that the platform inside the control structure would also need to be replaced. Sands Decker CPS took measurements of key components of the structure and prepared plans, specifications and cost estimates for replacement of the valve and work platform. Research needed to be performed in order for the new valve to match the existing bolt pattern for the pipe penetrating the structure, otherwise extensive work would need to be done. A new valve stem and handwheel was also designed and specified in order to enable operation from the top of the structure. Completion of the Design and Specifications was accomplished in time for construction to occur during the winter "low water level" period.
