Description:
The renovation of Smith Hall provided one-, two- and three-bedroom suites, offices, common areas, lounges, laundry rooms and storage spaces within CU Boulder’s Tuscan Vernacular architectural tradition. Smith Hall is a 55,949-square-foot renovation coupled with a new 38,638-square-foot addition totaling 332 beds. The 136-bed addition required integrating the new building into the existing façade of the Kittredge Complex, whose stones were quarried 45 years ago. The team provided today’s students – and tomorrow’s leaders – with the highest quality. |

ICC Corridor Partners, a Joint Venture of Rummel Klepper & Kahl, Parsons Brinckerhoff and URS |
Description:
The $2.425-billion Intercounty Connector is an 18.8-mile highway that connects major transportation corridors north of Washington, D.C. The all-electronic tolling facility provides a safe travel alternative to overcrowded local roads. It was implemented using three design-build teams which included more than 200 contractors and subcontractors. Its $370-million environmental program included a comprehensive set of avoidance, minimization and mitigation measures which were undertaken during the roadway’s construction. The result was a roadway many have called “America’s Greenest Highway.” |

Description:
In 1996, the city of Santa Monica closed the Charnock Well Field, one of its main well fields, after discovering MtBE contamination. After years of working toward an eventual legal settlement, the city awarded a design-build contract to Black & Veatch to complete the fast-tracked restoration project. In less than 20 months, Black & Veatch completed the project and helped the city to once again restore the well field as a sustainable source of water. |
