Construction of the neurosciences laboratory (Building 19a) at the UCSF Mission Bay campus is underway. Reclaimed in the 1880s, the Building 19a site in the new UCSF Mission Bay campus is underlain by heterogeneous fill, weak and compressible Bay Mud, dense sand, and bedrock. The site development will consist of a new five-story building to [...]

In 2009 we were approached by Kitchell, a construction management company, to design vapor mitigation systems for four new buildings at the Yosemite Community College District’s (YCCD) Modesto Junior College campus. This project for YCCD is part of a massive expansion funded by the California Measure E Bond Program. The new buildings include the following: [...]
