Texas Dow Employees Credit Union Site Design, Bay City, Texas
Site design is underway from the Klotz Associates San Antonio office on the new Texas Dow Employees Credit Union (TDECU). The 5,000 square foot financial facility, with 4-lane covered canopy drive through, is located at the intersection of SH 35 and FM 457, in Bay City Texas. The existing intersection signal will be modified by TxDOT to include cameras to accommodate the additional access into the intersection from the proposed financial facility. TxDOT permitting will be required.
GST Transport Systems, Houston, Texas
This project is completing construction and will be applying for LEED certification. It is anticipated that the project will qualify for silver rating, with Klotz Associates supporting the team efforts for the LEED certification. The design of the site included a large detention system with a stormwater quality treatment structure that allowed the removal of the pollutants. Klotz Associates prepared construction plans for a fleet maintenance facility. The site totaled approximately 28 acres and included a 33,000-sf fleet maintenance building, 20,000-sf office building, and approximately 20 acres of concrete paved truck storage / access area. The design included a pumped stormwater detention basin, a sanitary sewer lift station, stormwater quality treatment structure, and other site improvements
SpawGlass Construction Office Building, Houston, Texas
This project was the first commercial building to receive LEED Silver accreditation in Houston, where Klotz Associates worked as part of the Design Team. Involving the site design for a new office building on a 4-acre site, the project included the design of the stormwater drainage for the site to maximize the usage of shallow, grass swales for conveyance and detention. The site design incorporated a shallow basin system that maximized overland flow, eliminating the need for a storm-pipe system. By utilizing a grass-swale system, we enhanced the stormwater quality treatment of the system. Also, stormwater quality treatment sediment basins were incorporated into the design.
