A Long Pregame Party

Shared from Atlas!

What good is an office at the Battery, home of the Atlanta Braves, if you can’t host your colleagues every so often?

Before kicking off the American Society of Highway Engineers (ASHE) National Conference — and cheering on the 2021 World Series champs — Long Engineering (an Atlas Company) hosted a pregame party, inviting member firms to tour their home base.

It was a celebration honoring the ASHE Georgia Section’s 25-year existence. Thanks to all who joined!

Long Takes Home The Gold

On March 25th, the American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) hosted their annual Georgia Chapter Engineer Excellence Awards. We are pleased to announce that the Kendeda Building for Innovative Sustainable Design won Category 2 – Building/Technology Systems as well as the Grand Prize!

The Engineering Excellence Awards is an annual design competition held by the American Council of Engineering Companies of Georgia (ACEC Georgia). The Engineering Excellence Awards recognize engineering achievements demonstrating the highest degree of merit and ingenuity. Entries are rated on the basis of uniqueness and originality; future value to the engineering profession; social, economic and sustainable development considerations; complexity; and successful fulfillment of client/owner’s needs.

The Kendeda Building for Innovative Sustainable Design is a $30M, 42,500 SF building that was integrated into the EcoCommons space on the Georgia Tech campus. This eco-friendly structure is among the greenest in the world for being “net positive” with its use of energy and water. In other words, the Kendeda Building generates more energy and captures more water than it uses.

Lord Aeck SargentPAE The Miller Hull Partnership, LLPBiohabitats , Newcomb & Boyd, LLPAndropogon Associates, Ltd.SkanskaGeorgia Institute of Technology and the Kendeda Fund were all part of the team that brought this project to life.
LONG (Atlas) provided Site Planning, Civil Engineering/Site Design/Stormwater Management and Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) from planning through construction.

We are very proud to have played a part of this important project and we would like to further congratulate the entire team!

We also want to congratulate our parent company Atlas on their notable projects that won in the following categories!

Category 7 – Transportation
Browns Bridge Road at Yellow River

Category 10 – Small Projects
Rockdale’s Lake Capri Bridge

Category 10 – Small Projects

Solar Farm with Long

 

Check out the attached pictures of the 1023-acre Agave Solar Field in Maricopa County, Arizona. Agave Solar was designed by Nicholas Sauer, EITDavid Mckenney, P.E.Ricardo Menchaca @Emory Redding, and Tepolak Seth, EIT Seth last year. The grading is almost complete, and piles are starting to be driven in. Part of the design included providing enough site storage to hold the 100-year 2-hour storm and the import of 1 million Cubic Yards of import fill dirt from the construction of an adjacent nuclear plant cooling pond into the overall site grading.

LONG also supported McCarthy Building Companies, Inc. during the project’s zoning application. A detailed hydrologic/hydraulic analysis for onsite and offsite flows was performed to document the potential impacts of the project on floodplain elevations.

This site was a challenge but LONG was able to exceed the client expectations.

A Hole In One!

Bobby Jones Golf Course has won the “Best in Atlanta Real Estate 2021 Renovation Award” by Atlanta Business Chronicle.

The golf course’s renovation was completed in 2020 and has transformed the course into the home of golf in Georgia.
The improvement includes a 9-hole reversible golf course, a parking garage, new clubhouse, and a signalized intersection for a new entrance off Northside Drive. Also included is the 23,241 square foot Murray Golf House containing Boone’s Restaurant, Georgia Golf Hall of Fame and the pro shop. The renovation included 6 surface tennis courts, and 6 tennis courts on the upper level of the 288-space parking deck supplementing the existing 12 courts at the adjacent Bitsy Grant Tennis Center, and a maintenance and cart storage building.

LONG provided the site design/civil engineering that included pedestrian/cart paths linking the Bitsy Grant Tennis Center, parking deck/tennis courts, Murray Golf House, practice facilities and golf course. LONG also designed the site stormwater management measures that included a micro-pool stormwater management facility, a bioretention area, and a bioslope filter.

Three additional bridges were required at the pedestrian/cart paths. LONG was responsible for determining each bridge’s dimensions based on stream width, developed bridge profiles and performed the hydraulic analysis utilizing HEC-RAS to analyze the impact of these bridges on flood levels, provided bridge scour prevention design and coordinated extensively with The PATH Foundation for their path system that encircles the golf course.

We are honored to see one of our projects being recognized by the by Atlanta Business Chronicle.
