Completed Project

Construction and staking for the new UCCU branch office in the growing city of Vineyard, Utah now complete. Yeah!

By Completed Project

Meridian recently performed the construction layout of the site including hardscapes and utilities for Utah Community Credit Union (UCCU) Branch at Vineyard off 622 North Mill Road.  This building designed by WPA Architecture will serve as an easy-access financial institution for members and employees to use with its convenient drive-through banking services.ng as part of the architectural engineering design team lead by Naylor Wentworth and Lund Architects worked together to collaborate a dynamic, tech-friendly, two-story educational facility constructed by Hughes Construction.

 

Construction surveying is an important part of the construction process. The layout of this project included rough grade staking, curb and gutter, utilities, and building layout. Meridian provided Warner & Associates Construction staking reports for each item staked during the course of the project in order to provide a smooth build for the Owner.

Liberty Elementary completes construction in Ogden, Utah

By Completed Project

The school site formerly known as TO Smith has been rebuilt as the newly named Liberty Elementary in Ogden School District.  The school will be complete and open for the upcoming 2022 -2023 school year to serve K-6th grade students.

Meridian Engineering as part of the architectural engineering design team lead by Naylor Wentworth and Lund Architects worked together to collaborate a dynamic, tech-friendly, two-story educational facility constructed by Hughes Construction.

 

Our role began with design grade surveying, boundary analysis, and subdivision platting. Civil design included site layout, utility, hydrologic study and grading and drainage plans. The site includes parking, easy access bus and parent drop off zones, and new play fields and playgrounds.  In addition, Meridian provided site utility design for all new sewer, water, storm drain connections and construction site observation.

Meridian survey crew chief, Mo Sykes, initiated this project with a design topography survey of the stadium area prior to the proposed turf installation for the football field and track re-surfacing.  Our civil engineering team used the survey data to overlay the play field design elements. Following that design phase, Heather Butler, survey crew chief, returned for construction layout and one last verification of the surface to ensure the football field is ready for turf to be placed. This verification is part of our process to confirm the required accuracy of the new field is achieved for the proposed turf.

 

 

Meridian survey crew travels to Garfield County this week to gather existing bridge structural data for future replacement.

By Project Progress

Meridian’s LiDAR manager and Professional Land Surveyor, Brian Boehmer, gets the credit for these crisp clean views while surveying the existing bridge structure over Henrieville Wash and SR-12 just northeast of Henrieville, Utah. The goal with gathering these scans will be to create 3D CAD models of the existing structure for use by the roadway and structural design teams. 

To accomplish this activity, Meridian scanned both existing structures utilizing terrestrial LiDAR methods – LiDAR = Light, Detection and Ranging. The use of remote sensing technology is used to provide a detailed point cloud and subsequent 3D Model of the existing structures to expedite design workflows for the team.

In Brian’s words, “The best part of field work away from the office is the wonderful views and landscapes. Being in an area with no cell service is a close second!”

 

 

Harbor Point Elementary construction complete for the growing city of Saratoga Springs, Utah

By Completed Project

Located at 4189 East Schooner Drive, Saratoga Springs, the new elementary was placed on an undeveloped site with a grand view of Utah Lake to the east. As part of the architectural engineering design team for Alpine School District lead by VCBO Architecture, Meridian Engineering provided the survey, civil site layout, utility plans, drainage, grading, and subdivision plats for collaboration of a beautiful, tech-friendly, two-story educational facility.

Our role began with design grade surveying, boundary analysis, amended subdivision platting. Civil design included site grading and drainage plans for two parking lots, bus and parent drop of zones, and two new play fields.  In addition, Meridian provided site utility design for all new sewer, water, and storm drain connections. To provide access to the school, Meridian designed two new roadways, Captain Street and Schooner Drive, as well as the widening of Redwood Road for a left turn lane. The roads were included in accordance with city standards and a traffic study as part of the design. The new school was constructed by Hogan Construction and opened August 2021.
