Cedar County Transit

KPE provided architectural and engineering design for a new transportation facility. The facility is a pre-engineered metal building with a 8,500 SF indoor parking garage for the county transportation vehicles and a wash bay for cleaning. The space also includes a 1,200 SF office area which was required to be separated from the parking with a two-hour firewall. It includes offices, a conference/training room, and restrooms. The parking garage required ventilation and a gas detection system for monitoring carbon monoxide. KPE assisted with the bid process and performed Contract Administration / Construction Observation (CA/CO).

Deliver

  • KPE’s planners and designers develop and implement specialized solutions to achieve your ideal educational environment.
  • Our high percentage of licensed design staff, 65%, ensure tasks are done right the first time.
  • KPE professionals have a wide range of experience including educational and office spaces.

Assess

  • KPE professionals help clients define priorities by accurately assessing existing facilities and listening to community and educational values.
  • We provide data and options for you to simply understand the best step forward in achieving your educational needs.
  • The same team drawing your construction documents are also involved in our Forensic Investigations, which means assessing design errors and construction defects on projects designed and constructed by other firms.
  • This gives KPE designers more insight on existing buildings and allows us to more accurately prepare for otherwise potentially costly changes.

Listen

  • We exchange ideas, share expertise and – above all – we listen. Through open, candid communication, we gain consensus and create truly successful design.
  • Having all architects and engineers under the same roof allows quick and efficient communication. This efficiency is accomplished by orderly internal design coordination meetings, frequent communication between departments, documentation of decisions, and frequent detailed reports to owners.
  • We engage our clients in a collaborative dialogue throughout the process. Successful projects begin with strong relationships.
