PROJECT CONSTRUCTION DELIVERY
METHODOLOGY
Aller•Lingle•Massey Architects P.C. has considerable
experience working in all current project construction
delivery systems, including design/build (D/B),
construction manager at risk (CMAR) where the CM or GC
provides a guaranteed maximum price at a set point in
the design process, construction manager/general
contractor (CM/GC) where the CM or GC provides pre -
construction design -assist services, and traditional
design/bid/build methods. We have had successful
design and construction experiences with each of these,
as well as numerous "lessons learned" with each.
We understand that the FTA and the City of Fort Collins
will use a design/bid/build process for the South Transit
Center project.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
Aller•Lingle•Massey Architects P.C. carries professional
liability insurance with a limit of liability of $1,000,000
single claim; $2,000,000 aggregate.
Missoula Federal Credit Union
LEED NC v. 2.2 Goal: Platinum
The Missoula Federal Credit Union Russell branch is a 6,711 sq. ft., $2.6 million facility located in
Missoula, Montana. The effort to attain LEED Platinum certification for the Russell St branch is a result
of MFCU's commitment to social, environmental, and economic improvement.
The MFCU Russell branch is located in a mixed use area of Missoula with housing, commercial office,
retail and other services nearby. It is close to downtown and arterials that connect to other parts of
Missoula. The site was previously graded and contained an old railroad turntable. The MFCU Russell
project includes an auto banking drive -through, the Credit Union building, parking and native
landscaping. The building contains a main lobby and transaction counters, offices for Credit Union
officers and staff, auto banking teller area, conference room, break room, safe deposit, vault and other
banking functions.
The project has a number of notable green features and strategies including:
• Careful management of stormwater to prevent runoff or contamination of streams or ground
water.
• Building designed to use 40% less potable water with low -flow plumbing fixtures.
• Energy -efficient building shell, HVAC and lighting systems contribute to over 46% ($8,847
annual) energy savings, as compared to ASHRAE 90.1-2004 baseline.
• Building expected to produce at least 13% of its energy requirements from 12.48 kW PV array on
the roof.
• Areas for collection and storage of recyclables inside and out.
• Individual lighting control for occupants and roller shades on windows for control of sunlight
levels.
Brighton Middle School
LEED NC v. 2.2 Goal: Silver
Brighton Middle School is a new 138,200 sq. ft., $20.1 million educational facility in School District 27J
in Brighton, Colorado. This building will be the first LEED certified within the school district and is
intended to serve as a precedent for sustainable design of future schools. Due to its proximity to the
district's newly constructed high school, the two schools are able to share site resources such as an
irrigation pond for watering and playfield functions. This campus approach allows for reduced
requirements for site development.
The project has a number to notable green features and strategies including:
• 74% of site area will be preserved as open space for playfield and water quality measures,
qualifying the project for an Exemplary Performance credit.
• Efficient plumbing fixtures such as lavatory faucets and shower heads save approximately 36%
more water than the Energy Policy Act's baseline.
• Energy -efficient building shell, HVAC and lighting systems contribute to annual energy savings
of 40%, which will save Brighton Middle School nearly $100,000 per year.
• Building design allows views to the outside from 90% of the regularly occupied spaces in the
building.
• Full cut-off site lighting reduces nighttime light pollution

implementation based on demand savings opportunities
with the goal of reducing costs to achieve a one-year
simple payback. The majority of the RCx projects EMC
has completed in this program has had paybacks in less
than one year and are thus not eligible for incentives, but
they still cut demand and are implemented due to the
quick payback.
Recent projects include Wild Oats Markets in Denver and
Boulder, and Roche Pharmaceutical, Blue Cross/Blue
Shield, Qwest Communications, Aurora Medical Center,
Denver West, Cherry Creek Mall, Wells Fargo, Univ. of
Denver, Marriott, Front Range Community College.

SOUTH TRANSIT CENTER CONTEXT STATEMENT
Aller•Lingle•Massey Architects P.C. and BHA Design Inc.
The Mason Corridor will likely revolutionize the way
people think about transportation in Fort Collins.
Combined with a revised East/West Transfort bus route
configuration, mobility for citizens will improve
dramatically. Once in place, the average citizen will be
able to easily negotiate a transit system based on a
fundamental grid which corresponds with the basic
layout of our city. Over time, the addition of other key
Enhanced Travel Corridors such as Harmony and
Timberline Roads, mobility by transit will become so easy
that automobiles may no longer be the preferred mode
of transit. Now add to the mix access opportunities by
bicycle and foot, and alternative transit becomes even
easier.
The South Transit Center is one of the key links in the
development of this system. Located just south of
Harmony Road, the setting is terrific. The site is
beautiful and has the opportunity to capitalize on the
beauty of its former tenant, Fossil Creek Nursery, to
create a dynamic location which captures the scenic
beauty of vistas of the Front Range together with the
magnificence of existing trees. Combined, the two give
the site a setting that will make this a pleasant place to
come either by BRT, bicycle or automobile.
Contextually, the site makes sense on several levels.
First, it is adjacent to the Fossil Creek Bike Trail which
will eventually connect from Fossil Lake Natural Area,
west out to the foothills. Cyclists desiring to use the
transit center can easily ride off of main streets on a
delightful bike path directly to the center.
Second, the site is positioned to be a perfect anchor to a
TOD type of development which will serve as a superb
"end of line" project. The possibility in the future for the
site to be more intensively developed as a mixed -use
development with housing and office uses is excellent.
With good adjacency to College Avenue and Harmony
Road, as well as with the potential for redevelopment of
the existing WalMart site, the South Transit Center site
will serve as a catalyst for retail redevelopment in the
area.
The project also offers connectivity with Harmony Road,
depicted as a future Enhanced Travel Corridor, providing
the opportunity to have transit to the park-n-ride located
at Harmony and 1-25. An existing bus line which travels
on Harmony will be able to drop off and pick up
passengers at both the South Transit Center and the
park-n-ride at 1-25.
The setting of the site demands architecture which
responds to its beauty and the views to the west.
Contextually, buildings located here should bow to the
site and reflect upon the wonderful natural setting of the
property. Properly conceived, the potential for a unique
architectural and structural expression, bound together
with an inspired site and landscape design, the South
Transit Center can add to the already substantial
magnetism of its location.
And while discussing the architectural potential we
should not forget the opportunities to blend art into the
overall image. Working together with Art in Public
Places (APP), the design team would like to recognize
the tremendous potential of "Getting There is as Much
Fun As Being There", a slogan arising from the UniverCity
Transit and Mobility Group. While outside of this group's
geographic sphere of influence, it certainly could fall
into the same cognitive sphere. Interestingly, transit is
one of the best places to promote art and bring culture
to the population at large, from the transit in Paris,
France, to the recent art program of the Westside Light
Rail Public of TriMet in Portland, Oregon.

CONTEXT STATEMENT - 2
Lastly, this transit center will serve to activate develop-
ment all along the Mason Corridor. It will likely take a
few years but the timing could not be better. With
increasing development pressure along 1-25 and the
gradual loss of business along College Avenue, the Mason
Corridor and the South Transit Center will be a valuable
development magnet to re -attract business back to this
central location.

meeting through all aspects of construction
administration. We encourage a team -oriented,
collaborative effort in our design solutions. Our office is
designed in open "neighborhoods", with the principal's
offices dispersed through the studio areas to foster this
interaction.
Our staff's professional development is a very important
component of our practice. We mentor our younger
interns in all aspects of professional practice, involving
them in early marketing endeavors, contract and fee
negotiations, design development, contract documents
preparation including specifications, bidding/
construction administration and project close-out. We
encourage involvement in the Intern Development
Program, as well as continuing education opportunities
for our non -registered staff.
Aller•Lingle -Massey Architects P.C. is grounded in a
philosophy of quality design, yet remains responsive to
the business of architecture. Architecture combines the
best that science and art have to offer. It requires a
love for creation, to watch our designs transformed from
2-dimensional drawings into an actual structure in which
people will live, work or play. We take seriously the
obligations we have to our clients and the architectural
profession, as well as the role we play in designing
creative solutions that shape the built environment of
the communities in which we work.
C&S Freight Depot Downtown Transit Center
Fort Collins, Colorado
$1,869,600 • 2001
Client: City of Fort Collins, Colorado
Transportation Services Division
The Downtown Transit Center is a rehabilitation arid -adaptive reuse
of the 1906 C&S Railroad Freight Depot into a new downtown
multi -modal transit center. Users include the local Transfort and,,
other regional bus services, taxi and airport shuttle services and ,
office space for the City of Fort Collins' SMARTtrips program.
The administration portion of the depot was restored as office
space, retaining historic materials and detailing, while creating
a modern office environment. Light wells and transom
windows were designed to honor the original window
openings and capture natural light for interior offices.
The freight warehouse end of the building was more loosely
adapted for ticketing, information, waiting and support spaces for
the transit center uses. The soaring volume of the warehouse was
retained, with the exposed steel trusses reinforced and painted to
enhance the architectural character of the space. The original
lantern skylight was recreated atop the building, bathing the
interior lobby spaces with natural light. Interior historical features
were retained in the rehabilitation design, including the original
freightmaster's office.
The exterior of the building was meticulously restored, including
repointing brick masonry, refurbishing doors, windows and sectional
freight doors, and replacement of a variety of historic glasses.
New site structures were designed to complement the forms and
materials of the historic depot. Bus shelters feature sloped roofs
suspended by steel rods from brick and sandstone columns,
reminiscent of the original gullwing canopies over the freight
platform. A brick and sandstone colonnade, central clock tower
and preservation of Annie's gravesite create an urban edge for
the project along Mason Street.
Urban design elements, created by BHA Design, Inc., reinforce the
multi -modal aspects of the site by incorporating whimsical elements
such as bicycle wheels into the site signage. Kinetic steel sculptures
by Andy Dufford are also incorporated into the shelters as a part of
the City's Art in Public Places program.
Professional services included programming and full architectural
and engineering services.

BHA Design, Inc.
Company Profile
BHA Design Inc. is a landscape architecture firm with eleven full-time landscape architects
and one administrative staff. We provide a wide variety of design and entitlement services to
our clients ranging from sign design, image development, landscape architecture, master
planning, urban design, streetscape design, public outreach and entitlements to both public
and private clients.
We have three core values. We feel our core values are essential ingredients to creating a
better world and we try to incorporate these values into each of our designs:
Sustainability
Therapy
Fun
Sustainable Design- Americans consume 25% of the earth's resources and yet we represent
only 4% of the World population. We are clearly the earth's largest consumers. There is a
growing trend in the United States to reduce our ecological footprint. BHA is embracing this
trend by adopting a major philosophy of incorporating sustainable site principles into our
designs.
Therapeutic Design - One of the best ways to reach our spiritual selves is through the
landscape. A hike in the alpine, sailing on a lake, or running on a backcountry trail are all
ways to feel more closely attuned to both our environment and our spirits. Through the sense
of peace that comes from these activities we make a better world. BHA strives to provide this
experience in the built landscape. If we do our work properly, we think that users of the
landscape at our sites will have this experience in their everyday work and living environment.
Fun - What better than to laugh? Laughter fills our souls with happiness and makes us glad
=~`
for our existence. We feel fun is an integral part of life and should be experienced by all
(-- --- --
people. In each of our designs we try to bring a smile to someone. Through whimsical ideas
P
we bring a sense of well-being and try to lighten each person's day.
Operating Philosophies - From an operational perspective we focus on two basic tenets:
Innovation and Customer Service. Innovation to us means striving to provide our clients with
responsive designs that are unique, attractive, economically sound, and contextually sensitive.
Our second major philosophy, Customer Service, means more than just meeting deadlines
and budgets, although those certainly are significant. It also means providing our clients with
constructive recommendations and constantly searching for ways in which to provide better
solutions. Friendliness and courtesy are essential ingredients of our means of
communication. BHA was selected from a number of finalists as one of the most ethical firms
in Colorado.

BHA Design worked with the City of Fort Collins Engin-
eering Department to develop improvements along Taft
Hill Road between Drake Road and Horsetooth Road.
The streetscape design for the road widening project
incorporated extensive public participation and required
a close working relationship with residents and business
owners. The project included streetscape and median
design as well as trail design for the extension of the
Spring Creek pedestrian trail. This complex project
included preservation of existing mature trees and
incorporating adjacent resident wishes while still meeting
the geometric requirements of an arterial street and the
flood control requirements of Spring Creek.

Fort Collins Downtown River District
Streetscape Project
Primary Project Description
HDR was hired to evaluate roadway, utility and streetscape needs and develop
preliminary design plans for infrastructure improvements related to the Downtown River
District. These plans will provide the basis for urban design for the revitalization of part
of the downtown Fort Collins area. Critical issues include pedestrian mobility, parking
location and supply, stakeholder involvement and agency coordination.
The project site is the original encampment of the city of Fort Collins and currently is
home to agricultural, industrial, office and retail space. As such, the preferred alternative
and preliminary design plans must incorporate the needs of existing uses, the historic
fabric of the area, and the areas redevelopment potential as a new and vibrant lower
downtown. To meet this challenge, HDR has employed a three -tiered stakeholder
involvement approach that involves various stakeholders at strategic points throughout the
process. Involving key agency representatives and land owners at critical times during
concept development, the final product will be a framework plan and preliminary
streetscape designs that will have acceptance and conformed consent to revitalize this part
of downtown.

Parking Lot - Phases I and II Expansion
Primary Project Description
Phase I
Record growth at DIA and an improved flight market increased demand for inexpensive parking.
In response, DIA proposed a 3,000-space remote parking lot designed for the economical traveler.
HDR was retained to design the facility as an inexpensive option to close -in parking. The lot is
comprised of 21 acres of surface parking located southwest of the main terminal. The new facility
includes separate access points with bus -only shuttle lanes to facilitate improved shuttle operations
and bus priority routes to the terminal. The lot uses counter -clockwise bus circulation with stops at
eight shelters. It uses an independent revenue control and security system to provide a safe and
secure public parking facility. The final design is expandable to varying levels to provide 7,000
additional spaces. Project challenges included a fast -track design and bidding process, tower sight -
line compliance, water quality storm sewer system, and access designed for public and commercial
traffic. Future flexibility for future site access, lot expansions, and warehouse traffic access were
included.
Phase II
The 2005 Phase II expansion brought the total capacity at the site to approximately 9,000 spaces. It
required a fast -track design schedule that enabled construction to be awarded in April with
construction completion in November, before the demands of the holiday season. Beyond general
civil design (subbase and base design, pavement design, grading, drainage, striping, and storm
sewer), HDR was also responsible for ADA compliance, bus stop platforms, heated bus stop
shelters, high mast and low mast parking lot lighting, detailed signage system, storm water
permitting, and AVI systems for parking control. The project also required close coordination for
Xcel Energy tie-ins, telecom system, Qwest tie-ins, and Denver Water potable water system.
HDR completed design in February with submission of a full PS&E package (bid plans,
specifications and an engineers construction cost estimate), assisted with the bid processes through
the award in April, and participated in the weekly construction review meetings until construction
completion in November. Additionally, HDR was required to review all submittals and shop
drawings, address all change orders and producing as -built documents.

performed capacity analysis at ramp terminals and cross road intersections and developed
lighting criteria, lighting plans and evaluated solar lighting as an option to conventional
power. HDR developed signing and striping plans for the Nevada Approach and
interchange and prepared a special study to determine pedestrian walkway feasibility on
the Colorado River bridges, appropriate pedestrian elements for the facility and parking
layout requirements to access the pedestrian viewing.

Study
The City of Gastonia, NC hired HDR to evaluate the requirements
and create a conceptual design concept for a new multimodal
passenger facility in downtown Gastonia. The center would
establish a hub for Gastonia Transit, express bus service to Charlotte,
Amtrak, and Greyhound service. Future accommodations for
commuter rail service and high-speed rail were also analyzed.
The City previously identified a large area where a multimodal
center could be located just east of the historic downtown. The site
has two rail lines and several businesses that need to be
accommodated by any development plans. .Local business owners
and citizens participated in the study by brainstorming site concepts
during a community workshop.
HDR developed estimates of the ticketing / baggage space needs;
waiting room / departure lounge seating and standing requirements;
number of bus bays and train loading zones; and parking needs.
Opportunities for supporting non -transportation uses that could be
incorporated into the station development were also identified.
Pedestrian, bicycle, and vehicle circulation patterns were considered,
and the conceptual facility layout was designed to consider access to
downtown. Rail alignments were determined that provided sufficient
length for passenger platforms and necessary junctions between the
two freight lines. Conceptual cost estimates were prepared.
A site master plan will be prepared showing track locations; building
siting; and conceptual development pads. Associated visualizations
and renderings will also be developed to better illustrate the
development concept.

I n t e r m o d a l Facility Planning
Hennipen County, MN hired HDR to evaluate the requirements for a
new multimodal passenger facility in downtown Minneapolis,
adjacent to the new Minnesota Twins Ballpark. This study
determined the space requirements for the operation of six passenger
modes — light -rail transit; commuter rail; high-speed rail; intercity
rail; local bus services and a greenway/bike trail.
Four quadrants at the intersection of the Hiawatha LRT and
Northstar Commuter Rail lines were examined, including the
southeast quadrant where the Minnesota Twins Ballpark is under
construction. Options for the use of each quadrant and connectivity
to surrounding areas were developed.
HDR developed estimates of the ticketing / baggage space needs;
waiting room / departure lounge seating and standing requirements;
number of bus bays and train loading zones; parking needs; and
space requirements and mix of retail that the transit patronage could
support. Patron and vehicle circulation patterns were considered and
the conceptual facility layout was designed to minimize walking
distances for transfers among the modes and for access to downtown.
Included in the planning was an estimate of the space requirements
necessary to accommodate passenger queuing during sold -out events
at the Twins Ballpark. Conceptual cost estimates were prepared.
This study was on a fast track in order to determine the potential
funding requirement for the upcoming SAFETEA-LU
reauthorization. To meet the tight timeframe, the planning work was
condensed into a week-long planning charrette/workshop. Staff were
on -site for the entire week and produced a final presentation to the
County Commissioners at the end. A four -page executive summary
was produced as a marketing piece for elected officials' use.

Development Strategy
The City of Raleigh, NC hired HDR to evaluate the requirements for
a new multimodal passenger facility within downtown. This study
determined the space requirements for the operation of six passenger
modes — Amtrak intercity rail; high-speed rail; regional commuter
rail; intercity bus service; regional bus service; and local bus
services. Additionally, the study prepared a development strategy
for the area immediately surrounding the station, including
recommendations on a phased implementation of new development.
As part of the analysis, HDR developed estimates of the ticketing /
baggage space needs; waiting room / departure lounge seating and
standing requirements; number of bus bays and train loading zones;
parking needs; and space requirements and mix of retail that the
transit patronage could support. Patron and vehicle circulation
patterns were considered and the conceptual facility layout was
designed to minimize walking distances for transfers among the
modes and for access to downtown. Conceptual cost estimates were
prepared.
The economic development tasks created a "Frame of Reference"
FoRsm and preliminarily test for the lowest acceptable and maximum
allowable build -out (including the general mix of uses within the
structures, numbers of units, total square footages of uses, number of
parking spaces etc.). Extensive interviewing with area stakeholders
and developers occurred to develop realistic alternatives.
HDR analyzed the development options to assess the overall
financial and economic feasibility using future market conditions
scenarios. Within market realities, HDR prepared a costibenefit
analysis that addressed and maximized the revenues to be received
by the City, County and State (i.e. property tax, sales tax, food and
room taxes, potential parking revenues, property sales and leases.

Land Surveying Services
Land surveying is the art of taking a written legal description, normally provided by a title company, and
showing where that legal description is on the ground, typically by monumenting the survey with rebar or some
•
fairly stable marker. When monumenting the survey on the ground, it is the surveyor's responsibility to report
•
any encroachments by any adjoining properties and point out any overlaps or gaps in the adjoining properties'
legal descriptions. This procedure is called boundary surveying. There are several other services provided by
•
King Surveyors that fall under the category of land surveying including:
Site Plans
Easement Preparation
•
Improvement Surveys
ALTA Surveys
Subdivisions
Oil and Gas Well Surveys
Topographical Services:
•
A topographical survey can be described as a survey, which can include existing structures, natural features or
general layout of the land being measured and plotted on paper or in a computer environment as a map. These
imaps
can then be used for design or planning purposes. Examples of these are:
Route Surveys
Topographic Surveys
•
Photogrammetric Surveys
Architectural Surveys
GPS Control Surveys
0 Asbuilt Surveys
Construction Staking:
•
Construction Staking is performed when a surveyor takes data from a set of plans typically provided by an
•
engineer, planner or architect and marks the information on the ground, usually with wooden stakes, to show
contractors where to build or excavate. Construction Staking is required for various aspects of construction
•
including:
Subdivision Staking
Utility Staking

GEOTECHNICAL SERVICES
Geotechnical Design
Yeh & Associates Team engineers and geologist
have worked throughout the western U.S. We
understand the geologic conditions, both soils
and rock, and how they apply to the construction
of buildings, roads, bridges, tunnels, and
retaining walls. We are very experienced in the
remediation of landslides and rock fall problems
and in the most current retaining wall design
practice.
Our in-depth knowledge of drilling methods
allows us to realistically scope geotechnical
projects and to efficiently complete subsurface
exploration programs in any setting. Our
geologists are 40 hours HAZWOPER trained to
handle hazardous materials during drilling. Our
experience provides an advantage by having a
staff that know the geotechnical properties of a
wide range of geologic formations and their
derivative soils.
Foundation Design
Following a subsurface exploration program, the
most appropriate foundation system is selected
based on geologic and groundwater conditions,
lateral and vertical load demands, and
construction considerations. We have extensive
experience with commercial buildings, small
bridge projects in complex geologic conditions as
well as multi -span bridge structures. Foundation
systems include spread footings, driven or drilled
piles, micropiles, drilled shafts and composite
systems incorporating deep foundations with
ground anchors. We also provide MSE abutment
recommendations for bridges and provide
analysis using the software MSEW.
Because of our experience working for various
public and private agencies, we are familiar with
the policies and procedures for providing
geotechnical design recommendations according
to the most current requirements.
Retaining Wall Design
We are experienced in designing all types of wall
systems, including: concrete cantilever walls,
ground anchor walls, MSE walls, gravity wall
systems, soils nail walls, soldier pile walls,
drilled shaft walls, and micropile walls. Our
design of the most appropriate wall type for a cut
or fill is typically based on the soils and
groundwater conditions and the aesthetics, cost,
and performance considerations prescribed by
our clients.
IrA
Geotechnical Engineering
and Environmental Services
Wall design analysis and recommendations are
provided in accordance with the most current
design requirements. Our MSE wall design
utilizes the recently released
program MSEW and our soil nail design
procedures follow the Manual for Design and
Construction Monitoring of Soil Nail Walls.
Environmental Site Assessment
Yeh and Associates provides hazardous materials
contamination evaluation for site development of
various complexities. The study could extend
from the simple initial site assessment (ISA) to
preliminary site investigation (PSI). We are very
familiar with the procedures outlined in the DOT
revised more in-depth Modified Environmental
Site Assessment (MESA). We have successfully
completed many ISA, and PSI for many
commercial property evaluations as well as
transportation related MESA study for major
interchanges, highways, and street intersections.
Pavement Design
Pavement design recommendations will be
provided for review and compliance with local
governing agency. Localized areas of poor
subgrade that have been identified will receive
specific recommendations including over
excavation and replacement with select material
and/or reinforcement with geosynthetics. Many
of the staff members at Yeh & Associates have
extensive experience working on many projects
involving pavement design and subgrade
rehabilitation projects.
Geotechnical Instrumentation
We provide services in geotechnical
instrumentation according to the requirements of
the specific project. We can utilize a variety of
instrumentation methods to measure conditions
such as settlement, lateral movement, structural
distortion, soil and rock slopes, water pressure,
soil pressure and foundation response. Methods
can include: inclinometers, settlement gauges,
tiltmeters, tape extensometer, jointmeters,
piezometers and time domain reflectrometry
(TDR). These systems can be read
conventionally or continually through remote
data acquisition units.
Materials Testing and Analysis
Yeh & Associates has in-house laboratories
located in the Denver metro area and Western
Slope. The labs are fully- equipped and staffed
with trained, qualified personnel and overseen by
a registered engineer. The laboratories are
capable of performing soil and rock properties
tests and an array of asphalt, concrete, masonry
and steel tests.
Our staff of field technicians and inspectors
provides quality control/quality assurance for
projects of varying size and complexity.
Technicians are trained and certified to provide a
full spectrum of material testing services
including soil density/moisture, pavement density
control, asphalt content, and concrete design
compliance. Our testing/inspection staff is
experienced in serving both private and public
sector clients.
Other Geotechnical Issues
We have unique experience that allows us to
provide fast, cost-effective solutions to any
geotechnical related issue while maintaining the
highest quality deliverables. All of projects
begin with proper planning, developing and
managing field explorations. By using geologic
maps, performing site reconnaissance and
researching the past uses of the site, we can
evaluate any potential impacts that may arise
during construction. These methods can also be
used to locate the most probable sites to yield
quality hard rock and aggregate sources. We
have participated in environmental assessment
procedures by providing impact evaluation of
mine waste, geologic hazards and wetland
mitigation alternates.

LEED CERTIFIED PROJECTS
The Ballard Group, Inc. has participated in many LEED certified facilities over the past several years
including what we believe to be the first platinum certified recreation building (Washtenaw Community
•
College Fitness Center) and several silver and certified projects. What we have found to date is that
most of our past projects have many green strategies incorporated into their designs, but it wasn't
until the LEED point system and energy analysis that this became evident. It is The Ballard Group's
•
philosophy that our knowledge on past projects should be used on every future project possible with
regards to green energy saving strategy. The Ballard Group's intent is to offer every project a list of
•
green/energy saving strategies that the owner can review and decide which strategies best suits the
project. Based on our experience with certified/ green design we feel confident that our knowledge can
help the owner obtain the best project possible for the desired construction and operational budget.

They have developed an extensive resume of office facilities in the Rocky Mountain region.
Their portfolio includes projects at many local universities such as Colorado State University and
the University of Colorado as well as sustainable office buildings like the 128,300 square foot
LEED Silver Federal Department of Transportation building in Lakewood, Colorado.
Innovative Electrical Systems, Inc has teamed with Aller-Lingle-Massey Architects to provide
lighting, power, and systems design for the Indoor Practice Facility and the Academic &
Training Center projects at Colorado State University which are currently under construction.

ELECTRICAL ENERGY AND EFFICIENCY
INNOVATIVE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS STORY
Innovative Electrical Systems Inc., due to the rising costs of energy and building
maintenance, has made a concerted effort over the last few years to provide energy
efficient and maintenance -friendly design.
Many buildings today are being designed to LEED standards of efficiency. IES, Inc. has
taken the position of closely working with the building's end user and the Architect to
first understanding the building use and function then implementing simple and
affordable lighting control strategies. These strategies may include the use of occupancy
sensors, multi -level switching, dimming, and automatic lighting shut-off via relay panels,
photocells and/or building automation systems. If the construction budget allows,
automatic daylighting controls may also be introduced to take advantage of natural
daylight entering the building.
The International Energy Conservation Code is now the basis for lighting design in most
regions of the country and the watts per square foot allowances of the IECC generally
become stricter with each new edition. IES Inc. takes pride in the fact that we meet or
exceed the IECC requirements on all our project designs.
Along with the efforts made in lighting control we have focused attention on building
maintenance. Care is taken in luminaire and lamp selection at the design level in order to
reduce the owner's lamp inventory and maximize lamp life.
Other areas of care taken are providing the most efficient design and minimizing the
owner's risk. Two ways to reduce the chance of costly repairs due to utility power
disturbances and lightning are to specify phase loss protection on distribution equipment
serving large motor loads and transient voltage surge suppression at the electrical service
gear. IES Inc. also encourages the use of "soft start" or variable frequency drives for
large pool and mechanical equipment motor starters. Although this does increase the
initial cost of the project, these starters allow the motors to operate more efficiently over
the lifespan of the building.
TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS
ENGLEWOOD TOWN CENTER
Englewood, Colorado
This project consisted of a light rail RTD Station with a RTD Park-n-Ride lot, several
public parking lots, a RTD bus stop, bridge access to RTD train and street lighting.
BOULDER TRANSPORTATION CENTER
Boulder, Colorado
This project was a mixed use of public parking and the RTD Boulder bus terminal which
included a waiting area, RTD office, restroom facilities and RTD driver facilities.
E-470 TOLL BOOTH
Aurora, Colorado
This project added lightning protection and a grounding system to the toll booth and
adjacent support building to help protect the electronic equipment.
SUSTAINABLE DESIGN PROJECTS (PAST 4 YEARS)
NORTHSIDE AZTLAN COMMUNITY CENTER
Ft. Collins, Colorado
This 49,000 square foot community center project was completed in the fall of 2007. The
original sustainable design goal set forth by the City of Ft. Collins was LEED Silver. The project
ended up getting enough credits to be awarded LEED Gold by the USGBC. IES, Inc. contributed
to this achievement by providing an energy efficient lighting and controls design along with
minimizing exterior light pollution.
COLORADO STATE UNIVERSITY -
ACADEMIC AND TRAINING CENTER
Ft. Collins, Colorado
Construction on this project began very recently. The 16,000 square foot building is an addition
to the existing Moby Arena on the main campus of CSU. The building serves two vital functions
for the student -athletes. The west side will be used for academic work/ studying and the east side
houses a large weight room. The design team is currently in the process of submitting the project
for LEED certification with the goal of attaining a Gold rating.
COLORADO STATE UNIVERSITY -
INDOOR PRACTICE FACILITY
Ft. Collins, Colorado
Construction on this project began several months ago. The 65,000 square foot Indoor Practice

DESIGN TEAM AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT - 5
personnel throughout the project and having the
principal personally involved in all phases, we can
maintain continuity with the client and minimize errors
due to miscommunication and misunderstanding.
Our proposed team of consultants shares our commit-
ment to innovation, design creativity, sustainability and
exceptional client service. Before we begin the initial
programming or design phases for any project, we
establish a clear scope of work for each consultant, using
the client's input, and coordinate these with the other
members of the design team to assure that all aspects of
the project are being addressed, but without any
unneeded overlap of effort.
SCHEDULING
We establish milestone schedules for internal design
team reviews and set regular progress meetings of the
entire design team to facilitate decision -making and to
track the project's progress toward meeting our schedule
commitments. We have established in-house project
management policies and implementation strategies for
the review and coordination of our consultants' drawings,
specifications and other supporting documentation with
the work produced by our firm.
We have established parameters for communications
throughout the project, maintaining Alter. Lingle -Massey
Architects P.C.'s principal -in -charge or project manager
as the point for all communications coordination.
Our current workloads are consistent, but not excessive.
We have the in-house capabilities to meet your schedule
expectations.
COMPUTER -GENERATED DOCUMENTS
Alter. Lingle -Massey Architects P.C. and our team of design
consultants employ the latest technologies in computer -
aided architectural design and document preparation.
These tools enable our design staffs to produce
documents of the highest quality and accuracy, while
allowing greater flexibility in our creative design and
problem -solving tasks.
Alter. Lingle -Massey Architects P.C. and our team of
consultants utilizes Revit 2009 and AutoCAD Version 2009
software, all with networking capabilities. Revit is a 3-
dimensional CAD platform that allows all aspects of a
project to be designed and coordinated with 3-D
visualizations, while creating the construction documents
for the project. The program creates conceptual 3-D
graphic representations that can be used to explore
alternative building design styles, materials, finishes,
colors and systems early in the design process, then create
fully modeled CAD renderings in later design phases. A
Canon iPF 700 full -color plotter, Savin 2400 WD
engineering scanner/copier and Xerox Docucolor 252 color
printer/copier complete the hardware used in our
document production.
We have developed an extensive system of computerized
Microsoft Word master specifications, providing our project
managers and design staff access to accurate and up-to-
date documents for use in a wide range of project types.
These master specifications are regularly updated to keep
pace with changing technologies and to respond to
workmanship and quality control issues that have been
encountered during construction of our current projects.
Our consultants use computer software programs for tasks
such as structural load calculations, energy modeling and
energy analysis, daylighting studies, structural systems
comparative analysis, and cost control and estimating.
QUALITY CONTROL
Quality control is a top priority of our firm.
Aller•Lingle -Massey Architects P.C. has implemented an
in-house quality assurance plan for each of the project's
design phases, including an independent review at the
end of each phase by one of the firm's principals not
managing the project. We encourage our design staff
and consultants to develop and organize the construction
documents in a consistent and logical progression,
related to the anticipated sequence of construction or
site development, fostering an appreciation for what
they would need on the jobsite if they were the
contractor.
We have also implemented construction phase and post -
construction reviews with our design staff to assess the
quality, completeness, accuracy and constructability of
the design and construction documents produced for
each project. Our goal is to not allow our project
management skills and policies to become static, instead
to be continually improving based upon our current
experience.

Northside Aztlan Community Rec Center
LEED NC v. 2.1 Rating: Gold
The Northside Aztlan Community Center in Fort Collins, Colorado is a 48,740 sq. ft.,
$9.7 million multipurpose recreation facility that replaces an existing 15,000 sq. ft.
recreation center on the same site. Programmed spaces include a 3-court gymnasium with
elevated running track, fitness center, aerobics/dance studio, community meeting rooms
with catering kitchen, classrooms and computer labs, intergenerational activity room,
locker rooms and administrative support spaces. A key component of the site design
required the existing facility to remain open during construction of the new facility,
necessitating an intricate, multi -phased construction process.
The project has a number of notable `green' features and strategies including:
• The Project site is a `Brownfield' that was a city dump where open burning of garbage
and other debris occurred until the 1960s. The site was remediated via removal of
contaminated material prior to constructing the new building.
• Energy -efficient building shell, HVAC and lighting systems contribute to annual energy
savings of 31 % over ASHRAE 90.1-1999, which will save the City of Fort Collins over
$20,000 per year.
• Full cut-off site lighting to reduce nighttime light pollution, consistent with Fort Collins'
stringent standards.
• Native and adapted plant species and high efficiency irrigation systems contribute to a
water savings of 52%.
• Efficient plumbing fixtures, such as dual flush toilets, low -flow faucets and
showerheads, and waterless urinals, contribute to a water savings of 44% (720,700
gallons per year).
• Diversion of over 95% of the waste generated during construction from the landfill and
to recycling, reuse or salvage, qualifying for both Construction Waste Management
points and an Innovation point.
• Regional materials from within 500 miles comprise over 27% of the material cost, and
Recycled content materials comprise over 17% of the material cost. The project was
awarded a total of 4 credits in Materials & Resources and 2 Innovation in Design
Credits.
• Eastern Washington University Student Sports and Recreation Center
LEED NC v. 2.1 Rating: Silver
The Student Sport and Recreation Center at EWU is a new 113,000 sq. ft., $20.5 million multipurpose
recreation facility. The site originally had single -story married student housing circa 1960 and parking
• lots which were deconstructed and recycled to make way for the new Sport and Recreation center. The
• programmed spaces include a 3-court gymnasium with elevated running track, over 15,000 square feet of
strength training area and cardio area, 38` climbing wall, sports bar, an ice rink, EPIC (the EWU Outdoor
• Adventure Program), student offices and meeting areas, locker rooms and administrative support spaces,
• and a parking garage for 44 vehicles.
The project has a number of notable green features and strategies including:
• • 100% of the parking is in a covered parking garage at the Lower Level.
• • Over 87% of the roof meets LEED requirements for Energy Star and emissivity, resulting in
• lower cooling costs.
• Full cut-off site lighting reduces nighttime light pollution.
• Native and adapted plant selections and high efficiency irrigation systems
contribute to irrigation water savings of 71 %.
• • Efficient plumbing fixtures, such as dual flush toilets, low -flow faucets and showerheads, and
waterless urinals contribute to a water savings of 47% (564,480 gallons per year), qualifying for
both Water Efficiency WE 3 points and ID 1.3 Exemplary Performance in Water Efficiency.
i
• • Energy -efficient building shell, HVAC and lighting systems contribute to annual energy savings
of 24.7% compared to a ASHRAE 90.1-1999 base case, which will save EWU over $39,000 per
year.
• • Recycled content materials comprise over 23% of the cost of the materials used, qualifying for
both MR 4 Recycled Content points and ID 1.1 Exemplary Performance in Recycled Content.
• • Regional materials manufactured within 500 miles comprise over 40% of the cost of the materials
used, and of that number over 88% was also extracted, harvested or recovered locally. This
qualifies the project for both MR 5 Regional Materials points and ID 1.4 Exemplary Performance
in Regional Materials.
0 The design also allows views to the outside from 96% of the regularly occupied spaces in the
�I building.

Valor Christian Schools
LEED NC v. 2.2 Goal: Gold
Valor Christian School is a college preparatory high school with an educational philosophy grounded in a
biblical worldview and a commitment to environmental stewardship. The Academics building is a 90,000
sq. ft. three-story structure including 43 classrooms, 8 science labs and a 5,300 square foot library with
direct views of the Rocky Mountains. The 62,280 sq. ft. Athletics complex is home to two regulation size
gymnasiums, a wrestling room, fitness classroom, locker rooms and concession stands. The cornerstone
element of this building is the 5,000 square foot Commons, used as a dining space and also for large
group meetings. Full height glass walls and heavy timber construction create a beautiful space that opens
to the landscape, connecting with the manicured plaza on the campus as well as the entire Front Range of
the Rocky Mountains.
The project has a number of notable `green' features and strategies including:
The Academic Building utilizes Thermal Displacement Ventilation (TDV) to enhance the thermal
comfort and indoor air quality. Systems like these, and other energy efficiency measures, enabled
the Athletics and Academics buildings to save 34.7% in annual energy costs, and 50.4% in annual
energy use compared to a code -compliant baseline.
• Valor Christian Schools will operate on 70% green power, showing their commitment to reduce
the environmental impacts of their operations.
• Valor desired a complete strategy for good indoor air quality for the Academics and Athletics
buildings to protect the health of the students and staff. As a result, the design team and
contractor have implemented a comprehensive IAQ strategy, including documentation of LEED
credit for reduction of all four low -emitting material types, both Construction IAQ credits,
outdoor air delivery monitoring, indoor chemical and pollutant source control and thermal
comfort.
• Recycled content materials comprise over 23% of the cost of materials and regional materials
comprise over 24% of the cost of materials, both of which qualify for Exemplary Performance
credits.
The landscape design was based on landscape climate zones, soil type and watering efficiencies.
Native grasses and wildflowers were utilized to reflect Colorado's Front Range landscape. These
strategies, together with high -efficiency irrigation systems, resulted in annual water savings of
81 % over the baseline.
