Recently, Meridian survey crews performed ALTA/NSPS Land Title Surveys, retraced Public Land Survey System (PLSS) monuments, and collected base mapping data for two individual projects located in Idaho Falls and Swan Valley. Despite the chilly temperatures in the low teens, our dedicated crews braved the elements while delivering detailed field notes back to the office to be used for further boundary analysis as well as future design purposes.
Meridian, a trusted partner in construction surveying recently performed the construction layout and staking of the entire site including hardscapes and utilities for the 85,000 SF concrete tilt-up building located at 2150 West Waterbury Drive, Lehi, Utah. This building will serve CADE as an easy-load in-load out docks, truck court and warehouse space dedicated to production and distribution of cabinetry products for new residential communities.
Construction surveying is an important part of the construction process. The layout of this project included rough grade staking, curb and gutter, utilities, building and hardscape layout. Meridian provided Zwick Construction staking reports for each item staked during the project in order to provide a smooth build for the Owner. We look forward to witnessing the positive impact this facility will have on the community and the continuous growth of Lewis Landing.
Meridian recently performed daily track monitoring and reporting for the Jack and Bore Crossing under the Union Pacific Railroad in rural Newton, Utah. The scope for monitoring this section included coordination employing prism targets and offsite control points. These targets were affixed by mounting the targets to the side of the rail at intervals of 0, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 feet from the crossing with a total of 22 monitoring targets and 11 on each rail for the purpose of continuous monitoring of rail activity while keeping crews safe.
Measurements were observed remotely using our 1” total station. Rail movement, if any, was recorded in the field and submitted to RailPros to provide a smooth build for the Owner. Construction activities of the track installation were performed by NW King & Sons Construction.
The Juniper Student Center and Classroom Building brings the University of Utah and Salt Lake Community College in “one place with many possibilities” offering Herriman and surrounding city students with a unique set of higher education options without the commute across the valley to the U of U campus. The event on August 4th included supportive faculty, school mascots, and the cheer team to engage attendees with a fun time including providing information and prizes.
Live music, and several food trucks were also enjoyed. The new building is located at 14551 S. Sentinel Ridge Blvd (approximately 3500 West) consisting of 91,000 square foot, 3-story building with a central plant comprised of boilers and chillers. Constructed by Big-D and with the plan for opening its full suite of resources on August 22, 2023.
Design also included layout of new roadways throughout the campus, drop off areas, plazas, accessible 448 stall parking area, main entrance, roundabout connection, and external roadway access to the parking area for easy navigation. Utility extensions were tied into the design from City mains and metering, including utility stubs for future development, bioswales for water quality, and coordination for final subdivision platting including lots, dedicated roadways, and easements.
This project is comprised of remodeling an existing 14,600 SF empty building in the Little Cottonwood Shopping Center next to the Home Depot. Located at 9400 South and Highland Drive (1880 East) this store provides an alternative location to purchase cold beer, wine, and spirits.
Inside its modern design includes a retail area feature with local products made in Utah, remodeled space for retail sales, storage, an office, conference room, restrooms, breakroom with lockers, a stock room, and an enclosed shipping/loading dock. A geometric design ensemble of elements and wall art characterize the interior and exterior architecture for improving a customer’s long lasting shopping experience.
