Huitt-Zollars provided civil engineering services to improve drainage facilities at Falcon Field Airport. The project included 700 linear feet of slotted drain; storm drain inlets; 15,000 linear feet of 18-inch to 48-inch storm drain along existing taxiways and existing roadways; and grading of a large drainage basin utilized to retain storm water runoff from the airport.
Huitt-Zollars provided structural engineering design and construction phase services for the expansion of the Automated People Mover (APM) Elevated Guideway System at George Bush Intercontinental Airport. This project was part of the International Services Expansion Program under the direction of the Houston Airport System. The design involved approximately 3,000 linear feet of one elevated guideway, and an APM station.
Huitt-Zollars provided engineering design services for a 60-acre air cargo/corporate hangar site development. This included the the design of the aircraft parking apron and connecting taxiway, the storm drainage system, water utilities, and sanitary sewer utilities. Huitt-Zollars was also responsible for the design of all landside facilities.
Huitt-Zollars provided engineering design services for the reconstruction of 4,100-linear-foot of taxiway and associated improvements. Three 150-linear-foot-wide connector taxiways provide increased width to serve the new larger aircraft at the site. Approximately 88,000 SY of existing pavement was replaced with a total pavement thickness of 52 inches. Work also included the construction of two asphalt concrete aircraft parking aprons, totaling approximately 40,000 SY.
Huitt-Zollars provided engineering design and construction administration for a new 7,800-linear-foot concrete runway, and reconstruction of the existing parallel Taxiway F South.
Huitt-Zollars provided comprehensive engineering and construction management services for airside civil improvements, as part of the Love Field Modernization Program to develop a new 20-gate terminal complex. The airside scope of work included 323,000-SY of new pavement around the new terminal, taxiway improvements, apron and taxiway lighting, a new hydrant fuel system, new fuel lines for fuel system capacity expansion, remain overnight aircraft parking, and major drainage system improvements to mitigate flood hazards.
Huitt-Zollars provided design services for the 606,340-square-foot expansion and 486,290-square-foot renovation. Results of a Huitt-Zollars study were incorporated into the design of a new Central Energy Plant. The project incorporated a campus wide Energy Management System. The electrical design included 480v and 15 KV distribution systems. A 600 KW emergency generator unit powers essential plant loads during commercial utility outages.
