Huitt-Zollars was responsible for the preliminary entitlement process and engineering design for the development of a 3.4 million square-foot import warehouse and regional distribution center for Target Corporation. This facility will serve the major portion of Target southern California. The design involves street, sewer, water, storm drain, traffic signals, street lighting and striping plans, grading, landscape architecture, and preparation of the master plan of drainage and all of the on-site and off-site topographic surveys, mapping, and construction staking.

Huitt-Zollars provided preliminary and final design, site analysis, hydrologic and hydraulic studies, wetland relocation, a regional drainage detention basin, and quantity estimates to transform 120 acres of undeveloped land into a new hub for industrial warehouse distribution. Site requirements for the total 200-acre master planned industrial center included 10,000 feet of storm drain; 12,000 feet of sewer; and 15,000 feet of water mains. The site plan changed many times without negatively impacting results. The strategically located industrial warehouse park contains 4 million feet of sto

Huitt-Zollars provided engineering and landscape design services for this concrete-paver manufacturing facility. The facility has several buildings located on a 20-acre site. Fast-track design was provided for utilities to serve all the buildings and for drainage, erosion control, grading, and parking lot layout. The design was coordinated with neighboring projects, and onsite landscape design was provided.

Huitt-Zollars prepared preliminary engineering documents necessary for planning commission approval inclusive of preliminary grading, drainage and utility concepts, a pre-construction ALTA survey and boundary surveys.  Located on the south end of The Irvine Spectrum Business Park, the 3.75-acre site consists of four separate buildings totaling over 45,000 SF.  Following planning commission approval, Huitt-Zollars prepared final construction documents: plans for rough and precise grading, public street plans, on-site utilities plans, off-site public utility connection plans, erosion control

Huitt-Zollars provided civil engineering, survey, and design services for this 200-acre industrial warehouse business park; a unique drainage solution was necessary to make the project buildable. The collaborative drainage solution benefits the Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District, the land developer and the community. Off-Site design included approximately 4 miles of new roadways and existing roadway widening, extension of two main line storm drains, extension of new sewer mains, and new water mains to service the project sites.
