As a <br />manager of projects and personnel, Roberto is responsible for training staff <br />and keeping them organized.

This was a renovation of an existing multi-level parking garage. The original scope was adding a new vehicle exit out of the garage. The scope expanded to add metal security gates for vehicles and persons on the 6th floor to separate the 7th and 8th floors above from public access for Lake County staff purposes. Forefront has been tasked with providing architecture and engineering drawings to provide a second vehicle exit route from the public garage. <br />City of Paxton, Senior Activity Center - New Facility, Paxton, FL: Roberto serves as Senior CAD/Revit Technician on this project. Forefront was contracted by the City of Paxton to design a new senior activity center in Walton County. Forefront’s approach to the design for this project was to create an inclusive design that all ages will feel comfortable and welcome. The single story, wood framed structure would sit on a municipal property chosen by the City of Paxton.Some specific requirements needed within the space are dining and activity area as well as handicapped accessible bathrooms, walk-in freezer, catering kitchen, and a covid testing and vaccination room. We are currently working with Walton County to obtain funding from the CDBG-CV Grant. <br />The Awning Factory, Warehouse Expansion, Orlando, FL: Roberto serves as Senior CAD/Revit Technician on this project. The project incorporates a structural steel frame and cold-formed steel walls, supported by a shallow concrete foundation system. This strategic choice ensures a sturdy and durable structure, capable of accommodating the functional needs of The Awning Factory’s operations. The shallow concrete foundation system supports the entire structure, distributing the load evenly to the ground. This approach minimizes the need for extensive excavation and simplifies the construction process, leading to efficient project management and cost savings. <br />Lake County, Tax Collector Facility, Tavares, FL: Roberto served as Senior CAD/Revit Technician on this project. Forefront successfully managed the Lake County Tax Collector project, adhering to the Project Management Plan and Quality Assurance protocols. The site development proceeded smoothly with the chosen contractor achieving the necessary pad for construction on time and within budget. The drainage, civil design, and landscaping integrated well with the site’s topography. <br />Firm <br />Forefront Architecture and Engineering <br />Years of Experience <br />Total: 20 With Current Firm: 15 <br />Education <br />AA, Architecture, Inter-American University of Puerto Rico <br />Certifications <br />AutoCAD Revit <br />Market Sectors <br />Residential Commercial Hospitality Institutional Medical <br />Roberto Bonet <br />Production Manager, Senior CAD/Revit Technician
