Technical Analysis (Minimum Flows and Levels, Water Reservations) . Expert Witness and Independent Peer Review We have designed industrial buildings ranging from simple pump houses to complex multilevel power generation facilities meeting building code criteria at local, state and federal levels. Combined loading conditions due to dead and live loads, wind, snow, hurricane, and seismic are analyzed and the structure is designed to withstand the most severe loading combination. The same applies to administrative buildings except that there is usually a higher occupancy level and more architectural involvement. Since the main activity in administrative buildings involves people, computers, and other office related equipment and functions that are performed, these buildings have a lighter live load and result in a less robust structure. Additional emphasis on architectural amenities includes more windows, more comfortable finishes, and climate control considerations including heating, ventilation, and air conditioning. As an example of our work, Shaw staff provided technical assistance to the Miami River Commission and Miami-Dade County regarding dredging issues related to the USACE maintenance dredging and disposal of contaminated sediments from this densely developed river. Dredging consulting services also provided to the Miami River Commission consisted of the review and guidance on Project Cooperation Agreements, the review of project plans and specifications, and the preparation of infonnational mailings and notifications to Miami River property owners. Shaw staff developed dredging description/fact sheets for public distribution and notification letters for riverfront property owners; provided responses to questions from the public regarding potential impact of project to property/structures along the river; and supplied continual dredging technical resources to the commission and county. . .
