The original buildings on this property were designed by the famous Pueblo Revival architect John Gaw Meem in the 1930s. This project involved supporting the architectural intent of the new buildings with appropriate structural design, as well as maintaining the character of the historic milking barn while making structural adjustments to meet new usage requirements. The budget was approximately $2 million and construction is underway in 2017.[/et_pb_dp_oc_custom_item][et_pb_dp_oc_custom_item upload_image=”http://www.rebelengineeringnm.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/LANL-sign-by-LANL-2400×1600-2.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” use_original=”on” image_title=”Los Alamos National Laboratory Nuclear Materials Safety Storage Upgrade Project” image_alt_text=”Los Alamos National Laboratory Nuclear Materials Safety Storage Upgrade Project” image_title_text=”Los Alamos National Laboratory Nuclear Materials Safety Storage Upgrade Project” admin_title=”Los Alamos National Laboratory Nuclear Materials Safety Storage Upgrade Project” _builder_version=”4.0.9″ _dynamic_attributes=”link_option_url” link_option_url=”@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF9saW5rX3VybF9wYWdlIiwic2V0dGluZ3MiOnsicG9zdF9pZCI6IjQ0MyJ9fQ==@”]Mr. Bookwalter was the Lead Engineer and Engineer of Record through URS Corporation responsible for the ten-year design and construction of the $100 million Los Alamos National Laboratory Nuclear Materials Safety Storage Upgrade Project required by Congress.[/et_pb_dp_oc_custom_item][et_pb_dp_oc_custom_item upload_image=”http://www.rebelengineeringnm.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/APS-2400×1600-1.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” use_original=”on” image_title=”Albuquerque Public Schools Conference Center, Administrative Offices, and Warehouse” image_alt_text=”Albuquerque Public Schools Conference Center, Administrative Offices, and Warehouse” image_title_text=”Albuquerque Public Schools Conference Center, Administrative Offices, and Warehouse” admin_title=”Albuquerque Public Schools Conference Center, Administrative Offices, and Warehouse” _builder_version=”4.0.9″ _dynamic_attributes=”link_option_url” link_option_url=”@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF9saW5rX3VybF9wYWdlIiwic2V0dGluZ3MiOnsicG9zdF9pZCI6IjQzOCJ9fQ==@”]Mr. Bookwalter provided all structural engineering for remodeling an Albuquerque Public Schools warehouse into a conference center and administrative building, including the creation of a new 50,000 square foot warehouse.

This post-tension concrete, steel, and AASHTO girder bridge was completed for the New Mexico Department of Transportation. The intention was to create a visually simple structure with clean lines that would allow for transit across highway 285, and at the same time feature a mural honoring local traditions and culture. The design of the Corn Maiden Bridge accomplished all of these goals.[/et_pb_dp_oc_custom_item][et_pb_dp_oc_custom_item upload_image=”http://www.rebelengineeringnm.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/railyard_project-2400×1600-1.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”on” use_original=”on” image_title=”Santa Fe Railyard Park and Plaza, Santa Fe, NM” image_alt_text=”Santa Fe Railyard Park and Plaza, Santa Fe, NM” image_title_text=”Santa Fe Railyard Park and Plaza, Santa Fe, NM” admin_title=”Santa Fe Railyard Park and Plaza, Santa Fe, NM” _builder_version=”4.0.9″ _dynamic_attributes=”link_option_url” link_option_url=”@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF9saW5rX3VybF9wYWdlIiwic2V0dGluZ3MiOnsicG9zdF9pZCI6IjI5NCJ9fQ==@”]This mixed-use park, esplanade, and town meeting area is a centerpiece for public engagement in the middle of the city of Santa Fe. The goal was to create a public space that would encourage a wide range of use by residents and visitors of all ages. The project has been successful. Young and old use the park regularly for the weekly farmer’s market, arts fairs, community outdoor events and movies, and daily recreation. Mr. Bookwalter was the principal civil and structural engineer and Engineer of Record for this approximately $5 million project. [/et_pb_dp_oc_custom_item][/et_pb_dp_oc_custom]
