    Overview

    The Denver Botanic Garden’s Master Plan addresses the programmatic and physical elements of the York Street Campus, illustrating conceptual designs for long-term development of the gardens and supporting facilities. Additional supporting facilities on the boards include several new greenhouses, a new pedestrian bridge, a visitor services building, a café, a library and a new 150-vehicle parking structure. The existing 47,000 square foot iconic conservatory will undergo a renovation to help ensure that the Denver Botanic Gardens remains recognizable.

    Rider Levett Bucknall provided conceptual cost estimating services to establish project budgets for the significant campus improvement plan which assisted in establishing funding needs for the redevelopment.

    Cost Estimating

    Overview

    At 5,400 feet, renovation of the Mount Rainier Paradise Inn historic grand lodge to meet current structural and ADA accessibility requirements and construction of a new 20,100 square foot visitor’s center was challenging, at best.

    Rider Levett Bucknall provided cost estimating services to the design team for both distinctive structures. The construction costs for this project were affected by the challenges of working at such a high elevation, including extreme temperature and heavy snowload. In the estimates, Rider Levett Bucknall took into account the delicate natural environment with special consideration of everything from design elements to transportation of materials to the site, so that the design team and, subsequently, the owner were well aware of all possible costs and potential scheduling conflicts.

    Overview

    Situated on a historic 10.5-acre campus in Salem is the Oregon Department of Forestry’s 52,960 square foot headquarters building. The structure, built to house operations and public services offices, was designed to be compatible with the existing State Forester’s Office and surrounding grounds and stone walls that are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In some places, materials were salvaged from existing buildings for use on the new structures. Because of the sustainable and ecological design, the structure earned a Silver LEED® Certification from the U.S. Green Building Council.

    Rider Levett Bucknall provided cost management assistance to the Architect and Owner to ensure the LEED® Certification goals were realized, while still adhering to a strict budget. To do this, we implemented Value Engineering sessions to evaluate the program with regards to initial capital expenditure and whole life performance, quality, and operating costs.
