Design Achievement – The UCPath Center is a core part of the University of California System’s strategy to increase the efficiency of administrative service delivery at all of its campuses across the state. DLR Group’s design for the interior build-out maximizes available work and office spaces while providing future flexibility. The structural X brace is the focal point of the lobby and is accentuated by its bold yellow color. The angled element is also reiterated through the ceiling geometries in the lobby and open office area, carpet pattern, and custom wall graphics. Accent colors throughout the entire space reinforce the University of California System’s brand identity. The oversized break room offers multiple appliances and various seating arrangements, including lounge, banquet and counter seats.
Scope Summary – This 53,000 SF tenant improvement project accommodates up to 370 employees in a flexible and functional work environment. The program consists of conference rooms, offices, open staff work stations, call center work stations, and support spaces. The scope of work included interior architecture and finishes; ceiling, lighting, flooring systems and utilities; and modification of existing systems and restrooms. LEED certification was a priority and was achieved through several avenues including: selection of energy-efficient appliances; specification of locally sourced building materials; utilization of sustainable finish materials including low VOC paints, carpets with recycled and post-consumer content, and FSC-approved woods. The entire floor is built on a raised floor system, which allows the air conditioning to come up from the floor and only condition occupied space. DLR Group provided interior design services.

1.2 The intent of the Historic Assessment portion of the Report is not to identify whether Chaffey High School is historical, or eligible as a landmark and to enable the District to successfully and sensitively incorporate a 21st Century state-of-the-art educational facility within this campus complex. Furthermore, the intent is to preserve the identity, sense of place, and sentimental attachment of the community and alumni to this important campus.
1.3 The Preliminary Seismic Assessment will evaluate and identify buildings with potential seismic deficiencies. It is based on a Tier 1 Evaluation as defined by ASCE 31. ASCE 31 is the Seismic Evaluation of Existing Buildings by the American Society of Civil Engineers and is the nationally recognized standard for this type of study. The Evaluation will determine the level of deficiency to recommend and prioritize buildings which require a more detailed seismic evaluation beyond this report. Broad conceptual retrofits will be discussed as part of the Report.
1.3.1 The evaluation will assess the buildings in their current state and does not include the impacts of any proposed modernization work which may trigger additional and/or mandatory seismic upgrades by DSA. Note that the evaluation of the District Administration Office is only the seismic assessment and does not include a study of the requirements to certify the building with DSA.
2.1 Accessibility Scope
2.1.1 The accessibility investigation work will be performed by a Certified Access Specialist (CASp).
2.1.2 DLR Group will perform a field review of each Building and the Site to identify significant deficiencies.
2.1.3 During the field review we will investigate locations, dimensions and maneuvering/usage clearances in accordance with applicable construction-related accessibility standards within the site and of each building for various categories of compliance. The following are representative categories from the California Accessibility Reference Manual Checklist for anticipated functions, but may not all be present at each building to be investigated:
· Site Requirements
· Accessible Routes of Travel
· Site Walks and Sidewalks
· Accessible Ramps, including Curb Ramps
· Doors and Gates
· Corridors, Hallways and Vestibules
· Stairs and Steps
· Accessible Means of Egress
· Elevators and Wheelchair Lifts
· Public Telephones
· Drinking Fountains
· Sanitary Facilities (Restrooms)
· Alarms
· Signage and Way-Finding
· Assembly Use Areas
.
2.1.4 Utilizing the information gathered during the field review the project team will work with you to develop a Campus Accessibility Plan which identifies the areas of concern and general scoping for future work based on your priorities and the existing conditions.
2.1.5 While the written summaries may include photographs or detailed recommendations, for correction of non-compliant elements; and as such, they do not constitute CASp Investigation Report.
2.2 Fire & Life Safety Scope
2.2.1 Perform site survey visits to review existing egress and fire protection systems and to document areas of non-compliance relative to current building and fire code requirements.
2.2.2 The assessment document will identify survey findings and include recommendations relative to resolving non-compliance items.
2.3 Historic Scope
2.3.1 Review local, state, and federal documentation of the campus, its buildings and spaces, with respect to historic surveys, determinations of eligibility, and listings (designations).
2.3.2 It is anticipated that the assessment will identify a local, state, and national (National Register) eligible historic district comprised of a list of contributing and non-contributing buildings and spaces. Through research and documentation we will identify the boundaries of the district, its significance and period of significance.
2.3.3 All of the buildings will be inventoried on a list of district features and classified as contributors or non-contributors. There are 18 buildings of interest that are potential historic contributors, and at least 4 open spaces (landscapes) of interest among those buildings, that are more than 50 years old. All buildings must be assessed within the determined period of interest as contributing or not, based on eligibility criteria and integrity. It is possible that a younger building, if designed by a master architect, for example, might be a contributor, and that an older building might lack adequate integrity to be a contributor.
2.3.4 For each contributing building and space, observe and write a tabular-form list of significant spaces and features, in order to provide guidance for design and as a baseline for future determination of impacts on the historic resources.
2.3.5 Condition Assessment – Review owner and alumni archive of historic documents and past renovation project documentation.
2.3.6 Perform limited surface testing of decorative ceiling in Auditorium to remove overpaint to reveal historic mural.
2.3.7 Provide an overview of findings and recommendations related to materials conservation as follows:
· Interior and exterior finish assemblies including, but not limited to, wall/ceiling treatments, light fixtures, doors, windows, floors, railings, stairs and thresholds.
· Art and decorative art objects/collections.
· Internal and external structure for structural repair and seismic retrofit needs including but not limited to, the foundations, walls, floors, ceilings, and roof.
· Exterior retaining walls and civil structures around the direct perimeter of the structure.
2.3.8 Materials Testing and Investigation – Develop a removals and/or testing recommendations as may be required to further evaluate materials and assemblies that require strength or condition evaluation in order to design for upgrades or improvements.
2.3.9 Conservation/Preservation Strategies – Based on the findings of the condition assessment, develop options and priorities for conservation, repairs and rehabilitation. Focus will be placed in developing those options that may require immediate maintenance or repairs.
2.4 Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing Scope
2.4.1 Site visits to review existing conditions. Review readily visible conditions only for existing conditions, potential code issues and potential for upgrades of HVAC, plumbing and electrical systems.
2.4.2 Review of as-built drawings for the facility.
2.4.3 Meetings during this process with Owner and other team members as needed.
2.4.4 Evaluate the needs of the facility and provide a list of recommended upgrades for codes, systems and energy conservation. Wherever applicable, provide more than one option for the recommendations. If more than one option is applicable, provide advantages and disadvantages of the options.
2.4.5 Provide sketches, if necessary, to illustrate the recommendations.
2.5 Structural Scope
2.5.1 Review District provided as-built construction drawings including original and as-built drawings, prior reports including geological and engineering assessments. “Spot-checks” of random and key construction elements will be performed to validate the provided as-built drawings.
2.5.2 Perform site visits to visually observe the conditions of the buildings, as required, to properly respond to the “checklist” items outlined in ASCE 31 and note any noticeable deviations from the available construction documents.
2.5.3 Preparation of non-destructive investigation program for only those items critical to determination of the structural systems (framing/construction validation) and to complete the “checklist” items, as needed. Items to investigate would be only for determination of typical framing conditions, for use in seismic study and potential retrofit work – it is not intended to provide complete reflection/validation of the as-built conditions and drawings of structures.
2.5.4 Research and obtain the latest seismic safety element report and any other publications that may describe the seismic hazard and geologic condition of the site.
2.5.5 Perform a preliminary evaluation of the existing buildings (above grade) based on the prescribed guidelines noted in ASCE 31.
2.5.6 Perform limited structural calculations of critical structural components as applicable to ASCE-31 standards to assess their adequacy and determine capacity regarding their expected seismic performance. Since it is not appropriate for this scope of work, computer modeling of any building is not included for Tier 1.
2.5.7 Complete the appropriate structural “checklist” items and determine whether the buildings comply with the seismic life-safety performance requirements based on ASCE 31. Where it is found that non-compliant items require Tier 2 analysis, CJUHSD will be made aware of non-compliant items identified that require Tier 2 or 3 analysis and/or further as-built information prior to preparation of report for determination of additional scope. If determined to be necessary for Tier 2 or 3 justifications, a testing/investigation program can be developed by SBI and implemented by a testing agency that is hired by CJUHSD.
2.5.8 If necessary, develop conceptual potential seismic retrofit scheme in narrative form of proposed retrofit scheme(s) based on prior experience with retrofitting of existing buildings. Note that this scope of work does not include the preparation of sketches or calculations.
2.5.9 Present findings and conclusions in a Preliminary Seismic Assessment Report along with completed “checklists”.
2.6 Cost Estimating Scope
2.6.1 At the completion of the site and building evaluations, we will review the deficiencies identified and develop a Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) cost estimate for the anticipated repair and modernization work.
2.6.2 The ROM will be reviewed with the project team and CJUHSD and adjustments will be made as directed.
2.7 Document Review / Presentations
2.7.1 Hold a kick-off meeting with CJUHSD, and/or assessment team to establish project schedules, milestones and deliverables.
2.7.2 Review assessment report and findings with the assessment team. Work with the assessment team and cost estimator to prioritize corrections and provide input to assist in cost estimation.

Design Achievement - Patterson JUSD enlisted the team of DLR Group and Acme Construction for a lease-leaseback construction of a new Career and Technical Education Building (CTE). Using the same footprint and structural system as the classroom building previously designed by DLR Group, our team developed a building to accommodate a logistic training facility by the modification of interior walls and exterior doors. This adoption of the prototype design allowed the District to save fees, construction costs, reduce change orders, and meet restrictive time frames for funding. The CTE facility is part of Patterson High School’s business logistics program that enables students to begin training in the field and provides a stepping stone to entry level warehouse jobs, vocational certification, college-level courses, or a combination thereof. The program is part of local efforts to ensure the Valley will have enough workers for the growing logistics industry. Companies such as Kohl’s, CVS, Grainger Industrial Supply, Amazon and Restoration Hardware operate distribution centers in Patterson.
Scope Summary - The 8,000-SF warehouse facility includes four classrooms for instructional purposes, warehouse space, and also houses all of the District’s school supplies. The adoption of the prototype design allowed the District to save fees, construction costs, reduce change orders, and meet restrictive time frames for funding. DLR Group provided architecture and interior design services.

Design Achievement - DLR Group’s design process for the new Math and Science Building began with a historical assessment of the entire Chaffey High School campus which was originally built in 1911. The team's design goal for the replacement classroom building was to be contextually responsive without being a replication of the existing historical fabric. The design of the new classroom building integrates all science curriculum into a single building and one central location. The Math and Science Building is part of a larger master plan that will ultimately define the south quad and formally complete the build-out of the historic 104-year old campus. The new classroom building is designed to replace an aging math and science building lacking appropriate infrastructure, daylighting and educational support space. The new Math and Science building integrates all science curriculum into a single building and one central location and is part of a larger master plan that will ultimately define the south quad and formally complete the build-out of the historic 104-year old campus.
Scope Summary - The 59,985 SF Math and Science Building replaces an existing outdated facility originally built in 1975. The three-story structure will have 18 state-of-the-art classrooms and 12 science labs. DLR Group provided architecture and interior design services.

Design Achievement - A continuous tenant of the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum since its opening in 1923, the University of Southern California (USC) signed a long-term lease in 2013 to operate the Coliseum as the home field for Trojan football. DLR Group was engaged by USC to conduct a Facilities Renovation and Development Feasibility Plan for the historic Coliseum, the most iconic sporting venue in the United States. DLR Group's feasibility study developed a plan to guide capital improvements and ongoing fundraising support for a strategic modernization of the Coliseum that elevates the game day experience for USC fans and creates a dominant home field advantage for the Trojans. Following the University's lead, DLR Group took a balanced approach to this project, transforming the Coliseum into a modern home for USC football while maintaining the program's traditions and the historical significance of the venue. DLR Group collaborated with USC to identify new revenue streams to finance and sustain operations to assist the University in meeting the capital improvement obligations of its Master Lease. The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum has hosted two Olympic Games, Super Bowl I and VI, a World Series, a multitude of professional and amateur sporting events, and will host the 2015 Special Olympics. The Coliseum was upgraded in 1932 and 1984 prior to hosting the Olympic Games, and it was designated a National Historic Registered Landmark in 1984. A series of improvements were made from 1993-1995, including structural repairs following the 1994 Northridge Earthquake.
Scope Summary - The 750,000 SF Coliseum occupies 27 acres and seats approximately 92,000 people. It is located in the central portion of Exposition Park, adjacent to the University of Southern California campus. DLR Group's scope of work was to prepare, describe, and document a feasibility study in support of advancing this project through preliminary project planning and fundraising. The plan was intended to serve as a general guide for future capital improvement projects. The facility needs, goals, objectives, and program were gathered by the team through communication and meetings with university representatives and others to identify and describe the project's requirements in terms of square feet, space type, characteristics, and other special requirements (equipment requirements, technology, acoustics, building systems, environmental controls, adjacencies, access, etc.). The scope of work also included review of existing documents provided by USC, evaluation of existing conditions, and identification of code mandated upgrades and infrastructure enhancements necessary to deliver a modernized facility. DLR Group provided planning, architecture, and interior design services.

Design Achievement - The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum was built in 1923 and the USC Trojans played their inaugural game on October 6, 1923. Since then, it’s also hosted two Olympics, two Super Bowls, a World Series, a Papal Mass, visits from three U.S. Presidents, and scores of additional sporting and social events. DLR Group led the design of a $300-million renovation and modernization to honor the tradition and heritage of the historic facility while creating a true game-day experience for USC fans, and delivering a decided home field advantage for the Trojan football program. A focal point of the modernization is the design and construction of a new suite and press tower on the south side of the stadium. This added multiple suites, loge boxes, club seats, press box, and a new concourse. This new suite tower was inserted seamlessly into the existing stadium bowl. The Los Angeles Coliseum is one of four historic athletic stadiums designated as National Historic Landmarks by the National Park Service. DLR Group’s design retains the Coliseum’s official landmark status while also being sensitive to the place the coliseum plays in the culture of Los Angeles and the United States. The modernized Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum still remains the historic coliseum in look, texture, and impression, and a key design intent was to faithfully restore the iconic peristyle’s former majestic presence.
Scope Summary - The modernization of the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum encompasses well over 1,000,000 total SF. Improvements to the stadium seating and circulation reduced seating capacity from 93,607 to approximately 77,500. The modernization replaced every seat in the stadium and installed handrails throughout; adding aisles and repairing steps to enhance safety. The design intervention widened seats and increased leg room in many sections; upgraded entry concourses, installed new field and stadium lighting, improved audio and video with two new large screens on the east end of the stadium; updated Wi-Fi throughout the venue; and updated electrical, and mechanical and plumbing systems. The design and construction began after the 2017 USC football season and completed prior to the 2019 football home opener. The USC Trojans and LA Rams played the 2018 season in the Coliseum during the renovation. DLR Group provided architecture, interiors, and planning services.

Design Achievement - In order to meet increasing enrollment and changing student needs, Antelope High School required the addition of five new classrooms. Modular construction was selected as the ideal solution to complete this project on schedule with minimal disruption to the existing school campus. The project features a grade-level entry that eliminates the need for steps or ramps. The new building exterior finish utilizes a color scheme that blends into the existing campus structures.
Scope Summary - The new construction modular building contains five classrooms in 4,800-SF. By utilizing modular classrooms, the construction time on-site was reduced saving general conditions costs. DLR Group provided programming and architectural services.

Design Achievement - Situated minutes from downtown Los Angeles adjacent to the 405 freeway, the Macerich Los Angeles Premium Outlets will transform an existing landfill into a contemporary shopping gem to be visited by travelers from around the world. The design takes advantage of the temperate southern California climate by creating a pedestrian friendly, open-air outlet center in this growing suburban city. A variety of high end fashion brands will open factory stores in the new complex offering a sensible local shopping alternative for the region. The design also incorporates value-added features and spaces such as direct shuttles, airline baggage check-in and boarding pass issuance in order to attract international customers from the nearby Los Angeles World Airport. World Airport.
Scope Summary - The 563,000 SF Macerich Los Angeles Premium Outlets situated on 40 acres presents considerable coordination challenges due to its location over an existing landfill. The project will need to float entirely on a structural slab and pile foundations. Once it is constructed there is no room for modification. As such, every landscape element, light pole, cart, kiosk, signage and graphics, toilet rooms, and food & beverage tenant must be precisely located and structurally supported. In addition, every utility trench and transformer box must be integrated into the slab design. The sheer size and scope of the retail component, which is over the length of five football fields, also presented unique challenges. The team prevented the occurrence of retail “dead zones” by creating a race track design that positions Food and Beverage districts at the four corners and premium shops at the center court next to a large event plaza used for seasonal and promotional events. Over one third of the roof will be designed to allow for future solar panels. DLR Group provided Executive Architect services and partnered with ELS for Concept Design and ATA for Design.

Design Achievement - The University of the Pacific has developed a series of guiding principles in recent years that provide the foundation and framework for this pre-planning and programming document. A core committee representing Capital Planning, Housing, and Facilities conducted interviews, selected, and worked together with the primary consultant team of DLR Group, Brailsford & Dunlavey, and Ayers Saint Gross, and other individuals and stakeholders, to further develop the detailed program for student housing at the Stockton campus. Through an inclusive and integrated process, including interactive meetings, workshops, presentations and a constant feedback loop, the pre-planning and programming process has been successfully completed and the College has a framework for their building design with the goal of enhancing student academic and residential experience. Through this report, DLR Group integrated academics with residential learning communities that give one a sense of community within the housing spaces.
Scope Summary – The 10-year, phased, complete build out will of this $240 M project consists of 480,000 gsf of new construction and 175,000 gsf of renovation, plus associated site work. It is targeted for LEED Silver certification. Because the Calaveras River cuts the northern campus property from the main campus, there is a feeling of disconnection between the ‘North of the River’ facilities and the main campus. A small community building with an integrated plaza was programmed for the junction of the north of river property and the pathway/bridge connection to the main campus. This community building serves as a coffee shop/convenience store for the student communities, while inviting student activity amenities that tie in to the adjacent planned housing. Programming this facility in this location is critical to reduce the disjoined, remote feel of the existing and planned campus facilities, shortening the feel of the commute to the main campus. From an aesthetic perspective, new construction and renovation will reflect the strong collegiate gothic campus core and support the language of the campus. DLR Group provided Pre-Planning and Programming on this project.
