B6003 ICON Aircraft, 2016

b6003-icon-aircraft-2016-2

ICON Aircraft, an amphibious light sport recreational aircraft manufacturing company, is growing faster than their current newly acquired space adjacent to the Nut Tree Airport can handle.
The relocation of the company’s manufacturing operation was moved to Vacaville from Southern California. In order to allow employees to move sooner and enroll their children at the beginning of the school year, the occupancy date was shortened to August 2015. To meet this early date, it required coordination with the City of Vacaville Building Department and the City Fire Marshal for all code requirements and submission of new construction documents. New requirements included the installation of a demising fence, fire alarms, and modifications to the existing fire sprinkler system. The existing building permit was amended and partial occupancy of the new facility was achieved on time, allowing for a smooth transition of their manufacturing operation. Construction of Building 2141 in Vacaville was completed in January 2016.
Dreyfuss + Blackford also completed the Building 2131 buildout, which is adjacent to the manufacturing facility. It includes the installation of ICON’s Composite Structural Bonding facility, where they manufacture the aircraft’s carbon fiber bodies.

B4030 AC Transit D3 Richmond Reactivation, 2014

AC Transit is the public bus transportation authority for western Alameda and Contra Costa Counties. We performed a multi-disciplinary conditions assessment of their existing District 3 (D3) Richmond facility which was then used to establish the scope of work and budget necessary to repair and reactivate the facility.
D3 was constructed in the late 1980’s, operated continuously for 20 years and deactivated in 2011. Closed due to reduced bus usage during the “Great Recession,” economic improvements in the San Francisco Bay Area caused a rebound in ridership just few years later. Reactivation of the facility alleviates the strain on other AC Transit facilities and achieves their goal of increased efficiency and improved rider experience.
Our work included overseeing system replacements of: lube and fare collection, wastewater and stormwater treatment, back-up electrical generator, roof-top parking deck waterproofing, HVAC, and fire alarm and security; ADA upgrades; renovation and reroofing of the Fuel &#038; Service island; remodeling of dispatch office and transaction area; elevator repairs and modernization; and structural and general building and site repairs.

Designa Group is a manufacturing company that includes office furnishings and accessories, robotics, and hydrogen batteries. They are developing a new replacement factory, dormitory and R&#038;D office building on a 16.5 acre site in Foshan, China. Designa desired to create a workplace more aligned with western practices of open officing and generational change, and approached us because of our reputation and experience with the development of workplace solutions.
In creating a great new home for Designa’s R&#038;D staff, and providing a destination showroom for existing and potential clients, our solution utilizes an open office plan with connected amenities allowing for a transition to a more mobile office. Biophilia was also incorporated to connect staff back to nature and create a more relaxed atmosphere.
