description: With growing demand for exercise space, AANB has been hired to design a modern gym in the middle of the bustling city of Watertown, Massachusetts. Given the crowded nature of this area ,the gym design will also need to be accompanied with the ability to allow customers to park while visiting the gym. Thus, it will also include a parking lot .AANB Civil Engineers is a group of experienced civil engineers who are responsible for the design of this gym within an industrial lot in Watertown, Massachusetts. The gym will utilize a parking garage on the first floor and a basketball court on the second floor. There will also be a reception area on the first floor and additional athletic space on the second floor. The square footage of the gym will be 53,450 ft 2and the square footage of the parking lot will be 46,550 ft 2.Each group member is assigned to the disciplines of site/civil, geotechnical, structural, and transportation engineering. The contributions of each discipline will be essential to the design of the gym. The site/civil engineer will take the lead on designing the parking lot area as well as grading and drainage design for the site. The geotechnical engineer will first focus on the soil properties of the site, and then design the foundations. The structural engineer will primarily be responsible for ensuring that the gym is constructed in a safe manner and conforms to all regulations. The transportation engineer will model the existing traffic conditions and note how the gym proposal will impact those traffic conditions during construction and after construction.
