Polaris Solar Site
This 32 square mile, 1.5 megawatt solar farm was the largest the client had ever undertaken. The project turned out to be opportunity to understand some scalability issues with the custom build CAD system that has been built for them. With those issues corrected, we were able to set a new drawing package standard for the company.
Martinsville Solar Farm
The Martinsvolle Solar farm was a great example of how versatile the ECE system is. This site went through 3 redesigns.
The first planset, built with the clients former methods, took an average of 10-15 minuets to open a DWG, and 35 minuets to print a PDF set. After rebuilding the second set using ECE, open times were lowered to 2 minuets or less, and a PDF print set was finished in under 10 minutes.
The third design also used the ECE system, allowing for a one month turnaround, 1/3 less time than usual.
Rapidline H-Line
This project was another in the series of Rapidline bus lines serving the King County area. Design includes traffic signals and striping. This was a very large project involving CAD standard from three cities. Keeping everything in check was a huge task, but with intelligent CAD practices, workflow was kept smooth.
Lake City Way Traffic Flow Upgrade
This project entailed upgrading the signals at 4 intersections along Lake City Way NE (in Seattle, WA). The area is unincorporated so it falls into WSDOT’s project. The problem is that WSDOT uses Microstation, not AutoCAD. The CAD assets & standards were translated and used to great effect to complete the drawing set.
T-Mobile Fiber Optics Upgrade
This project planned the layout of new fiber optic conduit throughout downtown Seattle. The challenge here was fitting equipment and laying out conduit in the tight spaces of downtown Seattle while rapid construction was happening
Taylor Way Rehabilitation
Long stretches of shipping lanes in the Tacoma Docks was the focus here. Smart design including predictive train travel helped keep trucking roads and rail from hindering each other. Standards were laid out by City of Tacoma and the Tacoma Port Authority.
