BJG has begun the design of two flumes for the Truckee Meadows Water Authority. These flumes are being constructed to replace existing flumes that do not have enough capacity and are not adequate for Reno’s seismic loads.
The structure contains approximately 618 parking spaces on three levels. The garage is post-tensioned, cast-in-place concrete. The west and north walls are virtually solid to mitigate noise and light to the neighboring apartments. The upper barrier panels are a minimum of eight feet tall to mitigate sound and light emission. A decorative mansard required an inventive torsion-tube support to eliminate interior columns that could interfere with the parking.
Design follows the national prototype design from Mazda USA. Mazda is 17,000 sf 2 story showroom, service garage, parts storage warehouse & administrative offices.
Two BJG designed Northern Nevada pump station projects are built and ready to pump water to Reno area residents. BJG performed architectural and structural design, construction support, and structural observation services for the two projects. We were contracted by Eco:Logic Engineering to perform the work and they were a pleasure to work with. Eco:Logic was the lead consultant on the two projects that are intended to help meet future municipal and industrial water demands for the Reno and surrounding areas.
April’s Engaged Employees of the Month are all of the BJG employees that helped out at our first annual Easter Egg Hunt at Bartley Ranch in Reno, NV. They took their own time to help coordinate and run this amazing community outreach event that brought families together and gave dozens of children joy.
Good job BJGers!

Today is Talk Like a Pirate Day. Here at BJG, we like to have fun, so we have proclaimed it Dress Like a Pirate Day as well. We had a little competition in the Reno office to see who could be most pirate-y. Needless to say, Kara won, however, fun was had by all.
