During space planning, CWA will evaluate an existing or potential project site regarding access, egress, utilities, views, and such to determine the optimal placement of site elements. Deed restrictions, zoning restrictions, and building code issues will be addressed.
Architecture encompasses many aspects of the planning and building process, from identifying space/site needs through design to representing the Owner during construction.
Interior Design works hand-in-glove with architecture to realize an efficient workflow and an aesthetic that enhances the building spaces for employees and visitors.
Programming is a pre-design process to establish a client's overall project goals.
Space planning is an integral part of the design process, where the client's building wants and needs evolve into defined areas of space. CWA has the knowledge and skills to organize building spaces effectively to create the most efficient layout to meet the client's needs, values, and facility operations.
We address hazardous material code requirements such as maximum allowable quantities, containment, fire suppression, etc., and the impact materials and quantities have on building systems.
CWA has served the petrochemical and industrial sectors for over 30 years by providing highly sophisticated buildings engineered to resist and respond to specified blast loads, negative pressures, and rebound loading. Our years of experience have solidified our ability and skills to provide our petrochemical and industrial clients with blast-resistant buildings engineered to provide critical protection to plant personnel and unit operations.
