      <image:caption>Middle Blue River Green Infrastructure Client: City of Kansas City Location: Kansas City, Missouri The project provided for design of up to 3,000,000 gallons of stormwater storage in an effort to meet both the Percent Capture of Wet Weather Flows and Performance Criteria set forth in the Federal Consent Decree pertaining to the Kansas City Overflow Control Program. TSi served as geotechnical engineer, planning and executing drilling, sampling, testing, and analyses, and producing a final report. The approach uses three tiers of storage basin sizes with green infrastructure concepts and strategic sewer separation to reduce the number of overflow events. Most of the improvements are along the streets but some improvements are on properties. The primary geotechnical concerns are the presence of fat clay and shallow bedrock which limit the infiltration of stormwater.</image:caption>

The project site is located north of the existing Express Scripts Hall (ESH) in an area where the topography slopes downward relatively steeply to the north and west. The proposed building will be a three-story structure, with the lower level exposed on the north side but below grade on the south side in consideration of the sloping ground surface. A below-grade tunnel and an at-grade walkway with canopy will connect the new structure to ESH. In plan view, the building shape will be an irregular steel frame structure with brick veneer, with dimensions of approximately 75 by 230 feet. Column loads of up to approximately 350 kips are anticipated. Based on the column loads and the moderately compressible soil encountered at the site, the building will be supported by drilled shafts socketed into the sandstone bedrock, the surface of which averages about 20 feet below the ground surface.</image:caption>

The project site is located north of the existing Express Scripts Hall (ESH) in an area where the topography slopes downward relatively steeply to the north and west. The proposed building will be a three-story structure, with the lower level exposed on the north side but below grade on the south side in consideration of the sloping ground surface. A below-grade tunnel and an at-grade walkway with canopy will connect the new structure to ESH. In plan view, the building shape will be an irregular steel frame structure with brick veneer, with dimensions of approximately 75 by 230 feet. Column loads of up to approximately 350 kips are anticipated. Based on the column loads and the moderately compressible soil encountered at the site, the building will be supported by drilled shafts socketed into the sandstone bedrock, the surface of which averages about 20 feet below the ground surface.</image:caption>
