			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Red Oak Plaza, a new office development in San Marcos, has been issued for construction.</p>
<p>Designed by <a href="http://www.studio8architects.com/">Studio 8 Architects</a> in Austin, the steel-framed building is built into the side of a hill, and features a double cantilevered second floor. The building will rest on deep drilled piers due to the poor quality, highly expansive clay soils, and the building&#8217;s lateral loads will be resisted by steel rod x-bracing between perimeter columns. A full-glass facade will accentuate the structure and will allow huge amounts of natural light into the work areas.</p>
<p>The project was developed using Revit Structure 2012, and designed using interoperable design programs.</p>
<p>Construction is slated to begin in late 2012.<a href="http://www.cjgengineers.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Red-Oak-Plaza-2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-515" title="Red Oak Plaza" src="http://www.cjgengineers.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Red-Oak-Plaza-2-1024x550.jpg" alt="" width="450" height="241" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>CJG is performing the site adaptation of the Gamberi Regional Hospital at ANA Gamberi Garrison in Gamberi Afghanistan.  It is located on the site of the existing main ANA Gamberi Garrison located in the northeastern province of Laghman.</p>
<p>The project includes the construction of a 100 bed hospital complex including billeting and life support for approximately 235 medical and other required staff.  It also includes all other infrastructure necessary to operate and maintain the hospital.  Utilities will connect to the existing Gamberi ANA Garrison system, while a separate emergency power system will be installed for the hospital.  The hospital will have a force protected perimeter wall with its own entry control point.</p>
<p>Structural services being performed by CJG Engineers include the design of the foundation system, force protected walls, entry control points and infrastructure support.</p>

<p>How did you end up working for CJG-Austin?</p>
<ul>
<li>I started working for the Houston office in April of 2005 after a couple of short stints with a couple of other firms.  Thankfully, I was able to transfer to the Austin office at the end of 2007.</li>
</ul>
<p>Why were you thankful about the move?</p>
<ul>
<li>Well, I grew up in nearby Wimberley, TX and have always loved the Austin vibe!  I enjoy everything Austin has to offer: the food, the concerts, and the active lifestyle.</li>
</ul>
<p>Sounds like you’re pretty active.  Where can we find you on the weekends?</p>
<ul>
<li>I’ll most likely be on Lake Austin.  For me there’s nothing better than getting out on the water and riding behind a boat whether it be wakeboarding, wakesurfing, or wakeskating!  I also enjoy spending time with friends and family or catching a concert/sporting event.</li>
</ul>
<p>Anything else we should know about you?</p>
<ul>
<li>Sure.  I just got married to a great woman in February and inherited two great boys aged 8 &amp; 10.  We had a wonderful ceremony on the beach in Zihuatanejo, Mexico.  Now, most of my time is spent keeping up with a couple of hyper boys that never run out of energy!</li>
</ul>
