KL&A uses a “FIELD-TO-FINISH” approach for the civil engineering on projects.  This involves the engineer being on the survey crew which performs the preconstruction site survey.  This approach has proven very beneficial as the engineer gains a very in-depth understanding of the site while performing the survey.  It also ensures all data needed for the design is collected.  The engineer will then transition into preparing the plans with an immediate understanding of the site and the ability to recognize potential conflicts before the design begins.  The engineer then proceeds into the roles of construction administration to complete the project.

Mass Timber

Since the early 2000s, KL&A has seen mass timber as a key component of design strategies to minimize embodied carbon and reduce construction time while delivering architecturally stunning buildings. We have accordingly organized our practice to be the premier structural designer of mass timber in the Rocky Mountain Region. KL&A’s history with heavy timber structures started with our very first project and has continued to this day. Since about 2010, that practice has included the innovative new materials and systems known as mass timber construction.
