T&L provided full design and engineering services to Montgomery County for a new fire station in Riner, Virginia.  The site is located on Virginia Route 8 on approximately 45 acres.  The 19,148 GSF facility includes six (6) double-loaded apparatus bays and an administration area, including offices, kitchen, meeting rooms, laundry room, day room, turn-out gear room, entrance/lobby, mechanical/electrical support spaces and toilets.  T&L’s scope of work included surveying, geotechnical exploration, civil engineering, architecture, structural engineering, mechanical/HVAC engineering, plumbing engineering, fire protection engineering, electrical engineering, communications system engineering, landscape architecture and interior design.  The design was developed in accordance with the Commonwealth of Virginia’s Construction and Professional Services Manual (CPSM).

The building is a pre-engineered metal structure on shallow spread footings with masonry walls and a standing seam metal roof.  The apparatus bays were designed to incorporate overhead Stokes basket training capability, and also include a vehicle exhaust system.  The facility is heated by liquid propane supplied by two (2) external storage tanks and conditioned with six (6) direct expansion (DX) air handling units (AHUs).  Storage space is including on a partial second level beside the AHUs area.  Exterior vehicular circulation is provided via heavy duty asphalt and concrete roadways that encircle the facility.  Extensive coordination with VDOT was required to locate access off of Route 8 to the site/facility.

As part of the recent transition at Thompson & Litton, Stacey Mullins was promoted to Manager of Finance. Stacey joined T&L in August of 2002 as an Accounting Clerk. Over the years, she in-creased her knowledge and took on additional responsibilities, and ultimately served as Robert Massie’s right hand as it relates to accounting and financial matters. Robert came to rely on Stacey more and more as she grew in knowledge and confidence. While Robert’s departure left behind some big shoes to fill, Mitch Jearls says “I am confident and excited that Stacey will excel in the new role.” 

T&L partnered with Southwest Virginia Community Health Systems for the design and construction of this new 9,732 SF medical clinic in Tazewell, Virginia. The new facility enabled Southwest Virginia Community Health Systems to increase both the scope of services and the capacity to provide services to the community.

The facility includes primary care exam rooms, an optometry suite, a dental suite, behavioral health, pediatric care, a lab, x-ray, triage room, nurse workstations, lobby/waiting, and other supporting spaces. The project was completed in late 2018 and a ribbon cutting was held in October.
