Wayne County’s magnificent courthouse built in 1899, was facing several issues. Presented here is the resolution for one of the many concerns, the site grade. Over many years, the grade had risen around the courthouse causing the sandstone to deteriorate, presenting a desperate need for restoration.

The challenge was to work with a firm budget of $2million set by the client for complete restoration work. Hence, work was done in stages and needed to be prioritized. As second most important scope of work, a perimeter gutter system around the courthouse was added to drain water away from the building and expose the first course of the rustic sandstone base water table. This saved the huge expense of regrading the site.

Tasks accomplished:

1. Produced construction detail drawings by translating sketches from the senior technical consultant.

2. Created 3D visuals to be included in the proposal and for better communication of design.
