The design team is pursuing LEED® Platinum certification with the United States Green Building Council (USGBC), which is currently the highest level of green building certification obtainable.
Civil engineering design incorporated site sustainable features such as designated car pool and fuel efficient vehicle parking spaces, restoration and preservation of existing habitat, doubling of the amount of open space required by code, and incorporating rainwater harvesting to irrigate the green roof. Design proposed underground stormwater treatment and retention in order to minimize the development footprint and preserve existing forested areas on the site.

First Green Bank Frontage Road, Eustis Florida
Tri3 is providing design, permitting, and construction
administration/management services for an approximate 650 linear feet of frontage road. This road will provide secondary access to commercial properties and future development areas along the US Hwy 441 corridor.
Stormwater treatment and retention is being provided via a series of underground concrete vaults. The system is open bottom, allowing stormwater runoff to be captured and to percolate back into the Florida aquifer.
The project site is located on Plant Street, just east and adjacent to the City Hall building.
Barry University School of Law, Orlando, Florida
The new facility will provide 5 moot courtrooms, seminar rooms, and administration Staff office space. The proposed site civil design incorporates sustainable design features such as alternative paving materials to reduce heat island affects and the reuse of stormwater for irrigation purposes.

Tri3 is providing civil engineering design, permitting, and construction administration services for a building expansion of approximately 3,640 sf of research laboratory space. Permitting will also accommodate the future expansion of an additional 3,640 sf of laboratory space. This is a design/build project for the University of Central Florida’s Facilities Improvements department.
Stormwater permitting will be required through the St. John’s River Water Management District (SJRWMD) for the relocation an existing storm water pond.
The design team will pursue at a minimum LEED® Silver Certification through the US Green Building Council (USGBC). Tri3 will assist with the preparation of civil engineering related LEED Credit Templates, calculations, and supporting documentation required for submittal to the USGBC.
