Balcones Recycling

For a new recycling and manufacturing center in San Antonio, TX, LJB provided structural design for a 131,000-square-foot facility housing tipping, production, and baling operations—ready for high-performance industrial use. The building includes a two-story office and an auxiliary maintenance structure. LJB designed foundations, reinforced concrete slabs, three 50-foot-long equipment pits, and a perimeter push wall to support heavy material movement. Tilt-up concrete wall panels were used along the south wall of the plant and all office elevations. LJB’s scope also included truck scale foundations, coordination with the PEMB supplier, and shop drawing review.
