LJB provided structural engineering for this single-story, medical office building for the Veterans Administration (VA). The outpatient clinic is 24,800 square feet and houses primary care services, mental health services, physical therapy, audiology, and a pathology lab. The primary structural elements are steel braced frames, steel moment frames, and load bearing concrete masonry units (CMU). To enhance the architectural appeal of the facility, several roof heights were incorporated into the design, including a central spine with gabled roof that created a clerestory effect on the interior. The building has blast-resistant design measures to protect those working in and utilizing the services at this facility.
