Eleven IMEG projects were named Best Projects or Awards of Merit in their respective ENR regions for 2024. 

ENR New York/New Jersey 

KIPP Hatch Middle School in Camden, NJ, won an ENR New York/New Jersey Best Project Award in the K-12 Education category.  

IMEG provided structural engineering services for the project, which completely renovated a school, which was built in 1923 and had a three-story addition in the 1980s. Structural work included the reinforcement of floors and load bearing walls for new openings to allow for the addition of mechanical systems, support of rooftop mechanical units, and replacement of the 1980s building roof that was observed to have multiple roof truss failures during the initial due diligence study. 

ENR Texas & Louisiana  

Harwood Park in Dallas, TX, won an ENR Texas & Louisiana Award of Merit in the Landscape/Urban Development category.  

The new 4-acre urban park serves the Dallas Farmers Market area, linking downtown with Deep Ellum. Design and play structures drew inspiration from Columbian mammoths that roamed the plains of North Texas 12,000 years ago. 

JQ, now IMEG provided structural engineering services for renovations of the existing buildings that were incorporated into the urban park. 

Frisco Public Library in Frisco, TX, won an ENR Texas & Louisiana Best Project Award in the Renovation/Restoration category.  

The 158,000-sf former Beal Aerospace building was transformed into the new Frisco Public Library. Tripling the space of the former library, it features reading rooms for all ages, a social staircase, a new community event center, second-floor mezzanine, and rooftop terrace.  

JQ, now IMEG provided structural engineering, civil engineering, and land survey services for the project.  

Wylie WTP IV Filter Repairs in Wylie, TX, won an ENR Texas & Louisiana Award of Merit in the Water/Environment Category.  

Excessive leakage from the filter cells into the filter influent and effluent pipe galleries due to deficient concrete conditions prompted structural repairs to the existing gallery to filter cell common walls. Improvements consist of 8-inch-thick dry shotcrete application on over 12,000-sf of gallery wall. Shotcreting was selected as primary concrete delivery due to severely limited access to the gallery making conventional cast-in-place construction infeasible. Improvements were sequenced with seasonal water delivery demands and filter operations restrictions. The project provides the District with improved safe working conditions and facility longevity. Other improvements include new sample stations and associated piping, new gallery sump control, and rehabilitation of Filter 4 interior. 

JQ, now IMEG served as the Prime Consultant providing project management, structural engineering, and survey services.
