BKF Engineers provided comprehensive civil engineering and land surveying services to support the phased development of a new mechanical yard and site accessibility improvements at an existing data center located at 3065 Gold Camp Drive in Rancho Cordova, California. The project required strategic site modifications, utility relocations, and accessibility upgrades to accommodate new infrastructure while maintaining uninterrupted operations at the active facility.
BKF began with a detailed boundary and topographic survey, coordinated with underground utility locators to map existing systems, and documented key site features including building corners, curbs, utility structures, and trees. This foundational analysis informed the design and planning of phased improvements.
Phase 1 focused on enhancing site security and access. BKF designed and supported the installation of a new perimeter fence and gated entry/exit, along with demolition plans, horizontal control, grading, and layout for a new public sidewalk to improve pedestrian connectivity.
Phase 2 addressed parking lot reconfiguration and accessibility upgrades. BKF developed layout and grading modifications, relocated utilities, and resolved existing ADA barriers on the north side of the building to ensure compliance and improve site functionality.
Utility infrastructure was rerouted to accommodate the expanded mechanical yard footprint. BKF engineered new alignments for fire protection, domestic water, and storm drainage systems, ensuring service continuity and integration with the new facility layout.
Construction documentation included improvement plans for both phases, and BKF provided ongoing construction support services such as staking and field coordination to ensure accurate implementation of design elements.
This project reflects BKF’s expertise in delivering phased, utility-intensive infrastructure upgrades for mission-critical data center environments, with a focus on precision, accessibility, and operational continuity.
