M3 has played a pivotal role in shaping Arizona’s inaugural Olympic-style velodrome, providing essential design and engineering services. M3’s focus has been on the structural engineering aspects, including concrete track foundations, aluminum track superstructure, and the development of an underground access tunnel. The envisioned velodrome will span 250 meters, featuring 40-degree banked turns, alongside key

Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak was among other dignitaries and investors on hand for the recent grand opening of the new Lithium Americas Technical Center in Reno, Nevada.  The new Technical Center showcases Lithium Americas pilot plant for the process of extracting lithium material from local sources.  M3 provided full architectural, engineering, and construction management services

New Orovada Schoolhouse

M3 is developing designs for a new public schoolhouse to serve K-8 students in the rural community of Orovada in Nevada.  This will replace an existing school in the area dating from the 1950s, and will also include a kitchen, sports facilities, and other features that will also help serve the needs of the local

M3, with collaboration of the University of Chicago, successfully completed a Preliminary Design Review of the Cosmic Microwave Background Stage 4 (CMB-S4) Laboratory Building. The CMB-S4 Laboratory building will act as a central support facility serving adjacent small aperture telescopes studying cosmic background radiation. Located at the South Pole, the project faces unique challenges in

The University of Arizona Construction Engineering Management program sent a Commercial Building team and a Heavy Civil team to the Associated Schools of Construction Region 6 & 7 competition held on February 9-12, 2022, in Reno, Nevada.  M3 was proud to have supported the U of A team for the event and sends a heartfelt

The W.M. Keck Observatory is located near the summit of Mauna Kea, on the Big Island of Hawaii.  The W.M. Keck Observatory is a two-telescope observatory with two 10 meter optical/infrared telescopes.  In its commitment to reduce the organization’s carbon footprint and lower the cost of energy, W.M. Keck Observatory installed a solar PV system.

Congratulations to GMTO on passing their successful Preliminary Design Review (PDR) for the Telescope Pier and Seismic Isolation System for the Giant Magellan Telescope.  This historic milestone was facilitated by an international peer review panel comprised of distinguished, world-renowned seismic isolation and ground motion experts.  M3 provided structural engineering services for design of the Telescope

VENTILATION AS A PREVENTIVE MEASURE

The airway as a source of infection for COVID gives more importance to the proper use of ventilation as a main preventive measure to complement social distancing, the use of masks and hand washing. From the preventive point of view, to minimize the possibility of infection we must consider some principles: reducing the concentration of

On top of the measures previously shared, mining units or the locations where projects are being executed usually have their safety guidelines concerning the health emergency we are currently going through. If you must travel to site for work, the following is recommended: Do not share personal material such as harnesses, masks, and hearing and
