Swedish Medical Center – DJC 2011 Building of the Year

Project Name: Swedish Medical Center
Project Location: Issaquah, WA

While AUE was not the engineer of record, our work on the Swedish Issaquah Medical Center drew on many of the services we offer to our clients. During construction AUE provided the design and shop drawings for the prefabricated exterior light gauge framing panels. These panels, having been assembled off-site and then installed, ultimately shaved 3 months off the construction schedule compared to traditional metal stud framing. Once the main body of the hospital was constructed, AUE was then called on to engineer the handrail and railings on the numerous balconies and stairs. AUE’s work was not done there. To finish out our work on the Swedish Issaquah project, we gave engineering support to decorative elements on the campus. These elements included stone walls and the metal “grass blades” that line the sides of the building in several locations.

  • Client Testimonials

    […] I’d like to comment that I’ve been so pleased with my interactions with Cameron and John that I recommend AUE without reservation to any subs who need engineering work done of their own. They set a standard for responsiveness and receptivity that spoils us for our interactions with other firms.

     - Joe Willis, Architectural Elements

    I’ve worked with AUE for many years on different projects, programs and clients. The AUE team is responsive and easy to work with and deliver a quality product.

     - Karen Wallace, Stantec

    We have worked with Armour Unsderfer for a number of years. We continue to enjoy working with them for our Engineering needs. Working with AUE on Engineering Projects has helped our Autocad Design Company achieve good success with our clients. We would highly recommend AUE.

     - CAD USA North America.

    I have worked with AUE for over 15 years and they have become my preferred Structural engineer for all of my work. Our projects extend all over the US and they have been able to perform at the highest level in all areas of their craft. Their teams are always responsive and professional. They understand our business and that speed to market is paramount. They are nimble and can produce and execute at the pace required for our retail projects. They do a great job covering all of the aspects of the projects and are very responsive. Great team to work with and very team oriented.

     - Glen Middleton, Vice President-Architecture, Interbrand Design Forum

    I first met Brian over 20 years ago. We were remodeling a century old building and trying to make an auto dealer fit in the old building. The obvious solution was not going to work, so what were the options. Brian came up with three on the spot and got back to me a couple hours later with an even better solution. I loved his flexibility and his willingness to find another way of doing what needed to be done. I met Bill shortly after that and have been working with them ever since.

     - Rick Driftmier, TheDriftmier Architects, P.S.

    Buffalo Design has worked with AUE for many years. We really appreciate their commitment to collaboration and their ability to offer creative solutions to design challenges. It’s also great to hear our clients compliment their pragmatic, efficient structural systems as their projects go together. We can always count on AUE to deliver- and the experience is a pleasure.
