SHUMAKER CONSULTING ENGINEERING & LAND SURVEYING, D.P.C.
PROVIDES ENGINEERING FOR MULTIPLE LEED-CERTIFIED BUILDING PROJECTS

Local engineering firm, Shumaker Consulting Engineering & Land Surveying, D.P.C. (SCE), with offices located in Binghamton, NY; Utica, NY; Albany, NY; and Montrose, PA provided engineering services to multiple building projects that recently received accreditation under the US Green Building Council’s (USGBC) Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) program.

SCE provided site civil engineering and stormwater design for the new Natural Science Building at the Broome Community College, which was recently awarded the LEED – Silver rating by the USGBC. Under the design management of HOLT Architects, SCE provided all site engineering for the project. SCE’s tasks included increased parking using porous pavements, innovative stormwater green infrastructure which included stormwater planters, and infiltration measures to minimize any offsite stormwater impacts from the project.

SCE engineers also provided the site civil engineering and stormwater management design for a new dormitory at SUNY Cortland, subsequently named “Dragon Hall”. This 5-story dormitory project was awarded LEED – Platinum status, which is the highest attainable level of sustainability. The project was completed under the design management of Stantec, and is the first dormitory in New York State to receive such a high rating.

“These are high-performance, energy efficient, and sustainable designs which focus on minimizing environmental impacts to offsite areas” said Curtis Nichols of Shumaker Consulting Engineering & Land Surveying, D.P.C. and Project Manager for both projects. “This is an exciting and challenging time for high-end structure design because there is always the trade-off between construction costs and the rate of return on efficient and sustainable construction practices”.

SHUMAKER ENGINEERING FOUNDER, VERNON “BUD” O. SHUMAKER, PASSES AWAY

2013-10-16T06:25:00.004-07:00

Vernon Otto Shumaker (Bud) died peacefully on October 1, 2013 surrounded by his loving family and the caring staff at Good Shepherd Fairview Home. Bud is survived by his wife Sarah and children: Barbara S. Levitt (Potomac, MD), Linda M. Shumaker (Binghamton, NY)-President of Shumaker Consulting Engineering & Land Surveying, D.P.C., Frederick F. Shumaker (Binghamton, NY), and Robert D. Shumaker (New York, NY). Bud is also survived by grandchildren: Karen L. Levitt (Alexandria, VA), Emma M. Levitt (Boston, MA), April F. Shumaker (Binghamton, NY), and Katharine H. Shumaker (Loveland, CO) and sons-in-law Joseph A. Levitt (Potomac, MD) and Peter A. Leddy (Binghamton, NY). Bud is predeceased by his daughter Karen Jean, mother Laura Helen, father Fred, and brother Robert. Born in Stroudsburg, PA on November 15, 1921, Bud's life exemplified the Greatest Generation – he grew up during the deprivation of the Great Depression, served in the US Navy in World War II, and then helped build America to prominence after the war. Bud received his Civil Engineering degree from Cornell University in 1948 where he played the trumpet in the Big Red Marching Band and was active in his fraternity, Phi Kappa Psi. After college, Bud worked at McFarland Johnson Engineers in Binghamton, NY where he became a professional engineer specializing in transportation and infrastructure. It was at a fraternity party back at Cornell however, where he met his wife, Sarah Gardner. They married on September 30, 1950. In 1956, Bud started a civil engineering firm with partner Robert J. Martin. Bud then moved on to start Vernon O. Shumaker Consulting Engineers in 1963, a sole proprietorship based in Vestal, NY. Bud grew his firm to 30 employees and was involved in hundreds of civil engineering projects throughout New York State. Most of the firm's projects took place in New York's Southern Tier and its regional infrastructure continues to benefit from his firm's dedication to quality engineering design. Bud was also one of the founding fathers of the Consulting Engineers Council of New York State. When he retired in 1992, his daughter Linda established the successor firm, Shumaker Consulting Engineering & Land Surveying, D.P.C. which continues Bud's legacy today. Bud was a freemason and a Shriner. He was also a member of Trinity Church, the American Legion, and was active in Cornell Alumni activities. As an avid outdoorsman, Bud spent much time in his later years maintaining the farm in Silver Lake, PA. Above all though, Bud cherished his wife and children and his steadfast support and love for his family will endure forever

SHUMAKER IS FAA CERTIFIED AND OFFERS A-GIS SERVICES FOR AVIATION PROJECTS

2013-02-20T11:50:00.004-08:00

Shumaker Consulting Engineering & Land Surveying, D.P.C. (SCE) provides a complete range of survey and mapping services related to aviation engineering including geodetic and primary control surveys; photogrammetric control surveys; ROW surveying and mapping; global positioning system (GPS) surveys; digital terrain model surveys; geographic information systems (GIS); and other survey services necessary to design construction projects. SCE also offers specialized survey/mapping services, such as aerial photography, photogrammetry, and stereocompilation, through a subcontracting agreement with selected subcontracting firms.

SCE A-GIS Experience

Our project experience includes numerous aviation projects at general aviation and commercial airports. We have completed the following A-GIS surveying services at Greater Binghamton Regional Airport and Ticonderoga Municipal Airport:

·   Survey preplanning

·   Quality control plan

·   PAC & SAC recovery and verification

·   Temporary and project control establishment

·   Design survey

·   Post-construction survey

·   Digital mapping preparation for upload to FAA GIS website

·   A-GIS formatting/data migration translation

What A-GIS Accomplishes

Collection of air transportation geospatial data for use with the Geospatial digital Airport Obstruction Chart (AOC) which is a 1:12000-scale graphic depicting:

* Airport layout features

* Landmark objects used as spatial reference (shorelines, prominent buildings and linear features)

* Reference Data including the Airport Control Point, Airport Reference Point, Runway threshold positions and up to 39 different types of Navaid Equipment

* Obstruction Identification Surface (OIS) Features and Obstructions including FAR-77 surfaces, Obstacles above or below the OIS, Obstruction Area, and Data relating to imaginary surfaces that define safe altitudes for approaches and landings (Obstruction Identification as specified in FAR Part 77)

A-GIS and NextGen FAA Requirements

“GIS surveys are being conducted to provide detailed geospatial data about airports. The data will be used for new Localizer Performance with Vertical Guidance (LPV) approaches, including obstruction analyses, as well as electronic Notices to Airmen and flight deck airport moving maps. The central database for airport GIS data enhances sharing of both safety-critical data (such as runway end points or the location of navigational aids) and non-safety-critical data (such as the location of a building on the airfield). In addition to providing users with current data, it will improve airport planning efforts with more efficient reviews of airport layout plan updates.”

- Federal Aviation Administration NextGen Implementation Plan March 2010

Mandated Compliance

Compliance with AC 16, 17 and 18 is mandatory for the collection of geospational airport and aeronautical data funded under Federal grant assistance programs.

A-GIS Certification

SCE Surveying Staff has attained Level III Certification for the following FAA Advisory Circulars:

·   AC 150/5300 – 16

Survey Control IAW NGS Standards

·   AC 150/5300 – 17

Imagery Acquisition IAW FGDC/ASPRS Standards

·   AC 150/5300 – 18

Data Collection IAW AAS-1 Standards

Value of A-GIS Certification:

Utilizing the guidance set forth in the FAA Advisory Circulars provides a standardized collection of airport features/data, maintenance, and accessibility to individual airports.
SCE will provide our client with the following benefits in accordance with FAA Regulations:

·   Efficiency of survey/imagery acquisition process

·   Accessibility of past data set

·   Streamlined airport survey process

·   Centralized storage of airport resources

·   Uniformity throughout all phases of feature/data collection, storage, and final disposition

·   Upload and validation of data to FAA A-GIS

·   Compliance with FAA funding mandates
