Eastvale Fire Station No. 27
Project Summary
Eastvale Fire Station No. 27 was completed in 2011. The 11,000-square foot structure was designed with a “winery aesthetic” to reflect the Eastvale’s historic role in the wine industry.

- Observation and compaction testing during site earthwork, utility trench backfill, and site paving
- Post-tensioned concrete slab inspection
- Soil testing for maximum-density, expansion, classification, corrosion, and R-value
- Concrete compressive strength testing
- Structural steel welding inspection (shop and field) and ultrasonic testing
- Reinforced concrete inspection and test cylinder fabrication
- Reinforced masonry inspection and compressive strength testing of block, prisms, mortar, and grout
