PES was honored to provide the structural design for the new headquarters for the Atlanta Humane Society. The 39,685 square foot, two-story facility is located on Perry Boulevard, adjacent to the new westside Quarry Yards development, and is less than 15 minutes from the original West Midtown facility.

The structural system consisted of steel framing, metal deck roof sheathing, reinforced slab-on-grade, composite steel elevated floors with concrete slab, and light gauge metal stud walls supported on shallow foundations.

The state-of-the-art Headquarters includes a Reception Area, Auditorium, Adoption Meet-and-Greet Spaces, Public Animal Intake, Animal Housing Kennels, High-Risk Isolation Spaces, Medical Clinics, Veterinary Offices, Treatment Rooms, Radiology Room, Intensive Care, Surgical Operation Rooms, Conference Rooms, Workstations, Quiet Rooms, Locker Rooms, and Showers.
