Patio Enclosures:


In 2004, the parent company of Patio Enclosures wanted to build a new commercial building in Miamisburg near the Dayton Mall to be used as a showroom for their products, as well as leased space for some other commercial enterprises. Norton Engineering LLC was hired to engineer the project, including the site planning.

The building itself was to use some of the products that Patio Enclosures sells (a large enclosed patio), so the main goal of designing the site was to make it look like a lovely home backyard while still functioning as a place of business.

A certain detention basin volume was needed to provide for Stormwater management for the new building and parking lot and for some future expansion of the site. One small, normally dry basin was placed right in the front of the lot where it provides an attractive site landscaping feature, while detaining new storm surge runoff from the new building and parking lot surfaces. A second shallow dry basin with a filter drainage strip was installed in the rear of the property to manage a small spring feeding water onto the back of the site. A parking lot filter drain completes the picture; all combine to provide for storm management and future expansion. The detention basins look like a natural little ponds and the parking lot filter drain all around its edge isn't even visible to the normal visitor.
