RK&K’s Post

RK&K summer intern and University of South Florida student Lou Obateru is working with our Natural Resources team, helping to write up technical memorandums for permits needed by the Florida Department of Transportation, creating maps of local keystone animal habitats, and spending time in the field as a surveyor of endangered species populations. He shares how this hands-on work enhances his education and sets him up for success in his future environmental career! #WeAreRKK

We love these photos from Baltimore City DPW of Construction Manager Brent A. Wolfe, P.E.,CCM leading a group of STEMcx students on a tour of the Druid Hill Lake and Ashburton/Hanlon Park Tank project sites. The students learned about RK&K’s role constructing new concrete finished water storage tanks and other improvements to restore these crucial facilities, along with seeing the STEM skills they’re learning applied to real-world work! #WeAreRKK

We are #RKKProud to see construction completion of eight new stormwater management facilities at Elk Neck State Park in Cecil County, MD!                Check out the video below ⬇️ to learn more about the environmental benefits of RK&K’s design for these important projects. #WeAreRKK

Last night, the CMAA National Capital Chapter honored the DC Water Clean Rivers Rock Creek B Green Infrastructure Project with their "Best Infrastructure Project of 2023 - Less than $25 Million Category” award.   RK&K served as Construction Manager on this project, which focused on the construction of green infrastructure to reduce the volume of combined sewer overflow and flooding in the District of Columbia. Congratulations and great job to all our team members who contributed to this important work! #RKKProud #WeAreRKK

Interns in action! RK&K summer interns Gurvansh Singh and Patrick Droney recently assisted with our Baltimore team’s inspection of the Woodrow Wilson Bridge. “I feel like most engineering interns aren't getting this kind of hands-on experience with bridges of this size, so I enjoyed every minute of it and am trying to absorb as much knowledge as I can,” said Patrick.   Great job, you two! #WeAreRKK

During #NationalSafetyMonth and beyond, Construction Manager Calvin Myers ensures his teams are prepared and informed about every possible risk on a project site before they even step foot in the field with targeted training and experience gained from past work. #WeAreRKK 

We are grateful RK&K has once again earned a spot on Engineering News-Record Mid-Atlantic’s Top Design-Firms ranking! This placement couldn’t have been achieved without our clients continuing to choose us for their project work and our team members who bring their plans to life. We are honored to have your trust and to serve you! #RKKProud #WeAreRKK

For today’s summer intern spotlight, we spoke to Virginia Tech student Ashlyn O'Neill who enjoyed her internship at RK&K so much in 2023 that she came back for another year! She said she is “building upon the foundation” of her engineering knowledge while working on projects and problem-solving with our Highway Design department. #WeAreRKK
