River Center and Senior Center

Benton, AR

In this Little Rock suburb, the community passed a “quality of life” tax in order to fund a new project on the site of the old Benton Airport. As part of the 17,000-square-foot senior wellness and activity center and 110,982-square-foot River Center aquatics facilities, the project featured a pre-engineered metal building and a pool structure. Our team coordinated with the building manufacturer and developed a creative solution to design our structures around theirs.

Competitive pool with deck seating
Leisure pool with children’s area
Pool lift
Walk-in ramp
Two-story water slide that extends inside and outside of the building
Fitness room on the second floor (special considerations made for heavy load and vibrations)
Basketball and volleyball courts with seating

[Live Oak] takes the project budget seriously, treating it as if it [were their] own, resulting in efficiently engineered structures that serve the needs of our clients. Live Oak meets project schedules and budgets, and they do not mind the inevitable last-minute change.

The personal attention paid to their clients and projects is only surpassed by their quality of work. I would highly recommend Live Oak Engineering to anyone looking for a quality and personal experience.

Pete Butera, Director

I fully trust Patrick and his team to give me a flexible, working design with support when structural models do not mirror architectural models. His drawings are clear and concise, and his team is readily available when issues arise.
