The facilities were to have a combined pumping capacity of between 7,300 and 8,300 cfs (4,720 and 5,360 MGD) and be operational before the onset of the 2007 hurricane season. Because of the massive quantities of water to be pumped and other critical site driven factors, the team understood that pump cavitation and intake vortexing would be serious issues if the intakes were not designed properly. To address these potential issues, ERDC constructed a series of scale models that of the intakes to determine which intake configurations that would prevent pump cavitation and intake vortexing. The project design team incorporated ERDC modeling defined suggestions into the intake designs and the intakes were constructed and fully operational within the allotted six month design/construction time frame.  Project cost:$180 million.     City of Atlanta Department of Aviation, Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson Airport, MHJIT International Terminal - Current FAA data indicates international passenger volumes at Hartsfield-Jackson could exceed 13 million by 2015.

Themed exhibits are being planned for natural history, regional history including nearby Reelfoot Lake, Native Americans, wildlife, space/science/technology/medicine, art, alternative energy and a children’s exploration area.     U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, Mobile District, Schematic Design for the Space and Missile Defense Command Headquarters, Redstone Arsenal, Huntsville, Alabama - Mr. Barry was the Project Manager for the design and production of schematic plans for a three phased office complex with laboratory, auditorium and cafeteria totaling 660,000 square feet on a 215 acre site. The Department of Defense Physical Security Program, DOD 5200.8-R, May 1991, and Interim Department of Defense Antiterrorism/Force Protection Construction Standards, 16 December 1999, with Appendix EE, were implemented for all phases of site and building construction. The Army needed a highly secure campus that could be phased to house not only the command but the research and development functions for the Space and Missile Defense Command. Three five story buildings were placed a round a central courtyard with connectors. The Main entrance is located facing the street for convenience for visitors and with other employee and service entrances located adjacent to parking areas. The parking is held back at least 100' feet from the building to create a landscaped security zone which also places the building in a park like setting. The Buildings are designed to allow for change to occur easily by having large column-free spaces surrounding service cores. Large windows are throughout to provide ample natural light for employees spending long hours in intensive work situations. There is a cafeteria along with other supporting employee amenities to create efficiency for employees, having all the services they need on site. The exterior design projects an image of stability and control by the use of brick, precast concrete and glass, and is a compatible neighbor to adjacent office buildings.

The flood protection elevations of Metro Center Levee, 3 miles in length, were raised to the estimated 500 year flood plus superiority with a combination of additional compacted fill and retaining structures. Included in the modifications were raising the overtopping elevations of the gatewell for the dry side of the levee and the addition of a 10' x 10' sluice gate. All modifications to the levee were made to USACE standards.   U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Nashville District, Pinhook Creek Channel Improvements, Huntsville, AL – Mr. Barry was the Project Manager for design and production of Schematic Plans for channel improvements to Pinhook Creek from Governors Drive to north of Holmes Avenue, approximately 0.8 miles, in Huntsville, Alabama. The Project will add approximately 40-feet of width to the existing channel cross-section and 3:1 side slopes. This additional width will reduce the frequency with which Pinhook Creek floodwaters get out of bank and will reduce the floodplain area for the 100-year flood. This reduction in flood frequency and area is intended to enhance property values in this central business district area and to encourage economic development. Additionally the design combines the channel improvements with a bikeway, greenway, promenade and plaza that provide for public use and enjoyment of the stream from both above and within. Also incorporated into the design are weirs and pools, waterfalls, low water crossings, a fountain and an amphitheater. Pedestrian connections were developed to the Big Springs Park and future development on the west side of the creek as well as extensions both north and south to future trail systems. The various paved public routes and spaces around and within the channel were enhanced with flood tolerant plantings which require minimal maintenance. The presence of two power substations and an industrial railroad bridge were integrated into the design as features rather than trying to camouflage them. This innovation is conservative in the best sense in that it attempts to utilize those intrusive elements as visually exciting features with paint and lighting that focuses attention on them. Additional responsibilities included the structural design of modifications to two bridges by adding one or more spans to accommodate the new channel width, the design of an in=place replacement structure for the railroad bridge, the design of a new street crossing, the design of a new bridge providing access to the Von Braun Center, the design of eight pedestrian bridges and the demolition of three existing bridges.
