Project Name

Mitchell Mill Development

Location: Wake County, North Carolina In the world of infrastructure design, each project presents its own unique set of challenges and opportunities. At AXA Engineers, we pride ourselves on not just meeting these challenges but exceeding expectations, particularly when it comes to integrating engineering solutions with respect for the environment. The Mitchell Mill Road project in Wake County, North Carolina, serves as a prime example of this approach.

Project Scope and Vision

Nestled within the verdant landscapes of Wake County, the Mitchell Mill Development was conceptualized to offer 382 lots across a sweeping canvas of 142 acres, at a construction density of 3 dwelling units per acre. The vision was clear: to forge a community that not only complements the steep terrain but also preserves the integrity of the wetlands and streams that characterize this idyllic location.

Charting the Challenges

The project was not without its trials, presenting us with challenges that tested the bounds of our expertise:

Crafting the Solutions

Our team at AXA Engineers responded with solutions as innovative as they are respectful of our ecological commitments:

The key to maintaining standard slope requirements was to adjust the roadway profiles, incorporating retaining walls that not only provided the necessary grading for driveways but also added a layer of visual appeal and structural reinforcement.

By positioning retaining walls along the perimeters of wetlands, stream buffers, and electrical easements, we effectively separated the development from these protected areas, ensuring zero encroachment.

Swales were graded alongside the retaining walls, serving as critical components in our stormwater management strategy – preventing water overrun and protecting the ecological sanctuaries adjacent to the development.
