CHRIST THE KING CATHOLIC CHURCH
RICHLAND, WA

This 18,000 square foot two story addition heightens the aesthetic drama of the classic design. Complementing the existing building, the addition included meeting space, a front entry vestibule, and a unique folding glass partition used to separate the meeting area into smaller spaces. Using a radial framing scheme, it features a curved façade on one side with a tower entrance and large expanses of glass to bathe the space in light.

An old ice arena housing two ice arenas was renovated into this 46,000 square foot church in addition to the one ice arena that remained. Half of the existing space and zamboni garage were converted into a 600 seat sanctuary, with the remaining area converted into a two-story space housing classrooms and offices. Stadium seating utilized steel stud bearing walls and concrete over steel floor deck. A seismic upgrade was performed, and the existing long span roof trusses were analyzed to accommodate cameras, sound system, speakers, roof mounted HVAC units and other audio visual equipment.

Beautiful stained glass windows are eye-catching elements to this design, reflecting the beauty of rural Moses Lake. Two main structural steel trusses span the roof of the sanctuary featuring ornamental glue lam beams. The church features clerestory windows, skylights in entry foyers, classrooms, and a covered breezeway surrounding the courtyard. The roof was built using standing seam metal.

WENATCHEE, WA

Curved ornamental trusses echo the curve of the architectural details of the cross at the front of this one story church. Three main building areas are interconnected. Covered breezeways provide shelter between the buildings. The largest building houses the 9,600 square foot nave. Towers provide added visual interest to the complex. The buildings are wood framed with a brick veneer. The roof over the nave and chapel exhibit exposed trusses, while the roof over the office is constructed using pre-manufactured wood trusses.

HOLY TRINITY CHURCH
PORTLAND, OR

This striking house of faith serves as a center of activity for the local community. Taking appropriate measures to preserve its integrity was vital. Due to the age of the structure, and the City of Portland's requirements, VLMK performed a FEMA-178 seismic analysis. A two story addition provided much needed space. The exterior walls are constructed primarily with light gage metal studs and brick veneer. For lateral force resistance, new reinforced masonry (CMU) shearwalls were added. The floors are constructed with steel and concrete composite beams for added strength.

PRINCE OF PEACE LUTHERAN CHURCH
BEAVERTON, OR

Phase 1 of this church campus project created a new 6,500 square foot masonry multi-purpose and gymnasium building. It also included 10,300 square foot of classrooms and kitchen areas. The new building features exposed barrel vaulted open web roof joists clear spanning the multi-purpose and gymnasium building. A copper standing seam metal roof adds character and warmth. These features were repeated in the new classroom areas, which included covered arcade corridors.
