Arby’s

Soos provided architectural services for the remodel and conversion of this outdated and deteriorating Arby’s.
Services included full interior and exterior building design and finishes, full ‘brand’ development for new interior décor package, preparing construction documents and written specifications, bidding, construction administration , and permitting. Soos’ work allowed the client to develop a scope and a program that was utilized to remodel many of their Chicagoland restaurants.

The project scope included a full building assessment, identification and specifications for repairs and upgrades to failing roof, and structural modifications for the removal of the existing mansard. Soos successfully adapted the exterior façade and interior environment to the desired branded prototype image through the use of numerous building finishes ranging from synthetic stucco, masonry, concrete and wood. Existing exterior windows and doors were replaced with new energy efficient systems to improve the building envelope performance. Mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems and utilities were all relocated and
upgraded.

Construction documents were performed in AutoCAD and all printing was done in house. Construction coordination was performed with all consultants and trades for compliance with specifications and construction documents.
