Scope Of Work
This manufacturing facility and office building was built for Mensor, a leading designer and manufacturer of pressure and temperature calibration devices based in San Marcos, Texas. Built using insulated tiltwall construction, the facility is set on a 3.5-acre site.
The single-story headquarters facility provides 35,000 square feet of space for manufacturing, an integrated testing lab, research and development area, machine shop, a loading dock/truck ramp area, and 10,000 square feet for sales and management offices.
The integrated testing lab is built on an isolated slab to greatly reduce the transmission of vibrations, and is equipped with airtight double doors to eliminate changes in barometric pressure.
The company is located in one of the fastest-growing cities in the nation, and its presence on the Interstate 35 corridor makes it highly visible. The use of the tiltwall process enabled the organization to select a more modern, upscale design for a reasonable budget and allows for future expansion. The company and their new building are frequently touted by the local economic development authority to new companies seeking to relocate to the area as an example of a thriving and growing manufacturing enterprise.
