Scope Of Work
Nebraska Furniture Mart, Texas is a 564,000 square foot, multi-floor retail facility designed to showcase and sell merchandise, attached to the 1.3 million square foot distribution center with an additional 330,000 square feet of mezzanine space as well as customer pickup area that support the retail center. The project, which is the anchor of The Colony's Grandscape mixed use retail development, also includes a data center and central plant.
Both structures use a tilt-wall exterior structure, with steel, joists and metal deck, and share a white thermo-plastic membrane roof. The entrance façade of the retail center features Texas limestone, plaster, exposed structural steel, aluminum composite panels, large graphics and banner areas, and storefront and curtainwall glass systems. The roof of the retail center includes three Kal-wall skylights.
The distribution center is designed around high rack storage and very narrow aisle systems (construction documents were actually developed after the racks were designed on this project). It features 630,000 square feet of super flat floors in the high bay areas, 169 loading docks, a furniture repair area with a paint booth, and office areas.
