Scope Of Work
This project utilized load-bearing precast walls with a membrane roof to house a two story office area, repair shop, and warehousing area using racking systems. This project used on in-floor hydronic heating system for the shop and warehouse areas. Items that made it unique are the radius glass curtain wall system in the front corner, with an exposed stairway following that radius to the second floor. The stairway also had radius glass railing and the entire entry, including the stairs, were covered with marble. The project delivery method was unique in that we competitively bid the foundations, concrete, floor, structural steel, precast, and erection. The owner subcontracted earthwork, exterior concrete, mechanical and electrical. The remainder of the project was awarded to us on a cost plus basis due to design of interior not being finished, so we did assist the owner and architect in design build to finish the building.
