TURNER BUSINESS CENTER NORTH
This upscale business/warehouse & distribution
center was constructed using site cast tilt-up concrete panels.
“Tilt-up” was selected for its speed of construction,
substantial appearance and low maintenance.
Covered storefronts combined with generous storage areas were
designed to accommodate both wholesale and retail operations.
A narrow site
required the development of “sawtoothed” loading docks.
This feature has proven to be popular with customers.
The lease to a call center required the conversion of 40,000 s.f.
into open office areas. Tilt-up construction allowed large window openings to be cut
into walls to introduce light to the office areas. This fit-up required
180 tons of air conditioning, 800 pairs of voice/data communication
cables and accommodations for 400 employees.
Design
and construction of this 85,000 s.f. project, including the fit-up for
the call center, was completed in 120 days.
