Advanced Building
Concepts developed and built a
retail/office building, as well as an
office/warehouse complex for a specialty
food company and mechanical contractor.
Many permits and approvals were required
before construction could begin. DEM
approval was required due to adjacent
wetlands, Water Department approval was also
required because the property is located in
a watershed area. Water runoff and detention
pond calculations were also required. Due to
soil conditions, exceptionally deep spread
footings were required at building
foundations. All utilities were separated,
thus allowing the possibility to divide into
condominiums in the future. The roof was
framed to conceal rooftop equipment and
penetrations. Environmental systems are a
combination of gas heating/electric cooling
in the office and retail spaces, warehouse
areas have in-floor hydronic radiant
heating.
The complex was built utilizing the
Design/Build approach, with Advanced
Building Concepts coordinating all
variances, permits and contracts with the
architect and engineers. |
