Project Outline

JAPA Machinery Group approached us to build a state-of-the-art facility designed to sell, house, and service their extensive line of heavy equipment. The result is a 19,125 sq. ft. pre-engineered building with a 3,250 sq. ft. structural steel mezzanine, corrugated steel cladding, an 8 bay service shop (including wash bay), small parts department, and the installation of three 5-ton bridge cranes. 

Project Challenges

When the project was 75% complete, we were tasked to change the exterior of the front office. After some collaboration and negotiations with the project engineer, an architect, and our suppliers, we were able to fulfill the request without any major changes to the existing structure. This last-minute request from the client did impact the final budget and completion date. 

Project Successes

Although the windows for the front office were already framed, we came up with an innovative solution that blended the aesthetics of the new front office into the existing building exterior without having to completely overhaul the entire building facade.
