Design/Build & New Construction
Client: Duro Bag Company, Inc.
Location: Ludlow, Kentucky

Project:
Design/build project with Radius construction to develop a new storage building to replace an existing wood pole building which could not meet code and fire compliance. New structure was a steel structure framed and built over the framework and existing foundation and slab.

Details:
The project demanded that the building be completed in four weeks from start to finish. Building was: divided into four bays of 23' or 22' widths; sprinklered throughout new sections added to modified existing; interior accessed by huge 14' x 12' overhead steel sliding door; and small moving crane was incorporated for transferring large loads.

Design involved wrapping one corner around an existing pump house - which supplied the loop sprinkler system. All existing public utilities had to be modified and relocated with skillful precision - as the plant had to be operated continuously throughout the construction of new building.

Building dimensions were 4,950 SF. with 18' wall heights, all steel wall panels, roof, and structural framework.
