Progress on floor and walls continues in Fairbank

In the picture that is part of this post, you can see that work continues on the exterior walls in Fairbank. All told, about 60% of the exterior block bearing walls are complete, and about 75% of the slab on grade (concrete floor) is complete. It won't be long and residents will see a crane arrive in Fairbank to begin setting the joists on the north section of the building. After the roof joists are set, we'll see the steel go on the roof as well. Something that has become more apparent to me over the past couple weeks is the pretty tall task of coordinating a construction site and its operation. Larson Construction is the general contractor and Struxture Architects is the architect, of course. However, there are several sub-contractors also working on the job and it is the responsibility of Larson Construction to coordinate the efforts of all the subs--and their own workers as well. In order to see consistent progress, people need to have space to work, materials to work with, and progress on one part of the job site in order for someone else to begin their work. It truly is an amazing task to coordinate that work and we are happy to have Struxture and Larson working on that part of the project.
