AECOM/URS/NC Turnpike Authority is Expanding in Morrisville

Construction started this past week on an expansion of the AECOM/URS call center space in Morrisville, NC.  AECOM/URS is a subcontractor for the NC Turnpike Authority and manages toll collection for the agency.

The expanded office space will add much needed seats in the company’s call center space as more toll roads come online in North Carolina.

Demolition work commenced this week.

The project is being delivered via the Architect-led Design-Build process with Gontram Architecture.

Construction is scheduled to be complete in early 2018.

Wake Spine – 02 – Framing in progress

Resilient Channel for acoustical benefits between exam rooms
Wall framing underway

In the 2nd week of construction on Wake Spine’s latest location, metal stud framing was well underway.  20-gauge metal studs line the halls and divide exam rooms.  Electrical boxes are roughed-in and plumbing work is underway.

Resilient channel is run horizontally from stud to stud to help reduce sound transmission between exam rooms.

The new Raleigh, NC location is expected to be open for patients in January 2018.

Enthalpy Analytical Expansion Nearing Completion

Lab construction underway
Lab construction underway

In 2000, one of the very first projects Gontram Architecture and Ten Penny Construction delivered using the Architect-led Design-Build method was the Connor Properties Lab and Office Building in Durham, NC.  The anchor tenant for that 20,000 sq. ft. building was Enthalpy Analytical, a laboratory that specializes in analyzing for pollutants and other constituents in air, soil, water and tobacco products.

Since 2000, Enthalpy Analytical has grown several times.  Most recently in 2011, they added a 2nd location.  Each time, Enthalpy contacted Gontram Architecture and Ten Penny Construction to facilitate its growth.

Now, Enthalpy Analytical is consolidating its operations in one location, expanding into adjacent tenant space and adding laboratory space.  Once again, Gontram Architecture and Ten Penny Construction are coordinating the effort through Architect-led Design-Build for a streamlined approach to the design and construction process.

An interesting element of the project is the construction of a steel platform behind the laboratory space.  This platform will support a 3000-gallon liquid nitrogen tank, and hold it up 2 feet above the floodplain, as required by FEMA and Durham Floodplain Management. It will end up being 9’+ above the ground, weighing over 37,000 pounds when full!

…all in the name of science!

NC School Boards Association Assembly Hall gets facelift

The North Carolina School Boards Association building in Raleigh is home to numerous office tenants along with the Association that represents public school personnel.  On the ground floor of the building is a large Assembly Hall that is used for group meetings and conferences.

Assembly Hall

Assembly Hall – Before

The room was in desperate need of an upgrade, and Ten Penny Construction came equipped to propose material options, discuss pricing alternatives, and perform the work in less than 2 weeks time.

The project involved various sheetrock repairs, new carpet tiles, new wallcovering, new ceiling tiles, new LED lighting with a lighting control system, new ceramic tile, new paint, and re-installation of their photo display millwork.

The entire room and two common corridors were upgraded as part of this project.
