Preparing for Construction Start

Phase 1 Site Logistics - Excavation, concrete foundations, and structural steel.

We have been busy here at Adolfson and Peterson getting ready for the ground breaking and the official start of construction. The building plans are in for review with the City of Minneapolis and are awaiting word back on the Building Permit. This is the key to us starting work on site. Plans are being put in place for site logistics for the first phase of construction. Temporary electrical for jobsite is due to be connected in the next couple weeks. With approval we will mobilize the jobsite trailer and get offices set up.

Eric Thomsen, A&P Sr. Superintendent, has held meetings with the neighborhood to discuss construction sequencing and logistics.  Bill Blotske, Lead Estimator, and Dave Herzberg, Senior Project Manager, have been busy soliciting bids for the different trades and compiling the construction budget. I have been working with our team to get a 3D model built to allow us to coordinate construction activities and to perform 3D spacial coordination of the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems within the new building.
