1是Inova办公楼tallest tilt-up building ever constructed in the Denver Tech Center. The surface area of its exterior walls spans more than 55,000 sq ft. Many of the 66 wall panels are more than 80 ft high. The project also is the first building on a 58-acre, mixed-use campus that ultimately will include offices, industrial, hotel and residential components. The project has earned LEED Silver certification.

With a floor area of 212,000 sq ft, the Class A office building features 14.5-ft ceiling heights and 9-ft-high windows. The core-and-shell was started before the owner secured a tenant, and the team had to change the design after Comcast signed up to place more than 1,000 employees in the building.

The tilt-up panels also had to be modified to avoid the need for a 400-ton crane, which would have had to come from outside the state. Instead, the contractor’s staff created wider openings in the panels as well as making the panels thinner and using lightweight concrete. As a result, the panels could be lifted by a 300-ton crane, available in Colorado. The savings on transportation alone was $200,000.

天气也带来了挑战,因为今年的积雪达到了正常的160%。为了保持面板干燥并避免延误,船员用帐篷保护了它们,而不是让它们被雪覆盖,然后等待融化。

从最初的投机发展开始,效率至关重要。为了改善沟通和协调,承包商在施工站点上设置了一台计算机,从而创建了一个移动工作区,并制定了RFIS和计划立即为机组人员提供。这避免了浪费时间到建筑拖车的旅行,提高了质量并减少了打孔列表项目的数量。承包商还拥有一名全职员工,致力于质量控制,这使院长能够在租用空间后专注于设计更改。

作为可持续发展计划的一部分,该团队以令人印象深刻的速度回收了工作地点材料。机组人员设置了分隔箱,并从垃圾填埋场中转移了75%的建筑废物,有助于实现使用该地区20%的材料以及许多再生材料的目标。
