This new, 5 story parking garage, located in the heart of the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus, accommodates an increased demand for parking due to the recent construction of the Meat Science and Veterinary Medicine buildings. The structure has three entrances and two glass elevators located on the north and south corners of the building. Our scope of work included demolition of existing underground electrical, new medium voltage duct bank, lighting, power, fire alarm system, security cameras, access control, and an emergency generator set.

Embedded conduit within ½” tolerance

Shine1

This 32,700 square-foot isotope production facility will use a patented, proprietary manufacturing process to produce medical isotopes such as molybdenum-99 (moly-99), the essential component in medical imaging procedures used to diagnose heart disease and other conditions.  We will install over 17,000 feet of conduit in the concrete floors and walls of the facility.  All conduit is galvanized rigid steel, mostly 2” or larger.  These conduit racks and runs have exclusively been built in our prefabrication facility. QA/QC is critical on this project as embedded conduit has to be within ½” tolerance of designed locations. Large multi-conduit assemblies are prefabricated and shipped to the jobsite, where they are picked by crane and set in place for final assembly. The significant prefabrication is critical because minimizing the labor on-site allows us to avoid the high potential for personal injury that can occur on such a project.

Hormel Foods Corporation relocated its SPAM production facility from Omaha to Dubuque’s 348,000 square-foot Progressive Processing plant. The project included two phases of work – the dismantling of the production line in Omaha and the rebuilding of the line in Dubuque. During Phase I, we traveled to the Omaha plant to thoroughly audit, tag, and test equipment, calculate power requirements, and determine an efficient power and installation plan for the rebuild. The relocation was set to be completed in an aggressive 19 day schedule. The project was midway through when the coronavirus pandemic hit, resulting in a significant spike in demand for SPAM, and making it critical for production to get up and running quickly. Phase I electrical work was completed ahead of schedule and exceeded both the general contractor and client’s quality standards.

Phase II of the project included adding a new production line to the existing facility. Our scope included installation of stainless steel raceways, new lighting, power, and controls for complex food processing equipment. The project required thoughtful and inventive planning in order to integrate various production lines and limit downtime. The efficient and quality work is a product of our partnership with Hormel to oversee ongoing maintenance, service and emergency electrical services at their plant.

This is a new 176 room, 188,000 square-foot hotel constructed on the University of Wisconsin campus adjacent to the Kohl Center, the home of UW’s basketball and hockey teams. Our work included lighting, power, voice/data cabling, emergency power, and fire alarm system. The entire project had an extensive 3D model created by the ours and others’ advanced virtual construction team. The BIM model was used for extensive multi-trade prefabrication for the entire project. The condensed mechanical areas were modeled in detail in order to complete the project on an aggressive timeline. Hotel rooms were fully mocked up to confirm locations of all contractors’ scopes of work.

This project consisted of remodeling 92,000 square feet of the existing school, plus a 48,000 square-foot addition. The project had an aggressive schedule that required us to work on second and third shifts to complete, since the school was in operation during construction. Our project scope included the installation of new light fixtures, a PA system, clock system, fire alarm system, emergency power and new voice/data cabling by our Globalcom Technologies division. While the remodeling took place, the addition was being built at the same time. During the summer break, a new 2500 amp 480V electrical system and emergency generator power system was installed.

35KV exterior substation

There are three major phases to this project: 1) the construction of a new 35KV exterior substation, 2) demolition of existing facilities, and 3) construction of a new headquarters building.

For the substation work, our scope includes installing six medium voltage feeders in concrete duct banks to various substation locations on campus. Coordination of the various shutdowns on an active campus will be challenging.

The demolition work requires razing five buildings and an interior gut of four existing buildings. Our challenge is that many of the campus power and other systems tie into the rest of the campus through these buildings. Service will need to be maintained during demolition or rerouted prior to in order to keep the disruption of the occupied spaces to a minimum.

The new, 170,000 square feet of headquarters space consists of two new buildings constructed from the ground up and four existing buildings that will be completely renovated, with some areas remaining occupied during the remodeling. We are installing new power, LED lighting, lighting controls, fire alarm, and low voltage systems into the new headquarters.
