Description
Design/build process was used to complete this 125,000 square foot complex located on a 25-acre campus. Complex includes a 25,000 SF building to house office, administration and sales. A 100,000 SF building contains truck sales and service facilities, body shop and parts warehouse. The service building also includes a paint booth, DYNO equipment, oil service pits and is completely air conditioned. A 40′ x 90′ canopy provides exterior covering. Facilities also include showers, lounge, laundry and other amenities for drivers. The service building is a Butler pre-engineered structure; the office building is conventional construction with a Butler VSR standing seam roof.

The most challenging aspect of the project was to create a campus environment with the main floor of the office building 16 feet above the service building.
