Post and Courier: Frampton completes Curtiss-Wright manufacturing facility
Frampton Construction Company has completed a build-to-suit industrial manufacturing facility for Curtiss-Wright Corporation located within the Charleston Trade Center in Summerville.
The 144,000-square-foot building is home to Curtiss-Wright’s Steam and Air Solutions business unit and supports the design, manufacture, test, and shipment of U.S. Navy steam turbines and steam valves, nuclear steam turbines, aftermarket steam parts, upgrades, and overhauls. The facility was constructed of precast concrete panels and structural steel with complex heavy manufacturing equipment foundations and ceilings with a 40-foot clear height, tall enough to accommodate large overhead bridge cranes and other specialty equipment.
