Mecklenburg Times: Frampton Construction completes Delta Industrial Park facility
Located on Delta Drive directly off I-85, the park benefits from prominent roadway visibility and easy interstate access. The cross-dock building is constructed of concrete tilt walls and structural steel, with a 40-foot clear height, 180 dock positions, and four drive-in doors.
Notable items in the scope of work included the installation of a fire water tank measuring 31 feet in diameter with a capacity of 138,000 gallons, and the construction of a 64-foot retaining wall consisting of approximately 10,000 segmental blocks. Frampton also coordinated the complex construction of a new high-voltage transmission tower by Duke Energy.
Joey Smith, vice president of Frampton Construction, said, “We’re very proud of our team and trade partners for delivering this high-quality industrial building. The site work on this project was a monumental task unlike any other project. Over one million cubic yards of dirt was moved to get the site pad-ready. The Frampton project team and all of our trade partners worked tirelessly through various challenges and delivered an incredible project.”
