This 1.2 million-square-foot light industrial building was originally designed by an engineer who had limited experience with the tilt-up concrete method. LJB’s expertise with this construction method and deep understanding of its construction allowed us to redesign this facility much more efficiently by value engineering the project. LJB’s updated design used a composite wall system that minimized both the concrete and steel needed for the wall panels. This more efficient design saved the contractor $400,000 in material costs.
