Mixed-Use Housing Facility and Collections HVAC Projects Moving Forward in Tandem
“The progress of the Mixed-Use Housing Facility is on track as per the established schedule. So far, all foundations have been successfully poured, under-slab utilities have been installed and inspected, and the north wing’s slab has been poured, using a substantial 140 yards of concrete—offering insight into the building’s considerable size.”
In the first week of March, our contractors identified a concerning development—the roof showed excessive flexing beyond acceptable tolerances due to the weight of the humidity control unit positioned on it. Currently, IAIA is collaborating with its architects, engineers, and general contractors to formulate a resolution to this issue. The project’s completion has been rescheduled to mid-summer 2024.
