Aberdeen Center for Excellence

Description
Aberdeen Center for Excellence is a campus of 8 buildings constructed in Aberdeen, MD. The owner used Tompkins Turner Grunley Kinsley Joint Venture as a construction group to build this campus under a design build gross maximum price contract. Precast was chosen as an economical solution to clad the buildings and give a very pleasing look to the customer. Shockey Precast Group worked diligently with our customer on what would be the most cost efficient design that would come in under budget of the overall project.

Pre-Construction Services
The Shockey Precast Group was hired for this design-build project in 2007 consisting of approximately 376,000 square feet of architectural precast cladding on six office buildings.  Five of these six buildings were designed to have the exterior precast façade behave as the lateral force resisting system for the buildings.  This VE option saved the owner approximately $1,600,000.
