Chad Fisher Construction wins AGC of Washington's Construction Excellence Award for Janicki Industries Building 10 project.
The Janicki Industries Building 10 project is a testament to Chad Fisher Construction's commitment to excellence in engineering, design, and execution. Completed on time and within budget, the facility incorporates cutting-edge technologies and sustainable practices, setting a new benchmark for industrial construction.
Key Highlights of the Janicki Industries Building 10 Project:
- Facility Overview: Janicki Building 10 is a 188,000-square-foot aerospace manufacturing facility located in Hamilton, WA. Completed in just 18 months, the facility features 55-foot concrete tilt-up walls and a mass timber structure incorporating glulam beams, cross-laminated timber (CLT), and on-site fabricated timber trusses.
- Innovative Structural Design: The manufacturing portion of the facility includes concrete tilt-up walls with glue-laminated timber (glulam) columns supporting large glulam trusses spanning 80 to 102 feet. Glulam rails attached to the mass timber columns support massive overhead cranes essential for Janicki's manufacturing processes.
- Structural Engineering: Facet was the structural engineer for this 188,000-sf manufacturing and office building, one of the largest mass-timber projects in North America. The facility features massive wood columns supporting timber trusses spanning 80- and 100-foot bays, glu-laminated crane rails designed for multiple 10-ton cranes, a lateral system combining tilt-up concrete and mass-timber panels, and a 20,000-sf office space.
- Material Innovation: A switch from steel to mass timber, driven by pandemic-related supply delays, enabled faster construction while supporting sustainable forestry through Vaagen Timbers' operations.
- Climate Control Systems: Advanced climate control systems ensure optimal manufacturing conditions, with efficient heating, cooling, and ventilation tailored for composite fabrication.
- Client Recognition: Janicki praised Chad Fisher Construction for their innovative, flexible, and safety-focused approach, delivering a state-of-the-art facility on time and to the highest standards.
- Safety Commitment: Chad Fisher Construction has been a Safety Team member since 2015.
