ABC Excellence in Construction Award
This project exemplifies the success of a large, multiple-wing, futuristic architectural vision. The result is an astonishing educational compound – or better yet – an eye-catching functional piece of art!
East Coast Metal Structures Corporation was subcontracted to complete the structural steel and miscellaneous metals drawings, fabrication, and erection for a new high school in Naples, Florida. Upon initial design analysis, it was clearly apparent this project would require special applications, intricate sequencing, and thousands of hours of focused ironworkers to ensure constructability and on-time completion. Coordination with other trades for schedule and task cross pollination was paramount.
We developed hundreds of fabrication and erection drawings, fabricated and delivered over 500,000 pounds of fabricated steel and specialized ornamental products. Requiring over 150 deliveries consisting of 22,500 miles, thousands of steel and aluminum pieces of material were meticulously staged for install. This project was completed on time, per schedule, with no inspection failures or safety violations/injuries. We are extremely proud of this accomplishment. Our effort was noted by our customer on several occasions and our safety efforts contributed to an AISC Safety Honor award for 2023!
