Great questions but I figured the fun would be in posting the process as it goes and then getting the details as it progresses.

Happy to answer questions as it progresses but wanted to let the big picture develop over time.

[FlatNv]

[Orange Juice]

Is it on a taxiway?

I’ve been watching a huge “shed” going up at KDVT, on the south end.

Everybody’s getting ready for the Super Bowl next year.

Footings are dug. Steel and concrete for footings next week.

 

[Riverryder]

Wow the costing in this footings alone is going to be out of this world! I just had small footings pour and paid a bunch. Good job to you to be able to get a shed and office space like that!

 

[Dan Lorenze]

Looks like some high dollar Cactus around the property.

If you don’t take care of the workers, they don’t take care of you.

Don't forget the fire sprinkler riser needs to be stubbed in.

I thought they always cored them through the wall as they never have the plans approved at this point

Depends. Sometimes the UG plans are approved before the OH plans are approved. They have a 1 piece riser now with no fittings that goes under the footing. See link. We usually only go thru the wall on retro-fits or when there is a leak below the footing.

In-Building Risers (4" - 12")

Goes in tomorrow. 4 inch.

We have professionals on this…..

 

[Bobby V]

Goes in tomorrow. 4 inch.

4" I guess the building is smaller then it looks in the pictures on RDP. And you don't plan on storing very high. I would have figured at least 6". Do you know the cities static water pressure?

It’s just a shed.

No idea on the static water pressure but it was 20 months for approval so I suspect it has been well vetted.

The wall height is 35 feet. Ceiling height ranges from 31 to 29 feet other than the mezzanine with office.

Keep posting pictures. I love seeing new tilt ups being built.

Your slacking with the pics 530..

Just boring underground plumbing and electrical. Plus some discussion by architects and concrete people on exactly how the concrete wall finishes should look.

Waste slabs start early April.

 

[JUSTWANNARACE]

Is this in Korea?

Yep..4" ductile. They should put a sack or flange over it so no rocks gets inside. They will flush it at some point.

What are these staggered footings for. A large mezzanine?

Footings to anchor the tilt up while steel is being erected to tie it together.

Looking Great!

I’ve built many of those buildings!
brings back some good memories from when I was younger.

this is going to be so cool for you when it’s all done!

 

[Riverryder]

idk what im looking at but this looks so expensive!

Tilt up?

 

[Bobby V]

idk what im looking at but this looks so expensive!

They pour the concrete for the walls on the slab. Once cured they tilt the walls up using a crane and use pipe braces at a 45* to keep them upright. Once all the walls are up they will start installing the wood / metal roof trusses that ties into the walls. Then they will take the braces down. Then all the MEP trades start installing their conduit, pipes, duct work at the roof.

 

[530RL]

As Bobby states it is a slab they pour the 10 inch wall on. Once the walls are completed, cured and lifted in place they scrape up the slabs and off to the dump they go.

The wood pieces in the middle are openings in the walls. Next comes the rebar guys. Once all formed up and filled with steel they will hopefully be poured late next week with 485 yards of concrete.

My wife refers to this shed as my “final resting place”.

Let’s hope after I get it done.
