    FAQ

    Manufacturing & Flex Space Construction Questions

    How long does manufacturing facility construction take?

    Manufacturing facility construction timelines vary based on size and complexity. Small flex buildings (10,000-30,000 SF) typically take 6-9 months. Light manufacturing facilities (30,000-75,000 SF) generally require 9-14 months. Heavy manufacturing or specialized production plants may take 14-24+ months depending on process equipment, utility requirements, and regulatory approvals. Design-build delivery can accelerate timelines when production deadlines are critical. 

    Manufacturing facility construction costs in Georgia and Florida typically range from $85-$125 per square foot for flex and light industrial buildings, $125-$200 per square foot for light manufacturing with process utilities, $175-$300+ per square foot for specialized manufacturing with heavy power, cranes, and process infrastructure, and $250-$500+ per square foot for food-grade, pharmaceutical, or cleanroom facilities. Costs depend heavily on process requirements, utility demands, and regulatory compliance needs.

    Yes, we build manufacturing facilities with overhead crane systems including bridge cranes, jib cranes, and gantry systems. This involves designing structural steel to support crane loads, providing adequate clear heights for hook heights, installing crane runways and electrical systems, and coordinating with crane manufacturers. We handle everything from 5-ton light-duty cranes to 50+ ton heavy industrial systems for fabrication and assembly operations. 

    Flex space is versatile industrial building space designed to accommodate multiple uses including light manufacturing, assembly, warehouse, R&D labs, showrooms, and office functions. Typical flex buildings feature 16-24 foot clear heights, grade-level and dock-high doors, ample power, and office buildout potential from 10-50% of the space. Flex space is popular with businesses that need adaptable facilities for changing operational needs or mixed functions under one roof. 

    Yes, we construct food processing and manufacturing facilities designed to meet FDA, USDA, and SQF requirements. This includes food-safe finishes like epoxy floors and FRP wall panels, sanitary drainage systems, temperature-controlled environments, ingredient storage, process piping and utilities, washdown-rated electrical systems, and separation between raw and finished product areas. We work with food safety consultants to ensure facilities meet regulatory standards and third-party certification requirements.
