    Construction Features

    Built for Modern Logistics Operations

    Today’s warehouses need to support high-throughput operations, automation, and intensive racking. We build facilities with the clear heights, floor flatness, and infrastructure that modern logistics demand. 

    Clear Heights

    24' to 40'+ clear

    Floor Flatness

    FF/FL for VNA racking

    Power Capacity

    Heavy electrical for automation

    Column Spacing

    50' x 50' and larger

    Dock Doors

    Dock-high & grade level

    Fire Protection

    ESFR sprinkler systems

    Standard Warehouse Features

    Tilt-Up Concrete

    Panels cast on-site and tilted into place. Durable, fire-resistant, low maintenance. Ideal for 100,000+ SF facilities. Faster than conventional concrete, excellent for large distribution centers.

    Structural Steel

    Custom steel framing for maximum flexibility. Best for high clear heights (36'+), heavy crane loads, and complex configurations. Premium option for specialized facilities.

    Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings

    Factory-designed and fabricated systems. Cost-effective for smaller facilities (under 75,000 SF). Fast delivery, efficient for standard warehouse configurations.

    Construction Methods

    Tilt-Up, Steel & Pre-Engineered Buildings

    We select the right structural system for your project based on size, schedule, budget, and operational requirements. Each method offers distinct advantages for different warehouse applications.

    FAQ

    Warehouse Construction Questions

    How long does warehouse construction take?

    Warehouse construction timelines depend on building size and complexity. Small warehouses (25,000-50,000 SF) typically take 6-9 months. Mid-size distribution centers (50,000-150,000 SF) generally require 9-14 months. Large fulfillment centers (150,000+ SF) may take 12-18 months. Tilt-up construction can accelerate schedules compared to traditional steel. We provide detailed schedules during preconstruction that account for site conditions and tenant requirements.

    Warehouse construction costs in Georgia and Florida typically range from $65-$95 per square foot for basic spec warehouse shell buildings, $85-$125 per square foot for distribution centers with dock packages and office buildout, and $150-$250+ per square foot for cold storage and specialized facilities. Costs vary based on clear height, dock configuration, office ratio, site conditions, and tenant-specific requirements. We provide detailed cost breakdowns during preconstruction. 

    Yes, tilt-up concrete construction is one of the most cost-effective and durable methods for warehouse buildings. We have extensive experience with tilt-up panel design, casting, and erection. Tilt-up offers advantages including faster construction schedules, lower long-term maintenance, superior fire resistance, and excellent durability for industrial use. We also build pre-engineered metal buildings and structural steel warehouses depending on project requirements. 

    Absolutely. Cold storage construction requires specialized expertise including insulated metal panel systems (IMP), refrigeration system rough-in, vapor barriers, specialized flooring for freezer environments, and temperature-controlled loading docks. We build refrigerated warehouses, freezer facilities, blast freezers, and multi-temperature distribution centers. We work with refrigeration engineers and equipment suppliers to deliver fully functional cold chain facilities. 

    We build warehouses with clear heights ranging from 24 feet for smaller facilities up to 40+ feet for modern bulk distribution centers. Clear height affects racking capacity and is a key driver of building design. Higher clear heights require different structural systems, fire suppression (ESFR sprinklers), and lighting designs. We help clients determine optimal clear height based on their storage and operational requirements during preconstruction.
