Project Update Right on Track!
Construction has been progressing very nicely since the project started on June 6th. Within the first two weeks we completed demolition and started the underground plumbing. We have completed the underground work and are about 85% complete with the interior studs. All the trade contractors have performed extremely well thus far. It is exciting to see the progress!

A term you might hear on our site but may not be familiar with is PPE, which stands for Personal Protective Equipment. Examples of PPE include items such as gloves, high visibility clothing, foot and eye protection, protective hearing devices, and hard hats. Some of these items, like hard hats and eye protection, are required 100% of the time on-site, while others, like gloves, are required only when performing certain tasks. Elzinga & Volkers exceeds MiOSHA standards when it comes to PPE to ensure that all of our workers return home safe every day.

The Look Ahead
Now that the majority of the walls are constructed, it’s time to start roughing them in with plumbing and electrical. We will also be working on installing HVAC and Fire Suppression. The steel crew will be on site shortly to reinforce the existing structure, frame out for the new RTU’s and placing the new supports for the freezer condensers. The mason will be working on the new storefront structure so the building will be secure, as drywall is right around the corner.
You can expect the following upcoming work: » Electrical rough-in » Plumbing rough-in » Steel reinforcing » Storefront CMU and brick » Drywall
