Project Overview

The Aberdeen Center for Excellence campus consists of eight buildings constructed under a design-build gross maximum price contract. Precast was chosen as an economical solution to clad the buildings and to meet the owner’s aesthetic vision for the campus. The Shockey Precast Group was selected for the design-build contract, and provided 376,000 SF of architectural cladding for six office buildings. Five of these six buildings were designed to have the exterior precast façade behave as the lateral force-resisting system for the buildings, resulting in significant cost savings for the owner.

"The precast concrete design was able to meet the stringent performance requirements of the structure while providing an aesthetically pleasing, sustainable final product at an affordable price point."

"Metromont’s team embraced our idea and got their whole team on board. It’s one thing for sales managers to want to make architects happy, but to have the plant manager, the finishing crew foreman and engineers fully engaged is something else. Metromont was extremely cooperative – the project was a win-win for everyone.”
