Featured Projects

Design of the new Rocketship Delta Prep school in Antioch, CA focused on being a modern interpretation of the local Spanish mission elements, keeping in mind the goal to be a Net Zero Energy building. Key to achieving the goals of the design team were insulated metal panels from Metl-Span, which offer high R-value, recyclability and extensive color and embossing options.

Eye-catching insulated metal panels from Kingspan Insulated Panels—in Redwood, Dove Gray, Regal White and Evergreen—played a critical role in the design and construction of the new Rocketship Nashville Elementary School in Nashville, TN. But good looks were just one of the many benefits the panels brought to the project.

Once scattered throughtout an aging, three-story building that offered no potential for the growing practice, Rockford Cardiology Associates Ltd. of Rockford, IL, is now in a new home. In addition to having the latest amenities, the 53,000 sq. ft. building conveys an image of success and progressiveness, due in large measure to its design. P-G Architecture Design/Build skinned the building with a combination of glass and 19,000 sq. ft. of Dri-Design® wall panels in Silver Mica and Weathered Zinc Mica.

When the aging metal roof on the Rockland County, NY Sheriff's Department headquarters reached the end of its service life, county facilities management decided on a solution growing in popularity. Rather than tearing off the old roof and then installing a new one, they decided to leave the old roof alone and install a new metal roof right over the top. The system they chose was from Englert Inc., Perth Amboy, NJ.

M.G. McGrath showed its talents as both a fabricator and installer of metal construction products by virtue of its involvement in the building of the Rockpoint Church in Lake Elmo, MN. In addition to fabricating and installing the project’s aluminum composite wall panels, the Maplewood, MN, firm installed the project’s profiled metal wall panels, metal roof system, soffit panels and screen wall. The church was designed by BWBR Architects of St. Paul, MN, with the Eden Prairie, MN office of JE Dunn Construction handling the general contracting duties. It was completed in December 2007.

The new Rocksport Indoor Climbing Facility features gentle challenges for the beginner, plenty of moderate terrain for the weekend warrior, and fierce overhang climbing for the expert. For the new building's exterior, the design and construction team picked something every bit as all-encompassing – insulated metal wall panels from Metl-Span.

One step into his residential hangar and it’s easy to see that Harlan Rohner really values his leisure time. A quintessential man on the go, Rohner's Willmar, MN hangar includes snowmobiles, boats, ATVs and vehicles, along with his Kitfox experimental airplane and his Enstrom 280FX Shark helicopter. Access to this impressive array of toys is made easy with a custom hydraulic door from Schweiss Doors.

The roof re-cover at Roma High School in Roma, Texas, was a long time coming. Undertaken as part of a bigger project to solve a number of water intrusion issues, the school's original tile roof was replaced with more than 230,000 sq. ft. of metal roofing from McElroy Metal.

Ron Cleveland Construction Co. LLC, a Star Builder, wanted to show potential customers how versatile a custom metal building by Star Building Systems could be when constructing this office facility in Beaumont, Texas. The beautiful 11,526 sq. ft. office building houses Keller Williams Realty, as well as the construction company’s own headquarters. The facility was designed to withstand a 130 mph wind load.

The Ron De Lugo Federal Courthouse in the U.S. Virgin Islands underwent a major repair and replacement of its roof. The 57,872 sq. ft., three-story federal building is located just a stone’s throw from the ocean in a beautiful bay in St. Thomas. The corrosive saltwater environment was the major factor in specifying Petersen Aluminum panels for the retrofit.

Lemartec Engineering & Construction Corporation, a design-build and construction management firm and authorized builder for Varco Pruden Buildings, completed the expansion and enhancement of Ronald Reagan Equestrian Center at Tropical Park, a crown jewel of Miami recreational spaces.

Room In The Inn is a Nashville, TN-based non-profit that provides a variety of services to Nashville’s homeless community. The organization’s Campus for Human Development, originally constructed in 1986 with the goal of offering a variety of services to Nashville’s homeless population from a single location, recently added a new $13 million Comprehensive Center. This campus hub features architectural metal products from CENTRIA.

The new Rose E. Schneider Family YMCA in Cranberry Township, PA is truly state-of-the-art. Located on a 20-acre site, the 80,000 sq. ft. facility includes an indoor aquatics center with four pools, a fitness center, gymnasium, community rooms and a 12,000 sq. ft. wellness center. “The challenge was to design a building that illustrated the activities inside,” said Ralph Sterzinger, principal and project architect, Ross Schonder Sterzinger Cupcheck P.C., Wexford, PA. Featured on the exterior is 5,000 sq. ft. of Citadel Envelope 2000® metal composite panels.

When it comes to working buildings, it’s tough to beat the pre-engineered metal building approach to construction. Metal buildings go up quickly and economically, and offer the flexibility to meet even the most precise design requirements. The recently completed Rosedale Transport building in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada serves as prime example. The 40,000 sq. ft. project was completed in November 2011 after 10 months of construction, utilizing a metal building system and components from Robertson Building Systems.

How champion snowmobiler Frans Rosenquist got his start in farming back in the late 1970s is a bit unusual. How he came to rely exclusively on doors from Schweiss Doors for his farm's outbuildings is completely typical.

Construction of the new Rosenwald Recreation Center was a key component in the rebuilding of Council District B in New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Insulated metal panels from Metl-Span provide a durable and attractive aesthetic for the neighborhood.

With 20,000 sq. ft. under roof, the Ross Group Construction Corporation Headquarters in Tulsa, OK, features a custom metal building system by Star Building Systems. The custom metal building system—which measures 200’ wide x 100’ long x 16’ eave height—was chosen for its speed of construction and value of the structure relative to other construction alternatives, while achieving the same appearance and structural durability. Tilt-up concrete walls were used in conjunction with Star’s products.

An opportunity for design freedom allowed Cornerstone Architecture, Oklahoma City, to impress at Round 1 Bowling And Amusement in Taunton, Mass. With Flex-C Trac by Flex-Ability Concepts, the ceiling of the concourse entrance to the entertainment center was transformed into a fun and sophisticated art form.

Inspired by the uniforms worn by the first responders trained there, blue and gray metal panels from Dri-Design clad the new 65,000-square-foot Round Rock Public Safety Training Center in Round Rock, TX. The panels' long-lasting Sherwin-Williams Fluropon® paint finishes were applied to the metal in coil form prior to fabrication by Linetec.
