Rebuild-Process Installation

Project Summary

A specialist in the development and manufacturing of expanded polystyrene (EPS) insulation selected Robinson to perform as the design-build general contractor on a site restoration and rebuild project after a fire consumed six (6) of nine (9) buildings on their campus. Cleanup efforts began almost immediately. To keep the plant operational during the rebuild process, Robinson began fire damage demolition and site restoration work within one week following the fire. Atlas was able to resume 50 percent production within one month of beginning cleanup efforts and 100 percent production within 45 days. Robinson’s work for the rebuild portion of the project included design and construction of one (1) 93,220 sq ft pre-engineered metal building to replace the six (6) buildings that the fire destroyed. In addition to manufacturing space, the new facility also houses a shipping office, employee breakroom, and maintenance shop. In an effort to bring the entire campus up to current building code, Atlas made the decision to replace the two (2) buildings that were unharmed in the fire, with one (1) new 13,200 sq ft pre-engineered metal building.

In addition to the building work, Robinson was also contracted to install process piping systems and equipment including:

• Steam and Condensate
• Compressed Air
• Soft Water
• Vacuum Lines
• Natural Gas
• Twenty-one (21) different manufacturing equipment systems
