A Fast Track to Elegance
By all accounts, the total precast reconstruction of a 92-year-old beachside resort in Ponte Vedra, FL was a “home run.” The project required the complete system prefabrication and replacement of two 3-story buildings at Ponte Vedra Inn & Club, which took just nine weeks to complete.
The owner of the 1928, AAA Five Diamond-rated resort wanted the work completed prior to tourist season and to keep nearby facilities operational throughout construction. Total precast proved to be a viable and cost-saving solution, while seamlessly matching the resort’s existing design palette.
By choosing the versatile material for columns, elevator towers, stairs, framing, beams, walls and a complicated architectural precast exterior, the team accomplished multiple project goals at once. Perhaps total precast’s most appealing attribute was its savings in cost and time – the team completed the project four months early and saved some $700,000.
