Alpha & Omega Group provided structural engineering services for the industrial plant expansion at the PGI plant in North Little Rock, Arkansas. The project was a fast-tract, design-build project requiring structural design to be performed on-site during construction of the project.
An existing warehouse facility was gutted and two new process lines were installed. The work involved the removal of many existing columns thus requiring the installation of temporary shoring. New columns were installed at larger spacing to allow for the installation of new heavy foundations. A ninety-six foot double beam and two columns were installed to allow four wall columns to be removed. One section of the roof was raised to accommodate new equipment.
