Expanding shipping and warehousing facilities to support Charlotte Pipe’s growing Plastics Division

Through a design-build partnership, Barringer and WGM Design completed this 123,200 square foot expansion to Charlotte Pipe & Foundry’s existing 160,000 square foot warehouse for their growing Plastics Division. The new building addition is constructed with tilt-up concrete walls and a steel structure to match the existing building and houses new dock areas, truck court, and a unisex restroom. New fire lines, resurfacing of the loading dock parking lot, and replacement of the existing roof were also executed within the scope of work.

Barringer and WGM Design are no strangers to each other, having completed 10+ projects together.

Early design and construction coordination

Due to the extensive, multi-step process that accompanies tilt-up concrete construction, our team developed a strategy early on to ensure the project’s success. By establishing a collaborative and communicative partnership early on, our team was able to release the steel, roofing, and loading dock equipment contractors early in the design process to combat increasing material lead times and accommodate the accelerated schedule.
