Design Build

Gropen

Gropen Charlottesville, VA This new 26,000 sf office and fabrication building combined the existing renovated building with a new pre-engineered building designed to have a crisp, modern motif. This joint project with Design Develop worked through multiple design and cost studies that ultimately presented the solution of two-story open office space and adjacent work area with a23-foot clearance required to construct Gropen’s large exterior signs. CCG is a Varco Pruden pre-engineered building authorized dealer, making it possible to execute this design.

Kents Store Fire Station

Kents Store Fire Station Kents Store, VA CMS designed this fire station in-house using conventional construction methods where the apparatus bay was masonry bearing with light gauge metal trusses, and the admin building was stick framed lumber. The main challenge of the project was that the station and the apparatus had to remain in service and in a conditioned space during the construction. Water in the equipment could not be in an unheated environment. Our design allowed the existing station to remain in place and operation, a requirement of the contract while constructing the new apparatus bay. We moved the apparatus, demolished the old station, and built the administration building on site. This solution saved the county $42,000.00 over the estimated cost of their intended design Similar Projects a.eg-henryharrison-element-1,a.eg-henryharrison-element-2{-webkit-transition:all .4s linear; -moz-transition:all .4s linear; -o-transition:all .4s linear; -ms-transition:all .4s linear; transition:all .4s linear}.eg-jimmy-carter-element-11 i:before{margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px}.eg-harding-element-17{letter-spacing:1px}.eg-harding-wrapper .esg-entry-media{overflow:hidden; box-sizing:border-box; -webkit-box-sizing:border-box; -moz-box-sizing:border-box; padding:30px 30px 0px 30px}.eg-harding-wrapper .esg-entry-media img{overflow:hidden; border-radius:50%; -webkit-border-radius:50%; -moz-border-radius:50%}.eg-ulysses-s-grant-wrapper .esg-entry-media{overflow:hidden; box-sizing:border-box; -webkit-box-sizing:border-box; -moz-box-sizing:border-box; padding:30px 30px 0px 30px}.eg-ulysses-s-grant-wrapper .esg-entry-media img{overflow:hidden; border-radius:50%; -webkit-border-radius:50%; -moz-border-radius:50%}.eg-richard-nixon-wrapper .esg-entry-media{overflow:hidden; box-sizing:border-box; -webkit-box-sizing:border-box; -moz-box-sizing:border-box; padding:30px 30px 0px 30px}.eg-richard-nixon-wrapper .esg-entry-media img{overflow:hidden; border-radius:50%; -webkit-border-radius:50%; -moz-border-radius:50%}.eg-herbert-hoover-wrapper .esg-entry-media img{filter:url("data:image/svg+xml;utf8,#grayscale"); filter:gray; -webkit-filter:grayscale(100%)}.eg-herbert-hoover-wrapper:hover .esg-entry-media img{filter:url("data:image/svg+xml;utf8,#grayscale"); -webkit-filter:grayscale(0%)}.eg-lyndon-johnson-wrapper .esg-entry-media img{filter:url("data:image/svg+xml;utf8,#grayscale"); filter:gray; -webkit-filter:grayscale(100%)}.eg-lyndon-johnson-wrapper:hover .esg-entry-media img{filter:url("data:image/svg+xml;utf8,#grayscale"); -webkit-filter:grayscale(0%)}.esg-overlay.eg-ronald-reagan-container{background:-moz-linear-gradient(top,rgba(0,0,0,0) 50%,rgba(0,0,0,0.83) 99%,rgba(0,0,0,0.85) 100%); background:-webkit-gradient(linear,left top,left bottom,color-stop(50%,rgba(0,0,0,0)),color-stop(99%,rgba(0,0,0,0.83)),color-stop(100%,rgba(0,0,0,0.85))); background:-webkit-linear-gradient(top,rgba(0,0,0,0) 50%,rgba(0,0,0,0.83) 99%,rgba(0,0,0,0.85) 100%); background:-o-linear-gradient(top,rgba(0,0,0,0) 50%,rgba(0,0,0,0.83) 99%,rgba(0,0,0,0.85) 100%); background:-ms-linear-gradient(top,rgba(0,0,0,0) 50%,rgba(0,0,0,0.83) 99%,rgba(0,0,0,0.85) 100%); background:linear-gradient(to bottom,rgba(0,0,0,0) 50%,rgba(0,0,0,0.83) 99%,rgba(0,0,0,0.85) 100%); filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient( startColorstr='#00000000',endColorstr='#d9000000',GradientType=0 )}.eg-georgebush-wrapper .esg-entry-cover{background:-moz-linear-gradient(top,rgba(0,0,0,0) 50%,rgba(0,0,0,0.83) 99%,rgba(0,0,0,0.85) 100%); background:-webkit-gradient(linear,left top,left bottom,color-stop(50%,rgba(0,0,0,0)),color-stop(99%,rgba(0,0,0,0.83)),color-stop(100%,rgba(0,0,0,0.85))); background:-webkit-linear-gradient(top,rgba(0,0,0,0) 50%,rgba(0,0,0,0.83) 99%,rgba(0,0,0,0.85) 100%); background:-o-linear-gradient(top,rgba(0,0,0,0) 50%,rgba(0,0,0,0.83) 99%,rgba(0,0,0,0.85) 100%); background:-ms-linear-gradient(top,rgba(0,0,0,0) 50%,rgba(0,0,0,0.83) 99%,rgba(0,0,0,0.85) 100%); background:linear-gradient(to bottom,rgba(0,0,0,0) 50%,rgba(0,0,0,0.83) 99%,rgba(0,0,0,0.85) 100%); filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient( startColorstr='#00000000',endColorstr='#d9000000',GradientType=0 [...]
