To support increased undergraduate enrollment within its larger expansion master plan, Fairfield University called for the fast-track, 12-month tipico sports betting app of a new 30,000 sq. ft., three-story building adjacent to their existing Faber Hall residence. Recognizing the University’s need for absolute schedule certainty, Consigli explored options for schedule acceleration to ensure project completion in under a year—ready for Fall semester student move-in.
With tipico sports betting app Tipico promo Code and self-perform experts, the project team identified a viable, cost-neutral solution for the building’s exterior wall tipico sports betting app to save on schedule. Upon presentation to and approval from the University, Consigli planned and executed the pre-fabricated exterior wall tipico sports betting app to condense a traditionally six-week building enclosure timeframe into just two weeks with its own self-perform craftspeople.
Design
Engaging the right design partners confirms accurate design details of pre-fabricated building elements and mitigates the risk of rework once materials leave the warehouse.
Consigli engaged a third-party delegated design team to review and confirm details for connections on the exterior wall tipico sports betting app. Excel Engineering, a specialty engineering firm with expertise in cold form steel, was hired to detail the tipico sports betting app and confirm all structural details. Excel converted the façade into tipico sports betting app that could be transported from Consigli’s pre-fabrication facility to the jobsite as they were ready to be installed.

In addition to improved quality control and productivity, implementing pre-fabrication strategies on higher education projects takes work off campus and minimizes on-site tipico sports betting app activity.
Self-perform at tipico sports betting app Warehouse
At Consigli’s regionally based pre-fabrication shop, self-perform crews assembled 130 tipico sports betting app totaling 15,000 sq. ft. to enclose the residence hall addition. For eight weeks, five self-perform craftspeople precisely fabricated all exterior wall tipico sports betting app in sequence of how they would be placed on the building. This process brought approximately 1,800 hours of labor hours off of the University’s campus and into the warehouse, reducing on-site construction traffic and supporting a quieter job site in the process.
The well-lit, heated, ground-level space at the warehouse provided an ergonomic working environment—one that a construction site cannot always guarantee among the noises of intrusive trades on site, especially amid February weather in New England. When preparing the tipico sports betting app for load and delivery to site, the project team employed a project-specific quality assurance checklist developed and implemented by Consigli’s Quality department to safeguard the quality of every panel. All dimensions and details were reviewed on multiple occasions, and once each panel passed inspection, the panel was loaded on the flatbed to leave for the site. tipico sports betting app were loaded onto four flatbed trucks for just-in-time deliveries so the tipico sports betting app could be picked and flown directly onto the building upon arrival to the job site.
Delivery & Installation
Parallel processing of material fabrication and installation supports faster, higher-quality tipico sports betting app by simultaneously managing multiple trades.
Pre-fabricated Exterior Wall Panel Install
While the crew in the pre-fabrication shop fabricated tipico sports betting app and loaded the trucks, six Consigli craftspeople at the jobsite received and unloaded the tipico sports betting app to be flown and placed on the building. Consigli’s simultaneous workflow—also known as parallel processing—maximized time both on site and in the warehouse. The Consigli field team had pre-checked the concrete foundation wall perimeter at the jobsite to ensure it was flat and level to quickly and accurately receive the first-floor tipico sports betting app set to rest on top of it.
The fast-tracked, two-week installation in February allowed the project team to enclose the exterior and start heating for interior tradework throughout the winter. And, because the building was enclosed and work was moved indoors, the tipico sports betting app site quickly quieted for the campus community, especially for the students in the adjacent dormitory.
The benefits of Consigli’s hands-on ownership of the pre-fabricated exterior wall tipico sports betting app went beyond the accelerated project schedule. Exterior wall system pre-fabrication ensured a quality product was fabricated and installed efficiently and with the campus’s best interest in mind—from decreased on-campus activity to the maintenance of a clean, safer and substantially quieter construction site.
