  • Margaret Carpenter Recreation Center | Pinkard Construction | Colorado

    Margaret Carpenter Recreation Center Thornton, CO, USA City of Thornton 11,837 Sq. Ft. Public Projects, Recreation, Indoor Pool, Renovation, Ground Up The completed facility includes a new six-lane lap pool with an adjacent aqua-exercise pool, a wave pool with a lazy river and bubble pit, an activity pool with zero-depth entry, a play structure, geysers, and sprays, a water slide, and a 20-person therapeutic hydro-jet spa. The universal locker room expansion better serves families and individuals with special needs, increasing accessibility for all. The recreation center remained open to the public throughout construction. To ensure guest and staff safety and minimize impacts on daily operations, Pinkard implemented exceptional safety and operational protocols. The team took great pains identifying, procuring and storing long lead items well in advance. Items that arrived early were typically stored either onsite or at company warehouses, greatly mitigating most COVID-related delays. Pinkard's strong relationships with the best pool contractors in Colorado allowed us to work with the best value-added contractors in the business. In addition to our punch list requirements, our pool contractor employed a custom punch list that covered the extensive tile, formwork, and rebar. We meticulously reviewed our punch expectations with the entire team before pouring concrete and leading into rebar inspections. With 30 tons of rebar in the lap pool alone, this attention to detail ensured that Thornton would have the best concrete pours possible. Pinkard also enlisted the skills of one of the best pool tile contractors in the business. This subcontractor had teamed with our pool contractor for more than 17 years. Their skill, team chemistry, and collaboration ensured that all the laser-leveled tile was within a very tight 1/16th inch.

  • Porcelain Brick Quality Challenges

    Porcelain Brick Quality Challenges 2022-03-14 Share Share On the Moorhead Recreation Center project, one of our biggest quality challenges was constructing the intricate, custom foliage patterning with the exterior porcelain brick. The brick is beautiful, but it tends to be very fragile. BRS's design came with an exact template showing where every brick should go. The challenge was to get the patterning exactly correct and not damage it. Ensuring Quality Brick Installation. To get the brick just right, JVS Masonry created half-scale mock-ups of a brick wall section, colored and numbered each brick location, then constructed the mock-ups under the watchful eyes of Pinkard, the City, and BRS. Once everyone agreed that the correct construction and quality approaches were understood and mastered, crews went to work on the real thing. In preparation for construction, JVS once again plotted the location and color of each brick. During construction, five different individuals took turns inspecting the installation every two hours. This result was near perfection. Everything line-up perfectly. Project Architect Jesse Sherr: “I think those guys did a great job with the porcelain brick. That material is probably one of the most challenging tasks and some of the best installed on that whole project.” As construction progressed under a very tight schedule, the team continued to face one demanding quality challenge after another. Construction Manager Blake Chambliss: “Pinkard had a tremendous number of quality/fit and finish responsibilities. We were working on a fast-paced schedule and at every turn, we encountered challenging details. The multi-purpose room ceiling clouds were a great example.” Learn More Recreation Construction See Projects Moorhead Recreation Center Learn More Share This Story Share Share More News Sort By Topic Reset Project Rewind: Assuming Risk to Meet Deadlines at Denver's Central Platte Campus 2024-04-22 Learn More Pinkard Tops Out $80,000,000 Willoughby Corner in Boulder County 2024-04-10 Learn More Pinkard Commences Village on Main Affordable Senior Apartments Rehabilitation 2024-04-19 Learn More Pinkard Completes Preconstruction Phase of Buffalo Run Golf Course Clubhouse Expansion 2024-04-03 Learn More Load More Our Approach Partner, Plan, BUILD.

  • How to Avoid the Key Pitfalls in Multifamily Wood Framing

    How to Avoid the Key Pitfalls in Multifamily Wood Framing 2024-01-10 Share Share Wood framing is a critical multifamily construction scope requiring attention and expertise. However, it can also be risky, causing quality issues and schedule delays if not appropriately managed. This is why Pinkard Construction has launched a new framing division, Pinkard Frameworks , to address these challenges. Recently, Pinkard President Tony Burke and Pinkard Frameworks Manager Dan Harris sat down to discuss the problem with wood framing and the solutions Pinkard can offer. In this division, professionals with in-depth framing knowledge work closely with the design team and key suppliers to ensure framing designs meet architectural and structural intent, constructability, and seamless integration with other trades. Pinkard Frameworks has dedicated framing professionals who can lead subcontractors and interface with the project superintendent to catch minor issues before they become significant problems. Ultimately, taking ownership and responsibility for the wood framing process is the key to success in commercial multifamily construction. Q: Wood framing is said to be one of the riskiest scopes in commercial construction. What makes it so risky? Tony Burke: Wood framing is a unique process that requires a lot of attention and expertise. If not managed properly, it can cause problems that cascade into other trades, leading to quality issues and schedule delays. This is what makes our new framing division so important; our clients, developer partners, design professionals and fellow general contractors can benefit from partnering with such a dedicated and specialized team. Dan Harris: Another potential issue is that very few wood framing subcontractors can be bonded. This is proof that the process is risky and requires someone to take ownership. That is why I am so happy to be a part of this new division, Pinkard Frameworks. Q: What is the solution to these problems? Tony Burke: The solution is to take ownership of the wood framing process. This means involving a general contractor with in-depth framing knowledge and their key suppliers, especially truss fabricators, with the design team. This collaboration results in framing designs that meet architectural and structural intent, ensure constructability, and seamless integration with other trades. Dan Harris: A critical aspect of this is cultivating relationships with vendors and holding them to project specifications. This approach ensures quality and saves owners money. Q: Can you give an example of how this approach has worked in the past? Tony Burke: Pinkard’s recent efforts on Krisana Affordable Housing created a framing design that saved the owner over $250,000. Dan Harris: Another example is Pinkard’s recent preconstruction efforts for Boulder County Housing Authority’s project, Willoughby Corner. The initial design was a unique, modern design that required complex engineering. We took the time to work with the design team to understand the factors driving the design decisions. We developed more economical solutions without sacrificing the overall look of the building. Q: What role does on-site supervision play in ensuring successful wood framing? Dan Harris: Experienced and attentive on-site supervision is crucial. A dedicated framing professional who leads the Framing Subcontractor and interfaces directly with the project superintendent can catch minor issues before they become major problems. This level of supervision ensures the project stays on track and all team members are held accountable for their work. Tony Burke: On-site framing supervisors must have the knowledge and authority to make quick decisions and adjustments, saving time and money. Q: In summary, what is the key to success in wood framing? Tony Burke: Having a team who not only understands the wood framing process start to finish but also takes ownership and responsibility for its success is essential for ensuring that your wood frame project is delivered smoothly on schedule, competitively priced and is a quality build that will last you decades. Q: Finally, can you tell us more about Pinkard Frameworks? Tony Burke: It’s a wood framing division of Pinkard Construction that will serve as a trade partner to developers and general contractors along the Colorado front range. We are thrilled to have Dan as our new Wood Frame Manager. His 40 years of experience have really let this division hit the ground running. Dan Harris: We will continue to self-perform wood framing for Pinkard projects, but other projects will be supported by Pinkard’s Self-Performance Department, including our team of superintendents, carpenters and foremen.

  • Carraway on Penn | Pinkard Construction | Colorado

    Carraway on Penn Denver, Colorado, USA Confluent Development 34,619 Sq. Ft., 42 Units Market Rate, Multi-Family Housing, Wood Framed, Masonry, Structural Steel Superstructure, Ground Up The project involved the development of a .3-acre site, which was transformed into a modern, state-of-the-art multifamily residential property. The development was approximately 34,619 square feet of living space, with a total of 42 residential units, providing ample space for residents to live comfortably. The property also featured amenity space, which added to the convenience and comfort of the residents, as well as onsite covered parking, which was a much-welcomed addition for the residents. According to Matt Chiodini, Associate Principal at OZ Architecture, the complex site geometry, which was in the shape of a triangle, served as the inspiration for the team to pay special attention to key corners and show restraint along the street edges. The sensitivity to building entries and window openings led to a unique asset that provided much-needed housing in the heart of South Pearl district. The team's goal with Carraway on Penn was to complement the historical components of the neighborhood while providing a thoughtful, modern living experience that delivered lasting value.

We assigned a qualified foreman for each pod, which allowed us to maintain production and communicate QC fixes easier and quicker." See the Project Couldn't Have Been Happier With Precon "I couldn't have been happier having Pinkard on board to help us through that preconstruction process. Our project (Vida at Sloan’s Lake) took so long to get all the financing partners secured, it pushed us out almost a year, but Pinkard held their pricing. It really was kind of a cool way to do what felt like a design-build approach (under a CMaR contract). It's good to have a contractor helping us figure out what structural systems and even down to the nitty-gritty of how to do different slabs and soundproofing."

  • Colorado Wood Framing Specialists

    Colorado Wood Framing Specialists Pinkard Frameworks aims to modernize the wood framing industry by offering detailed project assessments, identifying value-adds, and ensuring on-site supervision of the wood framing process. Our team takes ownership of the wood frame scope through collaboration with contractors, architects, engineers, suppliers, and subcontractors. This holistic approach ensures critical elements work with all trades that rely on structural framing, saving time and money. Learn More Why Pinkard Frameworks? The Problem There is no incentive for subcontractors to take ownership of the wood framing process. This causes schedule and quality issues that affect other trades. Our Solution Pinkard Frameworks provides preliminary truss design, in-house estimating, and shop drawing reviews to prevent conflicts and cascading issues that stop construction progress for redesigns. On-Site Supervision Our on-site framing superintendent is briefed throughout the design process and is a trained, experienced carpenter who manages all material and labor to the contract intent. A Holistic Approach Collaborating with truss fabricators in preconstruction is essential to achieve framing designs that meet architectural and structural intent, ensuring constructability, seamless integration with other trades, and a budget-friendly, faster, and higher-quality project.
