Pinkard Rises to Any Pool Construction Challenge Pinkard Rises to Any Pool Construction Challenge 2024-01-17 Share Share Pinkard Construction’s team has undeniable expertise in pool construction. They have successfully built over 50 recreation centers and 60 indoor and outdoor pools , overcoming significant challenges. The team has a proven track record of success, from controlling costs to engaging with the community. The project team faces three primary challenges/opportunities during the preconstruction process: cost control, escalation, and procurement. The team must balance the client's wants and needs with the budget, providing real-time pricing to enable the client to make informed decisions. Pinkard relies on its vast subcontractor pool to obtain the most accurate and competitive pricing possible. They engage with multiple trade partners early, who provide critical input on materials and options for flexibility in cost control. Another challenge is pricing multiple design iterations for months before locking down final costs. The project team interprets materials markets and provides accurate future cost estimates. Their close relationships with major suppliers allow them to stay updated on pricing trends, which benefits the client's budget. Additionally, new material delays are showing up almost daily, but the team constantly monitors these situations and can suggest more readily available alternatives. Pinkard's Pool specialists have a Pool Facility Checklist for a well-designed pool. The checklist covers considerations like circulation, filtration, decking, finishes, HVAC, and safety. It's used to provide our clients with early and accurate pricing. When constructing the pool, the team pays close attention to the pool shell, ensuring the quality of the subgrade prep, concrete supporting structures, accessibility of pipe routing, and pool deck construction. For indoor pools, they vet and confirm critical details regarding the pool enclosure's ability to resist corrosion and the quality control of specialty paints and coatings that seal sensitive surfaces. Pinkard also has the experience and knowledge needed to coordinate and install the required mechanical and pool equipment, such as pumps, filters, dehumidification systems, and specialty equipment like wave generators. Commissioning is another critical stage in pool construction, and the team anticipates the need to meet strict testing and performance standards for the facility. Pinkard commits to providing ample manpower promptly to ensure this process goes as smoothly as possible. On the Bison Ridge Recreation Center, Pinkard identified potential complications involving the adjacent property grading and used a more effective structural infill, saving the City $950,000 during preconstruction. Bison Ridge Recreation Center Most of the recreation and pool facilities Pinkard works on are occupied during renovation. Safety and security are critical to ensure the staff and community can continue using the facility. To account for who is on-site at what times, the team ensures deliveries on time and requires construction crew badging and background checks. The team also carefully considers public access points and areas during construction and maintains physical and visual separation between the public and the construction work. Pinkard's recent Margaret Carpenter Recreation Center Renovation 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 facility remained open to the public throughout construction, and Pinkard used safety and operational protocols to ensure guest and staff safety while minimizing impacts on daily operations. Additionally, Pinkard always keeps the local community informed and excited about their projects. At Moorhead Recreation Center for the City of Aurora, the team held hard hat tours of the job site to keep the excitement high and helped organize a "job fair" for local children to see the finished product and to allow our team to discuss our experience building the project. This event provided inspiration and information on how to get into this industry. The Pinkard recreation construction team’s expertise in pool construction developed over many years and many successful projects. From preconstruction to commissioning, they easily navigate the challenges of cost control, procurement, and escalation. Their attention to detail and commitment to community outreach and neighborhood involvement sets them apart from other contractors.

Pinkard Frameworks Promotes Russell Hardcastle Pinkard Frameworks Promotes Russell Hardcastle 2025-01-29 Share Share Longtime Pinkard employee Russell Hardcastle has been promoted to the new position of Framing Engineer for Pinkard Frameworks. Pinkard Frameworks, the in-house wood-framing division of Pinkard Construction, created this new role specifically for Russell to take advantage of his unique skillset that enables him to translate his years of field construction experience into a BIM and clash detection-related engineering specialist. In his new role, Russ manages virtual construction and clash detection on every Frameworks project, scrupulously analyzing constructability details. This includes creating 2D and 3D framing layouts that give Frameworks the ability to confirm architectural and structural intent and then design custom framing packages that are identical to what a wall panel supplier would do. It also gives Pinkard Frameworks the ability to design custom framing packages that can also include wall panelization, with the flexibility to either self-construct wall panels or contract the work to a panel fabricator. Russ also checks dimensions, compiles quantities for procurement, identify gaps, omissions, duplicates, and clashes, all with the mission of setting up the construction team to have the most efficient construction process possible. Wood Framing Manager Dan Harris: “A lot of guys can understand framing when they are seeing it right in front of them, but Russ can sit in front of his computer and switch between three dimensions and two dimensions without losing a beat. He can visualize complexities within the structure, put them into context, and display them in a way that design teams and framing crews can understand. Russ’ skillset is truly the Holy Grail of construction.” This diligence pays off regularly. One recent wood framed project was specified to be hemlock/fir construction, but one drawing page stated a requirement for part of the structure to be Douglas fir. Russ was able to modify his BIM model to properly replace more than 3,000 hemlock/fir studs with all Douglas fir prior to construction. These critically important preconstruction steps benefit owners with a more efficient construction process that maximizes efficiency while reducing waste and time lost for tear-outs and re-builds. While it is common for a contractor to provide BIM services/clash detection for major mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems, BIM services like those provided by Frameworks are relatively rare in the wood-framing world. With more than 20 years in construction, Russ’ career has featured a strong focus on multi-family wood framing, custom woodworking, and hospitality construction. He joined Pinkard in 2015, where he quickly became a standout employee. As a result of his construction common sense and strong field performance, he was able to skip three years of a four-year journeyman carpenter apprentice program at the Construction Industry Training Council. He completed Associated General Contractors’ superintendent/ project manager apprenticeship program in December 2024. Russ joined Frameworks in the summer of 2023, rising to the role of Framing Superintendent prior to his current position as Framing Engineer. Russ’ new role greatly enhances Frameworks’ mission to provide industry-best preconstruction services for Pinkard’s wood frame clients. Pinkard formed its Frameworks division in 2023 to fill a much-needed gap in the wood framing industry. Frameworks’ services focus on best preconstruction practices to eliminate the waste and delays associated with traditional wood framing construction practices. Frameworks’ professional in-depth preconstruction practices allow skilled wood framing crews to work at optimum efficiency from day one to provide our clients with optimum value for the construction budgets.

Pinkard Announces New Wood Framing Department, Makes Key Hires Pinkard Announces New Wood Framing Department, Makes Key Hires 2023-08-18 Share Share Pinkard Construction is proud to announce the launch of its new Wood Framing Department, headed by Wood Framing Manager Dan Harris. Harris is a recent addition to Pinkard and has over 40 years of experience in construction. He brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to this new department. The Wood Framing Department has been established to provide in-house control of the framing process, ensuring critical elements work with all trades that rely on structural framing while prioritizing budget, safety, quality, and schedule for overall success. The department has already made its first key hire, Project Engineer Alexandra Caballero, who will assist Dan. Alexandra has four years of experience in construction and a BS from the University of South Florida. "Our clients need to know that we have skin in the game and have planned for our projects’ complete success. The Wood Framing Department is an essential part of that," said Tony Burke, President of Pinkard Construction. "Framing is essential to the critical path and we are not outsourcing our framing to an unrelated contractor who is not invested in the overall project outcome. We are in complete control of the labor, equipment, supervision, and materials. We bear the responsibility of purchasing and ensuring overall success." The Wood Frame Department is expanding and hiring new staff and the department will have access to the resources of the company's Self-Performance Department, including 22 superintendents, carpenters, foremen, and other full-time construction laborers. "Our services include comprehensive hold-down layout plans, in-house surveys, detailed framing scopes, confirmed rough openings, unit plan markups, and precise lumber usage notes. This guarantees that the work is executed correctly and efficiently, delivering unparalleled value," said Dan Harris. "Our framing superintendent, who is an experienced carpenter, is continuously updated throughout the design process. He is responsible for overseeing all material and labor to ensure that they conform to the contract's specifications." Harris says that the department is expected to grow and is in the process of hiring more qualified individuals that can help him offer Pinkard's clients, both old and new, a value-added service that will streamline the construction process.

The great finish we enjoyed is a credit to Ensign, Pinkard, and Intergroup Architects’ strong commitment to team-building...it saved this project. Sloan’s Lake and Ensign are very proud of what this team was able to accomplish, and this facility is already making a difference in our patients’ lives.” See The Project Pleased with Pinkard's partnering "I was very pleased with Pinkard’s partnering. If we had issues with quality or schedule Pinkard would drop what they were doing to meet with me. Even with the hard conversations they were right there ready to go with detailed answers and explanations and options for solutions. Always professional conversations." See the Project Financial options "...our financially starved project required a lot of compromise. Rick gave us three or four options for virtually every line item, just so we could think about them.... Pinkard enabled us to save the soul of our building."
