Architect: Mayne Architecture
Mechanical Engineer: Farris Engineering
General Contractor: Hawkins Construction
Completion Date: August 2006
Bid Type: Plan and spec

Project Description

The Nebraska Machinery Company is a Nebraska based business that was founded in 1938 in North Platte. The original intention of the business was the sale of heavy equipment. In a series of expansions beginning in 1983 the company has grown into four divisions: The original heavy equipment division, engine repair division, a lift truck division, and a rental services division catering to the needs of construction contractors statewide.

The Nebraska Machinery project was a perfect example of the critical importance of scheduling and coordination in the construction industry. To complete the construction of the 45,300 square foot facility in 135 business days an aggressive schedule was developed. During the project over 15,720 feet of sanitary, domestic, hydronic and process piping and associated equipment was installed by our workforce. Midland’s crews worked simultaneously onsite and in our fabrication shop to prefabricate every possible piping and hanger assembly in order to meet the construction deadline. The 7,440 man-hours of work accomplished within the strict deadline of this project was performed with zero OSHA recordable accidents.

International Quilt Studies Center - Lincoln, NE

Project Team and Statistics:

Architect: Poyner Architecture
Mechanical Engineer: Alvine Engineering, Inc.
General Contractor: Hawkins Construction
Completion Date: January 2008
Bid Type: Plan and spec

Project Description

The International Quilt Studies Center was founded in 1997 after the University of Nebraska- Lincoln received a donation of over nine-hundred and fifty quilts. Before moving to its new state-of-the-art three-story, 37,000 square foot facility containing public viewing galleries, classroom and meeting spaces, a museum shop, conservation and research laboratory, virtual quilt gallery and a climate controlled storage area, the Center was located in a limited converted space of the Home Economics Building on East Campus. With the construction of the first “sustainable” green facility constructed on the UNL campus, the collection of quilts has grown to over two thousand three-hundred, with quilts from 24 different countries. The International Quilt Studies Center has also spawned a graduate program in textile history. This program is the only one of its kind in the world and encourages the study and appreciation of quilts as both aesthetic objects and as cultural artifacts whose beauty has significant importance to social and economic history.

To complete the construction of the 37,000 square foot facility an aggressive schedule was developed. During the project over 17,020 feet of sanitary, storm, domestic, and hydronic piping and associated equipment was installed by our workforce. Midland’s crews worked simultaneously onsite and in our fabrication shop to prefabricate every possible piping and hanger assembly in order to meet the construction deadline.
