Denver Union Station
Denver, CO, United States
Project Featured on Dec 05, 2014
THE CHALLENGE – complex project with a large design-engineer-build team
Union Station in the City of Denver, which dates back to 1881, has been undergoing a massive $500 million renovation since 2009. The station has added a new commuter rail, Amtrak, light rail and bus terminals, 1.35 million square feet of mixed-use development, and new civic spaces. The station is a very important part of Denver’s vibrant urban core.
The scope of work was large, comprising 8 different structures. Structurflex joined the project to design and deliver a vast membrane roof for the train hall structure and canopies for waiting and drop-off areas. Structurflex specialists were part of a large team that included world-class architects SOM, engineers, contractors, steel fabricators, steel erectors, and other trades.
Challenges faced include a large amount of design development and coordination, engineering, intricate detailing coordination, fabrication schedules, and installation while other trades were working in the same area.
THE SOLUTION – constant communication and coordination with all team members.
Recognising that constant coordination with all parties was necessary to achieve problem-free progress, the Structurflex team attended many meetings, conference calls, and web conferences. Structurflex also maintained direct lines of communication with the engineer, architect, general contractor, steel fabricator, and steel erector. During the project, Structurflex’s ability to work within a team and stay on top of every facet of execution has been highly praised by other team members.
