Integrating Office and Retail With Industrial Space
Many industrial facilities require office, customer-facing, or retail components integrated with the operational space. The Pape Kenworth project is a clear example: a warehouse and service building that also included integrated retail and office spaces. Constructing those mixed-use industrial facilities requires managing the transition between the industrial construction standards that apply to the operational space and the finish and systems requirements that apply to the office and retail portions.
Industrial Equipment Coordination
Industrial facilities often involve specialty equipment that has specific structural, utility, and access requirements. Rubicon coordinates with equipment vendors during the design and preconstruction phase to make sure the facility is built to accommodate the equipment correctly. The Pape Material Handling project included installation of an industrial vertical lift system, which required specific structural and utility coordination during construction.

Yes. Mixed-use industrial facilities that combine warehouse or service space with office and customer-facing areas are a project type Rubicon has experience with. The Pape Kenworth project included integrated retail and office spaces within a larger warehouse and service building. Managing the construction standards for both the industrial and the commercial portions of that type of facility requires experience with both, and Rubicon has built that type of project.
Yes. Rubicon coordinates with industrial equipment vendors during preconstruction to make sure the facility is designed and built to accommodate the equipment's structural, utility, and access requirements. The Pape Material Handling project included coordination and installation of an industrial vertical lift system. Equipment coordination during preconstruction prevents costly field modifications after the structure is in place.
