Another of the highly respected
construction companies that The Conco Companies have been honored to work with
is Turner Construction. According to
their website, they have a reputation for “undertaking large, complex projects,
fostering innovation, embracing emerging technologies, and making a difference
for their clients, employees and community.” Turner is a North-American based company with
5,200 employees and has a record of completing $10 billion of construction on
1,500 projects each year.
One notable project we worked with
Turner on was the San Francisco 49ers new stadium. The 1.85 million square foot Levi's Stadium was
completed in 2014 and features 165 luxury suites, 9,000 club seats, an open
pedestrian plaza, community space, a 49ers team store, and a 49ers Hall of
Fame. The stadium is also used for a
number of other events including professional and college football, soccer,
motocross, concerts, and civic events.
During the construction of the
stadium, Conco constructed slabs in excess of 2,000,000 square feet and used
more than 65,000 cubic yards of concrete. As the project was on an ambitious timeline,
we worked in four separate areas simultaneously to complete the foundation and
used the same techniques for the many deck pours.
Another exciting project of Turner
Construction, and one that we are honored to be a part of, is the Wilshire
Grand Center in Los Angeles. Expected to
be complete in early March, the 73-story building will offer 20 floors of Class
A office (400,000 square feet) and 42 floors of four-star hospitality with 900
guestrooms. The 400,000 square feet of
podium includes ballrooms, meeting rooms, retail and below grade parking for
1,250 cars. The Wilshire Grand is the
tallest building west of the Mississippi and presented a series of challenges
that Conco and Turner have successfully met.
The Conco Companies are a leading
supplier of concrete services throughout the Western U.S. We got our start in the Bay Area in 1959 by
offering clients the best value on a wide range of concrete services and
