Concrete Seismic Retrofitting Services in Los Angeles

Since the passage of Ordinance 183893 in 2015, the City of Los Angeles has been busy identifying non-ductile concrete buildings that require seismic retrofitting to come up code.  Along with all of the other concrete services we provide, The Conco Companies is providing professional seismic retrofitting for pre-1978 non-ductile concrete buildings in L.A. 

Topnotch Concrete Solutions for the Denver Area

The Conco Companies are proud to bring premium concrete services to Colorado’s Front Range.  Services include high-quality concrete formwork, reinforcement, finishing, and shotcrete.  We also offer the Denver area design/build, turnkey and G.C. services that provide customers the opportunity to not only work with some of the top professionals in the field but to do so at a great value. 

Right from the planning stages, Conco partners with owners and contractors to ensure each project gets off to a great start.  For Conco formwork, our team takes into account project specifications, requirements and budget and uses up-to-the-date technology including BIM to determine the best type of material to use to construct the forms.  We make forms out of a variety of materials including plywood and steel as well as custom-made plastic and fiberglass.  In addition we offer professional concrete drawing services for walls, columns, beams and slab soffits.

As we own and operate two large, rebar fabrication facilities, Conco is equipped to be a single source for all of your reinforcement and installation needs.  Our high-performance, precision-engineered rebar is fabricated in state-of-the-art plants equipped with modern shear lines, benders and post-tension cable manufacturing equipment.  In addition our finishing teams are some of the most experienced in the field and bring to each project Conco’s standard of excellence. 

Our shotcrete services offer an economical solution for many projects and we are experienced in the most advanced methods of application.  The technique almost eliminates the forming process all together reducing both labor costs and time.  Shotcrete is used in place of traditional cast-in-place shear walls, retaining walls, architectural walls, slope pavement, and soil nailing.

One project we recently completed was the luxurious high-rise apartment building, the Platform, which is part of the Union Station redevelopment project in Downtown Denver.  The 21-story skyscraper includes 288 apartment units and 260 parking spaces as well as 7,000 square feet of retail space.

The Conco Companies mission is to be the best supplier of concrete services in Western US and bring expertise, experience and quality to each project. Conco’s portfolio includes public works projects, commercial, educational, healthcare, parking structures and other construction development.
