Camino Al Norte Business Center
2006 Tilt-Up Achievement Award Winner :: Office Division
Submitted by: JD Construction, Inc
The Camino Al Norte Business Center is a two-story 49,000 square foot office complex featuring an innovative design for which concrete was more suitable than other forms of construction.
Step-down wing walls, 20-inches thick, create attractive detail and accent the terrace patios on the five-sided building. The concrete radius entry with individual panels that reach 35-feet in height are enhanced by curtain wall glass construction as a backdrop and create an impressive visual impact.
With the goal of providing a high-quality commercial development for the city of North Las Vegas, the facility offers two-inch beveled reveals, decorative caps, radius patio areas and front entries. The pop-outs create a striking visual effect for the facility.
Tilt-Up was selected for this project because the method could provide the architectural capabilities the owner wanted.
One of the greatest challenges was the width and total overall weight of the panels, but the uncompromised attention to detail on this building has gained the attention of city officials, local developers, and design team professionals across the country.
This building exemplifies the concept of design and the execution of expert craftsmanship.
