Architect and Builder Agreements on Precast Concrete Foundations
Teams of building industry professionals are working together to create an affordable housing project in Franklin Lakes, N.J. for people with physical and developmental disabilities. Constructed of modular components situated on durable precast concrete panel foundations, the apartments and central community building are scheduled to open in August 2018.
Five two-story buildings will house 40 special needs apartments when the project is complete. According to architect Stephen L. Schoch, cost-effective and time-saving Xi Wall panels made the most sense to serve as the foundations for the structures.
