Scope of Work
- Cold-Formed Metal Framing (CFMF)
- Exterior Sheathing Systems
- Interior Metal Stud Framing
- Insulation
- Drywall Installation
- Level 4 & Level 5 Drywall Finishing
Our scope covers both structural and non-structural framing systems across the project, requiring precise coordination with architectural and structural design documents to ensure performance, alignment, and code compliance.
Technical Complexity
A key challenge of this project is the execution of high-performance structural and envelope systems across multiple building areas.
Our scope includes exterior cold-formed metal framing systems reaching heights of up to 45 feet, requiring:
- Advanced structural coordination
• Deflection control and engineered bracing
• Precise layout and alignment
• Integration with exterior sheathing and weather barrier systems
• Elevated safety planning and sequencing logistics
This level of execution demands detailed field coordination, experienced supervision, and strict compliance with design specifications.
Our Commitment
At Grupo Contreras, we are committed to delivering:
- High-quality workmanship
• Schedule-driven production
• Safety-focused field execution
• Seamless coordination with all trades
• Long-term performance and code compliance
The TCAT Elizabethton project reflects our ability to deliver technically demanding scopes on large institutional developments
