SERV Ministries Internation Second Annual Sporting Clay Fundraiser - 10.13.08

Harcon has been working with SERV Ministries International to help raise money for children in Mexico.  The mission of SERV Ministries Internation has always been to "serve God by serving others".  However, the initial vision, one that has developed and become a reality in recent years, was to particularly focus on children.

Harcon is hosting a Sporting Clay Fundraiser on Friday, November 14th at Cherokee Rose Sporting Resort in Griffin, GA.  If you are interested in becoming a sponsor or would like to make a donation please click the attachment below.  This is a great opportunity for networking or taking a client out for the day and at the same time helping children in need.  For more information on SERV Ministries Internation please visit http://servintl.homestead.com/index.html

The Rhythm @ Music Row - 10.06.08

Modern Contractor Solutions The Rhythm @ Music Row Harcon was featured in the September 2008 Modern Contractor Solutions Magazine. The Rhythm @ Music Row, is a downtown condominium complex in Nashville, TN. The building’s unique design features a parking garage on the first five levels, above the retail stores, with a 10-story, 110-unit housing complex set back on the roof of the parking garage.

To help build the structure as quickly as possible, Harcon used 15,000 square feet of tables and in-fill of a Doka Table Lifting System (TLS), and shifting trolleys for quick cycling of the tables. For the ramps in the parking deck, the builder used stick building, a common method for that type of project. There was little room in and around the jobsite to store materials.

The site was just 9 inches away from an Enterprise Rent-a-Car; the workers could literally reach out and touch that building. On another side, the site was 10 feet off the busy Demumbreun St., and there was a parking area for a business on another side. There was an alley that ran right beside the building in the back of the site. “This was one of the tightest jobs I’ve ever been on in my life,” say Bobby Kay, project superintendent. They had just enough room to back an 18-wheeler in on Demumbreun St. They set the crane up there to go straight up, and they had to schedule every truck so that it could go directly into the building – there was no lay-down area. “Being tight is one thing, but when you’re working above businesses that are open, that’s the hard part,” notes Kay. “You can’t lose anything off the building.” If you would like to read more on this article, please visit this link to read full article.
