ARC Construction Services provided Turner Construction with a fair and honest assessment of the scope of work needed and worked with them to come up with a revised budget that balanced budget constraints with the amount of work that was initially needed.

ARC was able to install firestop systems through all penetrations and top-of-wall applications, even in extremely tight access areas where there was little room to work. By having appropriate worker capacity and firestop knowledge, the tight deadline was able to be met. (ARC has been awarded Hilti Platinum contractor status & is the #1 Hilti accredited contractor in Mid-Atlantic region)

In order to meet the stringent cleanliness requirements of the data center environment, all box walls had to be taped off prior to firestop installation. The attention to detail with both preparation and installation of the firestop systems was meticulous. To address safety issues, all firestop workers were tied off with harnesses as they were operating at 30 ft ceiling heights.

ARC’s quality of work and overall outstanding job performance resulted in the customer extending the contract beyond the previous limits to include an even greater area of the data center.
