Imagine the urban warehouse of the future--and make it vertical. Building a distribution center just two miles from a city center has obvious appeal for an owner, but such a centralized location makes the available building footprint much smaller than the typical warehouse requires. DCI Engineers, The Walsh Group - Walsh Construction & Archer Western, Ware Malcomb, and Lyndon Steel Company LLC used Nucor Corporation’s high-strength Aeos A913 Grade 65 steel to build a two-story warehouse (a first in the Midwest!) that maximizes usable square footage. Another plus besides the extra space? High-strength steel reduced the overall weight, resulting in a more sustainable and cost-effective structure. Visit aisc.org/puzzles for the puzzle of the week, which offers a glimpse into how structural steel supports this first-of-a-kind warehouse.
