Case Study: Modular wall installation for approximately 100 Private Offices. The drywall/ceiling contractor mistakenly installed the header for the office fronts over 2 inches too close to the rear wall of the offices. To redo the soffit and ceiling would have cost a fortune, and caused the contractor, who was small in size, a fortune. The deadline for the move in would have been impacted as well, causing a major disruption for the end user. The fronts were glass and the dividing walls were solid 57" and 24" partitions with a spring loaded channel that sprung against the rear sheetrock wall once installed, giving the dividing wall around a 1 1/4" play. The wrong header made the opening too tight. Solution: remove the spring loaded filler, and screw a piece of ceiling track against the sheet rock wall. This allowed the rear, 24" panel, to be inserted into the channel rather than the spring loaded filler be used to close the gap. Problem solved. This saved the drywall/ceiling contractor not only a fortune, but major embarrassment . The end user, and even the architect never knew. Subs working together, and not against each other, is the key to every successful project. When working on a project, it is so important for all of the subs to work as a team and look out for each others success, as well as the success of the project and the client. #commercialconstruction #drywall #steelcase #ceiling #walls #millerknoll #cbre #jll #vornado #cushmanandwakefield #carpentry #commercialleasing #officeleasing #officespace #officefurniture #architecture #nycarchitecture #miamirealestate #miamicommercialrealestate #miamioffice #rxr #turnerconstruction Cushman & Wakefield JLL CBRE Steelcase Knoll
