The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District, is conducting research to determine the market capabilities of potential contractors to renovate a Physical Therapy Area. Project consists of the interior renovation of an existing two-story space, approximately 3500sf to create a new Physical Therapy space. A concrete floor supported by metal deck, steel beams and new interior steel columns will convert the existing one-story with mezzanine into a full two-story space. A new steel and concrete interior stair will be constructed to allow access to new second floor. New layout will be achieved through gypsum board/ metal stud partitions. Mechanical, electrical and fire protection systems will all be reconfigured to accommodate the new layout. Project includes all new finishes and installation of relocated casework. The magnitude of construction for this project will be between $500,000.00 and $1,000,000.00.
