PRETZELS, INC.
Lawrence, KS
Design/Build
“You knocked it out of the park!” _JEFF TURK, VP Development Services, Van Trust Real Estate
This design/build project was the first food production job for Brinkmann. A fast-track schedule included a phased permitting plan to both design and build the plant in 10 months. This project included many unique aspects, including a caustic system, acid PH neutralization system for wastewater, a process water system, compressed air piping, a walkable ceiling and a tank farm design with snow melt glycol system.
This project was designed to LEED Silver Standards to receive tax credits. The Brinkmann team got the owner in on time to allow them to start pretzel production.

COLLINS AEROSPACE
Lenexa, KS
Design/Assist
This new aircraft interiors facility for Collins Aerospace focuses on engineering, new product development, unique manufacturing process, and a maintenance repair and overhaul service area. It more than doubles the square footage of the previous facility and has space for future expansion.
Brinkmann used Building Information Modeling (BIM) allowing for better projection coordination, efficient workflows, and 3D visualizations during the planning process, setting the project up for success early on. This tactic allowed Brinkmann to develop and coordinate with MEP subcontractors, integrate owner-provided equipment and provide walk-throughs of the project. Finalizing the detail area layouts early allowed for large quantities of prefabricated equipment, racks, support, and misc. components that accelerated schedule and lowered the overall project costs.
The facility includes a 42,000 SF class 4 clean room for oxygen tank assembly, and 7,500 SF of climate chamber rooms designed to keep relative humidity below 2%, with prefabricated double insulated aluminum walls/ceilings, rapid roll-up interlocked doors and 420 stainless duct work.

LEONARDO DRS
Bridgeton, MO
This best-in-class engineering, research and development and laboratory space houses the majority of Leonardo DRS business unit’s development and platform systems integration activities. Brinkmann constructed this 171,000 SF warehouse, office, research facility including all sitework and interior tenant improvements.
After several design meetings and a deep review of each light fixture, the Brinkmann team was able to cut the initial $1.4 million lighting spec in half to $700,000. A code consultant was hired to reduce the original design of the fire walls to not only reduce cost but also accelerate the schedule at the full height demising walls, leading to a savings of $48,000.
This project was finished two weeks ahead of schedule, even with COVID-19, last minute changes from the tenant, and the need for a phased schedule to allow for the Leonardo DRS to start furniture install before the building was complete. This took a lot of additional work by the crew onsite to coordinate with the local AHJ’s to get TCO’s for each phase, which then released DRS to start with their furniture for that phase.
The Brinkmann team communicated regularly at all levels and with all teams to reach the same goal AND deliver the project ahead of schedule.

FED EX GROUND HIGHFIELD BUSINESS PARK
Englewood, CO
Design/Build
Brinkmann Constructors acted as a turn-key design builder for this regional distribution and office facility. Half of the tilt-up concrete building was to receive sloped floors with trench drains where the box trucks drive into the facility for loading. This created a sequencing challenge as the sloped space could not be easily used as a casting bed for the tilt-up walls. By applying other sequencing approaches, the team successfully navigated this challenge.
This project also had a complex MEPF systems including vehicle exhaust system, CO2 monitoring, combination of wet & dry fire sprinkler systems, and coordination with owner provided conveyor equipment.

KOLB BIOENERGY NMI, PHASE II
Dexter, NM
The bioenergy plant is for converting cow manure into biogas via anaerobic digestion. The Dexter plant is surrounded by multiple dairies. The cow manure from the dairies is loaded onto trucks and delivered to the biogas plant. This particular plant will produce approximately 20 million CF per year of biogas.
After it’s processed, approximately 82 million gallons per year of nutrient liquid will be returned via pipelines to the dairies to be used as irrigation. Approximately nine miles of pipeline will be installed to carry the nutrient liquid back to the grazing land.
