Reshaping the Phoenix skyline one castellated beam at a time!
Welcome to the Rediscover Logistics Phoenix! Brandon Bell (Founder & CEO of Next Level Steel) takes us behind the scenes to show how modern structural engineering is pushing commercial construction forward across the Valley.
When developer ViaWest Group and general contractor Willmeng Construction needed an efficient, cost-effective framing strategy, they partnered with Next Level Steel to deploy innovative castellated steel structures.
Why expanded castellated beams are transforming builds in Greater Phoenix:
* Compresses Framing Depth: Lowers exterior wall height to slash concrete tilt-panel & rebar costs.
* Bypasses Lead Times: Eliminates traditional bar joist bottlenecks and deferred submittal delays.
* Holistic Savings: Reduces foundation loads and structural dead weight across the entire building envelope.
This project is a true masterclass in smart, collaborative building!
