Case Study:
Trueworld Interior Alteration

Industry: Commercial – Food Distribution

Project Duration: 3 – 6 Months

Client: Trueworld Interior Alteration

Size: Approximately 9,000 sq ft new interior slab area

Project Overview

Trueworld Interior Alteration, a food distribution company, required a significant transformation of their existing warehouse. The goal was to construct environmentally controlled production and storage areas to support their expanding operations. The project also included structural enhancements and functionality improvements to both interior and exterior portions of the facility.

Challenges

The primary challenge was executing complex interior alterations while minimizing disruption to adjacent areas. The facility required highly specific environmental controls to meet food safety standards. Additionally, integrating new concrete infrastructure — including a dock ramp — required precision coordination between trades and compliance with local permitting and inspection protocols.

Scope of Work

Our team was contracted solely to perform the scopes of work listed below. We were not responsible for any work completed by other trades outside of this defined scope:

  • Div. 2: Selective demolition of existing warehouse interiors

  • Div. 3: Concrete formwork & slab-on-grade (SOG) installations

  • Div. 9: Installation of epoxy-coated concrete floors & minor interior finishes

  • Div. 31: Earthwork for exterior concrete apron preparations

  • Div. 32: Pouring of new concrete apron & equipment pads

Exterior and Structural Modifications Included:

  • Construction of a concrete ramp with integrated drainage system

  • Saw cutting and core drilling of a new opening in the existing tilt-wall concrete panel to accommodate a new door installation

  • Saw cutting of a trench in existing concrete and grass to accommodate a new power line

Key Strategies

  • Phased Construction: Sequenced work to reduce downtime for the client.

  • Pre-Construction Coordination: Collaborated closely with architects, engineers, and suppliers to ensure all materials and designs met the specific requirements for food-grade spaces.

  • Quality & Safety Controls: Applied food-safe, industrial-grade coatings and maintained rigorous safety protocols throughout the jobsite.

  • Radar Scanning: Performed scanning of the existing slab to detect underground utilities, embedded pipes, or critical obstructions prior to saw cutting and coring.

Results

  • On-Time Delivery: Completion within the 6-month target window
  • Safety Record: Zero safety incidents or inspection delays
  • Facility Upgrade: Successful transformation of an ordinary warehouse into a food-safe, controlled-environment facility
  • Client-Ready Spaces: Production and storage zones equipped with high-performance flooring systems
