Creating Unique Construction Solutions
Tuesday, May 24, 2011 at 09:15AM Creativity and “thinking outside the box” doesn’t just apply to design, it also applies to construction methods. At Aspen Group, we enjoy finding new, creative ways to accomplish a ministry's facility needs. Through careful research and collaboration with various construction partners, we often arrive at construction solutions that are of higher quality and more cost effective than traditional methods. Check out these project examples:
Timing was essential on this renovation and addition project. Aspen Group collaborated with Syntheon Inc. and decided to replace conventional framing and insulation with pre-engineered accel-E® panels. This non-traditional solution met the ministry needs of the church and fit the aggressive project schedule by providing speed and efficiency.
The top priority on this project was to meet a conservative budget while achieving the desired design for the worship center addition. Several key decisions made early on in the project, including the choice of using a pre-engineered building, saved the church thousands of dollars by ordering the steel before major price increases hit the marketplace.
And in the case of yet another church…an alternative roof solution reduced risk and provided significant cost savings. Rather than simply sending a low bid for the assumed correct solution, our roofing partner suggested a completely new roof system for the expansion project that would solve current roof issues, minimize the risk of future leaks in both the old and new roof, and at a lower cost than the original suggested approach.
These are just a couple examples of how working collaboratively with our partners and having up-to-date information on building technologies results cost savings and unique solutions church’s unique facility needs.

Our church went through a major construction project a few years ago. It is tough to expand a church building when the economy is bad. I'm glad to see you are doing well with your church expansion even with today's tough economy. Church supplies for church expansions.
