T&T Construction Management Group Inc., a woman-owned premier concrete specialty contractor, has been awarded the contract for the concrete and tilt-up scope of work at the Orange County Fire Rescue Training Facility in Orlando, Florida. Mulligan Constructors Inc. selected T&T for this project. T&T’s scope entails site work, new commercial construction and logistical support on the placement of various fire training props.
“We are proud to be working on a project that has such a meaningful impact on our community and supports and trains our firefighters and medics,” said Rebecca Thomas, T&T Construction Management’s CEO. “Our team is working diligently to meet our client’s goals; we use modern construction techniques to ensure high-quality and long-lasting results that are delivered on time and within budget.”
The $38 million project sits on a roughly 38-acre parcel. The campus includes an education center with classrooms, administrative offices, locker rooms and mock fire station apparatus bays. The rest of the campus is supported by multi-story drill and burn towers, pavilions, a testing center, a collapse building and a trench training area.
KMF Architects’ partnership with Orange County has been four years in the making, the firm said.
“KMF’s vision aims to provide our fire and rescue personnel with a unique facility they can be proud of,” said Eric Kleinsteuber, AIA, design director and partner at KMF Architects. “Our firm is always looking for the best design solutions to any program question, and we have solved that for Orange County Fire Rescue.”
