Peckham Industries, Inc., the leading construction materials supplier and precast manufacturer in eastern New York and western New England, had a strong desire to express building materials in their new 20,000 square foot, two-story corporate headquarters.

The structural system consisted of steel framing with steel bar joist roof framing, metal deck roof sheathing, reinforced slab-on-grade, and composite steel elevated floors with concrete slab, and light gauge metal stud framed walls supported on shallow foundations.

Exposed brace frames and extensive walls of glass were utilized in the two-story atrium to take advantage of scenic views from the hillside location.
