Key speciality contractors from design and construction were integrated into the project very early on, which resulted in a more efficient design that both reduced cost and accelerated the schedule. The structural steel was fabricated and erected $7.2 million under budget and 6 weeks ahead of schedule. The erection was completed with zero change orders and one quarter of the typical number of RFI's.
This 424,000 square foot four-story building is the new terminal for international arrivals. The $1.27 billion project, dubbed “The Big Build”, was the largest capital improvement program in the history of Sacramento County. The design allows natural light to stream through a weave of structural steel, recreating the canopy effect common along Sacramento's tree-lined streets. The building is designed to achieve LEED Platinum certification.
The sleek curves and intricate structural patterns of this 367,000 sf, 2,265 seat concert hall make it unique. Refusing to abide by modern principles of architecture, Gehry rebels against the idea that form follows function.
The Red Building consists of two towers that together contain 400,000 square feet built above a seven-story parking garage.

The Nokia Theater is a music and theatre venue seating 7,100. Herrick fabricated and erected the structural roof system that consists of 180’ long span steel trusses and associated framing. The structural steel was fabricated and erected on time and within budget.
