They're getting close to pouring the last half of the deck, and they have also started framing the first above deck floor. #BremikConstruction
Instagram post 2314274176649091644_1038626147 Summertime is always the busiest time of year for school construction! We’re currently preparing sites at #McKayHighSchool and #AuburnElementarySchool in the @salemkeizer #SchoolDistrict. Over the past week, our crews at both McKay and Auburn have been clearing trees and performing demolition. We’ll be working hard throughout the summer on additions and renovations for each school. Thank you to Senior PE Jacob Hanson for sharing these pictures of McKay High School! We'll be sharing photos from Auburn Elementary School soon, so stay tuned for more progress shots and updates! #BremikConstruction

In the coming weeks we’ll backfill the existing basement and work on site utilities. Thank you to Senior PE Alyse for the pictures! #BremikConstruction
Instagram post 2299757055177123784_1038626147 It's been a while since we updated everyone on project progress for LoLo Pass, but things are moving right along! This month has seen a lot of progress, as we finished wood framing on the second and third floors and started working on framing the fourth floor. We also began roughing in for the plumbing, electrical, low-voltage, and fire sprinkler on the second, third, and fourth floors. Expect more progress updates as we begin self-performing window installations and work on the exterior envelope!
Instagram post 2298341354230819766_1038626147 Earlier this month, the Mirador office space we've been working on with @gbdarchitects received a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy (TOC)! We're hoping to receive a final Certificate of Occupancy in May. The two office floors look great, and we're excited for employees to be able to use their new space!
Instagram post 2296878817767131539_1038626147 Bremik carpenter Matt Fiocchi is currently working on One Community Health in Hood River, and his wife-to-be Danielle Meyers just so happens to be the City of Hood River's building inspector! We had to get a picture of them together since it's not every day you get a husband-wife duo working on the same job. #BremikConstruction #BeTheBest
Instagram post 2284531254932352501_1038626147 Happy Friday, everyone! Senior Project Engineer Dulce Weston recently shared some progress photos of Kaiser Sunset Medical Office. The first picture shows a new “Weighing Alcove” that we built at both Primary Care modules. This will allow nurses to take patient weight, height, and blood pressure in a centralized space, before bringing patients into exam rooms. In addition to improving spatial efficiency, we've upgraded the staff amenities space and exam rooms with new finishes. The subsequent photos show some before and afters of the exam rooms, which alternate between orange and blue pops of color.
Instagram post 2278764282101733082_1038626147 #BeaconLakeOswego is looking good, if we do say so ourselves! The events center on the fourth floor is finished and work for @centrl_office on the second and third floors is getting close to completion. We just began framing for the Lola's Market space on the ground floor, and we're also working on finalizing the exterior. Way to go, team! #BremikConstruction #BeTheBest
Instagram post 2278027388272458802_1038626147 It may still be chilly out (and occasionally hailing), but this sweet picture is a perfect excuse to bring #WheresBremikWednesday out of hibernation! Thank you to Project Manager Spencer Bradley's friends for sharing this cute photo of their daughter rocking Bremik swag!
Instagram post 2273690624199186349_1038626147 It’s official—this is our last project (though certainly not the least in our hearts) on Bremik’s Top 15 Favorite Projects list. We collaborated with @reynoldssd7 and #BLRBArchitects to build Troutdale Elementary School. The project replaced an 88-year-old school with a new 72,000 sf, two-story elementary school with capacity for 519 students. There is a total of 24 classrooms, with four classrooms for each grade centered around a learning commons space. Troutdale Elementary School provides an example and inspiration for the development of cost-effective yet warm, flexible and functional high-performance public-school facilities. Developed via a modified prototypical design process that encompassed a broad cross-section of district, school, and community stakeholders, Troutdale illustrates the benefit of standardizing learning spaces— providing educational and amenity parity across diverse communities within a single school district— while providing the opportunity to tailor facility design to the unique character and needs of individual schools and neighborhoods. Building a brand-new school and demolishing the old didn’t leave any flexibility in the schedule. Despite numerous weather delays due to strong winds, Bremik was able to overcome all challenges to complete the new elementary school on time and on budget. In fact, out of the three elementary schools, Troutdale was the last to start but the first to finish. Bremik self-performed all framing, concrete, and siding on the project.As the first elementary school in Oregon to register for Energy Trust of Oregon’s Path to Net Zero program (along with its companion schools, Wilkes and Fairview) Troutdale Elementary demonstrates that meaningful energy efficiency and resource conservation strategies can be cost-effectively integrated into the planning and design processes for public school facilities without significantly elevating project construction costs.
Instagram post 2272987589005787235_1038626147 A couple of weeks ago, Bremik was honored at @agcofamerica's national convention in Las Vegas. We placed third in the Building Division (225,000-400,000 work hours) for America's Construction Safety Excellence Award (CSEA Award). Safety Director Michelle Brunetto accepted the award on Bremik's behalf. We are incredibly proud of being honored with such a prestigious award for our commitment to safety. We also want to congratulate all of the other winners who were honored at the convention—particularly our fellow @agcorecol members!
Instagram post 2268639465625291113_1038626147 We’re down to our last two projects on Bremik’s Top 15 Favorite Projects list! This week we’re excited to share the story of Towne Storage’s adaptive reuse. This building, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, was transformed from a warehouse into creative office space and is now home to Autodesk’s Worldwide Headquarters. The project has been lauded for its transformation and has received the Portland Business Journal 2017 Transformer Award, Restore Oregon 2018 DeMuro Award, and AIA Oregon 2019 Seismic Upgrade Citation Award.The 100,000 sf restoration lasted 16 months and began with interior demolition and an extensive seismic upgrade. Bremik collaborated closely with @lrsarchitects and #SentinelDevelopment to salvage materials and ensure the original character of the 1916 building was preserved, while improving elements such as energy efficiency and structural integrity. For example, more than 200 of the original wood window sashes were able to be salvaged; after new, more energy-efficient glass was placed in the sashes, the building’s windows were reinstalled.A new roof was added, and various entrances throughout the building were improved and brought up to modern accessibility standards. The well-known water tower that crowns the building was repaired, and all original masonry and concrete was restored. Bremik self-performed much of the work on this sensitive project, including concrete, demo, framing, finish carpentry, window rehabilitation, window installation, and doors, frames, and hardware.
