Our Recent-Projects Include New Construction As-Well-As Addition and Renovation of House, Commercial, Condo, Light-Industrial, Multi-Family Buildings, ...

In my Jan-26-2007 post on Rehabilitating-Existing-Building-in-Highland-Park-Michigan I had stated that although the building which was previously a Super Market had been lying vacant for some time, structurally, the building is in decent shape.

In my last post, I had presented some pictures from my walk-down of the exterior of the building. In this post, I am going to discuss my inspection of the interior of the building.

The building is nominally 124 ft by 110 ft. The exterior walls are 12" concrete block masonry faced with brick on the outside. There are 4 Nos. 6" dia pipe columns structurally making it into 3 bays on each side. The building has a flat metal deck roof supported on steel beams in the interior and on block masonry walls on the outside.

I present here some pictures of the interior framing of the building.
