Archer Western Contractors was responsible for two major concurrent contracts at Raleigh-Durham Airport in North Carolina: a seven level, 2,100,000 SF parking garage housing 6,185 spaces and an extensive civil work package to support the garage and surrounding areas. The garage is an unbonded, cast-in-place, post tensioned concrete structure that features six supported at grade levels as well as a below grade roadway under a portion of the structure. Two post-tensioned, cast-in-place helices were constructed, containing an atrium which has eight elevators and a pair of powered walkways that were included in the scope of work.
