Agriboard at Fort Hood “Agriboard offers Fort Hood many benefits not found in other exterior wall systems. The combination of energy efficiency and renewable resource content offers multiple SPiRiT/LEED certification credits. The ease of installation and the reduction in construction time makes Agriboard preferred to traditional construction methods.” Jeff Salmon, Directorate of Public Works-Environmental Division, Fort Hood, Texas
TO: JEFF CRIPPENFROM: MIKE OMANDATE: JULY 13, 2006SUBJECT: AGRIBOARD RECOGNITIONI would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation for the quality and installation of the Agriboard system on the Wachovia Bank Casa Linda project. Being that this was my first experience with the system, I was impressed with the design and manufacturing of the panels along with their structural integrity. Equally impressive is how the panels are designed for installation. With my lack of experience in the system I was anticipating some difficulty making panel connections. However, the design and the quality in manufacturing made installation seem simple. I would also like to recognize the efforts of Dawn Morgan, Paul Pittman and Jim Murphy. Dawn’s knowledge of the design for this project along with her pre-construction coordination was a valuable asset. Paul, Jim and the Agriboard crew members headed the installation with assistance from Turner’s subcontractor’s Marek Brothers and Tippen Steel. As we encountered some obstacles in concrete variances and conflicts with steel, the experience of the Agriboard crew proved valuable in keeping this project on schedule. I witnessed this to be a true team effort between Agriboard and Turner.It is my pleasure to have worked with your team and look forward to any future projects.TURNER CONSTRUCTIONMIKE OMANProject Superintendent – Wachovia Casa Linda
