Size: 19,000 sq. ft.
Owner: Clayton Home Building Group
J&S Construction teamed up with Clayton Supply, a division of Clayton Home Building Group®, to complete a full renovation to the office space of a 130,000 square-foot manufacturing facility in Westmoreland, Tenn.
Clayton, headquartered in Maryville, is one of the largest homebuilders in the nation and will be devoting the Sumner County site to a new panel construction division, with the primary focus being premanufactured assemblies for on-site home builders. Scheduled for operations to begin later this year, the plant will be responsible for the manufacturing of wall panels and trusses for single-family and multi-family homes in and around the Nashville market.
J&S Construction successfully completed demolition and renovations to a 19,000 square-foot office area, creating an inviting space, complete with raised ceilings, a main lobby, cubicles and a bistro café. New storefronts and curtainwall systems were added to both the interior and exterior, and intricate wall elevations were also incorporated that taper the demising walls.
Modifications and fabrications of steel beams were essential for J&S Construction to be able to accommodate the chic design; and J&S Construction also installed new structural beams to avoid the need for additional columns.
A new entry vestibule with exposed architectural truss system was also incorporated and gives way for a new cozy, outdoor seating area for its employees to enjoy.
Clayton proudly employs more than 5,400 associates across the U.S. and looks for this facility to create approximately 110 jobs in Sumner County.
“Clayton Supply Westmoreland is a tangible continuation of our vision to adapt innovations in the off-site housing industry for on-site building methods,” President of subsidiary Clayton Home Building Group Keith Holdbrooks said in the company’s official news release. “We look forward to developing Clayton Supply Westmoreland into a world-class working environment for our team members so that they have a place that they are excited to come to work to every day.”
