The building shape of this 8-story, 44-unit multifamily development presented challenges with radius walls, bay windows and the way the building tiers outward. Raymond provided BIM, which played a key role in early clash detection/field layout/design changes. The building includes a mixture of exterior slab-to-slab and balloon framing to highlight the exterior finish with minimal control joints. Raymond overcame challenges of the building’s shape, scaffold setup and logistics to create a continuous look around the building.
