Proj Overview
The new 59,000 square foot H & H Chrysler-Dodge-Jeep-Ram-Fiat building features a 25,000-square-foot showroom, service center, car wash, 4,500-square-foot parts mezzanine and customer lounge with
kids play area.

For the project, Coreslab Structures (Omaha) Inc. manufactured 22,600 square feet of insulated precast concrete wall panels with a gray, “ladder” reveal pattern that was obtained by utilizing a formliner. The insulated precast concrete wall panels incorporated 2” of polyisocyanate insulation.
Coreslab Structures (Omaha) Inc. also manufactured 13 precast concrete trash enclosures for the facility.

The dealership also boasts one of the area’s first hail net systems. The 135,000-square-foot net protects inventory from hail, heat and UV rays. The nets will help protect a large portion of the inventory and reduce insurance premiums for the dealership.

When an unprecedented flood hit early on in the project, it caused a significant material delay. “Our precast manufacturer was literally underwater,” said Project Manager John Maderak. Darland worked successfully with H & H and Coreslab Structures (Omaha) Inc. to get the product on site as quickly as
possible to minimize the delay.
