WRI Case Study: 🍑 One Peachtree Office Tower, Atlanta, Georgia
Check out this study of this beautiful 60 story office tower that was completed just 30 months after the start of construction — a phenomenal time frame for an all-concrete frame high rise structure.

One of the reasons the project was kept on schedule was due to converting to welded wire reinforcement on the majority of the floors. The project comprises 1.4 million sq feet of floor space and 1.1 million sq feet of parking structure and other amenities.
