NevDEX Building 4

General Description
NevDex Business Park is Reno’s largest existing suburban office park encompassing over 260,000 square feet of Class A office space. The park is located at the intersection of US 395 and Neil Road with prominent US 395 and Kietzke Lane frontage. This building is the fourth and final building in this business park.

The 65,000 square foot commercial center currently has a varied mix of tenants and is constructed to maximize square footage to meet any potential tenant’s needs.

This project was constructed utilizing reinforced concrete tilt up panels and structural steel.  The exterior of the building is clad using a glass curtain wall. To conceal the structural steel components of the building Spandrel glass panels were strategically placed to cover these structural components.  The completed structure architecturally looks like a tower of glass capped by a tiled mansard roof.

Special Challenges
Some of the unique challenges in building this project were constructing and standing the large tilt-up concrete panels as well as coordinating the glass curtain wall with the structural steel interfaces. Another unique challenge was this was one of the first buildings to be constructed in Reno, Nevada after the adoption of the 2003 International Building Code. The code change caused challenges in coordinating tried and true building plans with the new code requirements.
