City of San Antonio Fire Station 53 — Metal Stud Framing

San Antonio, TX · Municipal — Light-Gauge Metal Stud Framing

Light-gauge metal stud framing scope on a new municipal fire station for the City of San Antonio.

Project overview

BP Construction Company self-performed the light-gauge metal stud framing scope for the City of San Antonio Fire Station 53 project. The work included interior demising walls, fire-rated partitions, shaft walls, soffits, and ceiling framing built to the architect's stamped set and coordinated against the prime contractor's MEP rough-in schedule.

Municipal projects of this type demand strict adherence to inspection cycles, fire-rated assembly details, and material submittal tracking. As an experienced commercial carpentry contractor and industrial construction contractor, BP staffed the framing crew to keep ahead of the critical path and delivered the scope ready for drywall and follow-on trades.
