☀️ Happy first day of summer! ☀️
The sun is out (sometimes?), the days are long, and the building season is in full swing. Here’s to making the most of every bright, blue-sky day—on the jobsite and off! 🏗️🦺 #FirstDayOfSummer #BuildingBetterDays #TeamMDB #IntegratedDesignBuild #SummerConstructionVibes #CommercialConstruction
Did you know snow doesn’t fall evenly—and your roof definitely feels it? ❄️🏗️
Drifting snow can create uneven, heavy loads that put unexpected stress on a building’s structure.
When designing the @atlanticplywood Addition and the @blackbuttondistilling Rickhouse for Maguire Properties, we addressed this head-on—engineering intentional snow collection zones to safely manage the load and protect the integrity of the buildings.
Even in the heat of summer, we’re planning for the weight of winter. ☀️➡️❄️

To the dads who build, fix, guide, and support—on the job and at home—Happy Father’s Day! 👷♂️💙
From all of us at Mitchell Design Build, we’re grateful for the fathers on our team and in our lives who lay strong foundations every day.

Congratulations, Mat! Thank you for your hard work. #Anniversary #workiversary #TeamMDB #IntegratedDesignBuild #C#commercialconstruction
Ever think about what’s under your feet? At the @blackbuttondistilling Rickhouse, the concrete floor is more than meets the eye—reinforced with a dense grid of steel rebar to maximize strength. 💪 This added support boosts tensile strength, helping it withstand both the weight of the building and the heavy load of stacked bourbon barrels. Mitchell Design Build designed and constructed it strong for Maguire Properties—built to last, and built for bourbon. 🥃 #IntegratedDesignBuild #BuiltToLast #CommercialConstruction #PreengineeredMetalBuilding #PEMB #FoundationMatters #BuiltForBourbon
Did you know anchor bolts—those little powerhouses that secure structural columns—get installed way earlier in the build than most expect? ⛓️🏗️ With Integrated Design Build, our seamless teamwork between design and construction ensures no detail gets overlooked. It’s all about smart coordination from the ground up! #IntegratedDesignBuild #FromTheGroundUp #StructuralStrength #BehindTheBuild #DidYouKnow
Congratulations, Jacob, and thanks for your hard work! #anniversary #workiversary #TeamMDB #IntegratedDesignBuild #CommercialConstruction
