5 of the Most Common Commercial Construction Projects

There are several different types of commercial construction, but certain types have different needs that are specific to their niche. When choosing a commercial construction contractor, it’s important to choose one who has experience in several of these areas.

RTF Construction is a commercial general contractor that proudly serves the Atlanta area with years of experience in putting together top-notch commercial construction projects that our clients are more than happy with. Here is a list of 5 of the most common types of projects, and what the general needs are of each niche.

1) Retail

Since the customers will be frequenting the building, the overall flow and layout of the space is paramount to an effective project. If you are building a retail store in Atlanta, you need to work with a company who has done this before.

Check out a list of our latest retail projects here.

2) Restaurants

When it comes to building restaurants, not only do you have to focus on the flow of the space to accommodate customers, but you also have to be knowledgeable of the Atlanta restaurant construction guidelines. These guidelines pertain to the safety of the building and the layout of the kitchen.

RTF Construction is a 5-star restaurant construction general contractor that has built spaces for places such as Alpine Bakery, Burger IM, Kaysons Grille, Planet Smoothie, and much more.

3) Office buildings

When you’re constructing an office, you have to keep the staff and management in mind, since they will be occupying the building during regular business hours. You need to construct a building that enhances the interior space and provides a spacious and stimulating environment to get the most out of your staff.

4) Medical Facilities

With hospitals and medical buildings, it’s critical that you have a building with plenty of space for patients, nurses and doctors, but you also need ample space for emergency medical equipment and vehicles. An experienced commercial general contractor for this niche is needed when you’re dealing with people who are potentially very sick or injured.

5) Metal Buildings

Facilities to store large equipment and large amounts of inventory are much needed for many businesses in and around the Atlanta area. With these spaces, ceiling heights in certain rooms need to be adjusted, and lower levels may need to be constructed. RTF Construction delivers 5-star results for all of your prefabricated metal construction needs.
