Re-Imagining the Future of Warehouses

DCI and Nucor case study on award-winning Midwest warehouse

When space is limited in an urban area, the only way to go is up! DCI and Nucor present their case study of a 1.2-million-square-foot, multi-story distribution center in a Midwest city center and how design engineering played a key role in making this project a reality and meeting sustainability goals.

DCI Principal in Charge of Sustainability, Roger Heeringa, will be presenting an AIA-accredited webinar on Tuesday, November 18, at 11am PST.

Attendees will learn:

How design decisions can reduce a project’s embodied carbon footprint.
How Aeos™ ASTM A913 Grade 65 high-strength steel beams and columns can support demanding loads and long spans for multi-story structures.
How sustainability goals were set, measured, and tracked throughout the project.
Key lessons learned that you can apply to future designs and builds.

Registration is available HERE.

In October, the project won a 2nd Place Award for Low Rise Structures in the 2025 ACI Excellence in Concrete Awards.
