- The healthcare campuses – hospital and medical-office development;
- The I-40 and I-540 flex and logistics corridors.

Permitting and Code in Raleigh
Commercial construction in Raleigh is governed by the North Carolina State Building Code, enforced through the City of Raleigh and Wake County. Its research and technology economy drives specialized commercial work.
- North Carolina State Building Code — statewide code with local plan review, permitting, and inspections;
- Life-sciences and lab — specialized mechanical, electrical, and clean-space systems for research and biotech facilities;
- Stormwater and site work — North Carolina and local stormwater and erosion-control requirements;
- Rapid-growth site development and Piedmont severe-weather design
We design and build to these from day one so a Raleigh project clears review and performs for the long term.
