Client:  PDS Engineering and Construction
Owner:  Polamer Realty NB LLC

A new 150,000 facility situated on 8.25 acres within New Britain’s Pinnacle Business Park enables Connecticut high-tech aerospace manufacturer Polamer Precision to expand capacity, double its workforce, and facilitate economic growth.  The new, state-of-the-art facility houses 122,000 SF of manufacturing space and 22,000 SF of office space as well as inspection areas, conference and training rooms.  

Freeman Companies provided integrated site development services to the Prime Contractor, including land surveying, civil and geotechnical engineering, and environmental services.  A vacant site necessitated site circulation planning, new parking, walkways, loading areas, landscaping and security gates and fencing.  Due to the native, silty soil, geotechnical engineers recommended that the building be supported on spread footing foundations bearing on the native glacial till, compacted existing fill, and structural fill, with an earth-supported slab-on-grade floor slab.  Environmental scientists were also asked to review and summarize several reports prepared by others concerning previous abatement actions at the property.

Freeman Companies also provided assistance to the Owner and Construction Manager during the construction phase by providing construction stakeout and as-built drawings, observation of placement fill materials, confirmation of foundation subgrades suitability, and engineering consultation regarding the selection of fill materials and other issues.  

Freeman Companies provided the following services:
