en.Wedoany.com Reported - GCC Construction, a French general contracting company, has used integrated timber structure production for the first time in the heavy renovation of an office building in the heart of La Défense, completing all five major timber structure works from design to installation with its in-house team.
The project involves the heavy renovation of an office building built in the late 1970s, with a dense construction site and limited space. GCC Construction leveraged its experience in complex general contracting projects and its expertise in integrated timber structures from design to installation. This marks the first time the company has applied its own production capabilities to timber structure technology on a similar site. All five major timber structure works were completed in-house, led by GCC's carpentry division, with installation carried out by craftsmen from the GCC EXTENS subsidiary, closely coordinated with the site team according to a strict multi-trade collaborative schedule.
By combining general contracting management, in-house engineering, self-production, specialized craftsmen, and meticulous trade coordination, GCC Construction has strengthened its position in complex renovation projects while showcasing its timber structure expertise. Julien Antoine, CEO of GCC Construction, stated: "Through the renovation of this office building, GCC Construction has demonstrated its ability to fully integrate timber into complex projects, controlling the entire value chain from design to on-site implementation. This project represents a significant advancement in our skills, with self-production enabling us to achieve greater control, higher precision, and better performance in technically demanding works."
