Project Profile: Briggs & Stratton
Building Services Installation and Machinery Relocation & Installation, Auburn, Alabama / Statesboro, Georgia
We performed the HVAC and plumbing building systems installation for Briggs & Stratton’s new 400,000 SF manufacturing facility in Statesboro, as well as relocated and installed the equipment for the Statesboro and Auburn facilities.
A summary of the work we have performed during the erection of the facility is as follows:
Testimonial:
"I wanted to send you a note to let you know how pleased I am with the work Sack performed on the V-Twin assembly line installation... None of the work performed by Sack has required any repair or modification since it's installation. This speaks volumes of the crew you had on this project... They are obviously very experienced and I learned quite a deal from them. It is my sincere hope that I will have opportunity to work with them again in the future."

Briggs & Stratton Machinery Relocation & Installation, Auburn, Alabama / Statesboro, Georgia
We installed three, 900-ton chillers, four cooling towers, and 26 pumps ranging from 25 to 125 H.P. This job also included four vertical turbines, four vertical barrel mounted, and 18 end suction centrifugal pumps. We were responsible for precision aligning all equipment.
Additionally, we installed 33 air handlers ranging in size from 14,000 to 23,000 CFM, four plate and frame heat exchangers, two shell and tube heat exchangers, 27 variable air volume units, two 33,000 CFM air compressors, one 45,000 CFM air compressor, and 55 roof and wall mounted supply and exhaust fans for air distribution.
Approximately eight miles of piping ranging in size from small bore to 20-inch diameter was necessary to support the operation of this equipment.
Our work was accomplished in approximately eight months with an average crew size of 25 men.
Upon completion of the facility, we provided relocation and installation services of manufacturing equipment, die-cast machines, machining cells, overhead conveying systems, and assembly lines for the Statesboro facility, as well as in the new facility in Auburn. The assembly lines, totaling three complete with 130 stations and 2,000 foot long lines, each required approximately 12,000 man-hours to be expended in assembly through start-up in an 11-week period. We have made several additions along with numerous structural modifications to the facility during these installations.
