Con-Way Oxnard Motor Freight Service

Con-way Freight, Inc., Oxnard, California

TranSystems served as prime consultant on the 21,900-square-foot service center facility involving a 56-door motor freight terminal dock distribution center, 2,640-square-foot offices, and fueling facilities. Architectural features included a two-story glass and pre-cast wall around the employee parking lot which satisfied the local business park Architectural Review Board while a more typical office and dock facility was constructed behind this façade. Built within an area subject to seismic subsurface liquification, the foundations required special attention. Several alternative foundation systems were "value engineered" before the most cost effective alternative was selected.
