The team consisted of Pfeffer Development, KPB ARCHITECTS, EBSC Engineering, Reid Middleton, Inc., design build mechanical with General Mechanical, Inc. and RSA Engineering, design build electrical with Redi Electric, Inc. and EIC Engineers, Inc.
We started demolition of the existing building next to the LIO in December 2013 and worked through-out the winter towards the completion date set for December 2014. The complex project included removal of all interior partitions, finishes, mechanical, fire protection sprinkler and electrical systems. Criterion demolished an existing building in order to add approximately 24,000 sq.ft. to the structure. A six story fabricated steel addition was constructed to house the new restroom/elevator core. Criterion also removed the exterior concrete lateral support walls and replaced them with structural upgrade brace frame systems and high performance glass and metal wall panel systems. We replaced the building roof and installed high speed elevators.
To support the construction of the LIO building, we operated a Manitowoc 14000 (220-ton capable) crawler crane. The crane was configured with 213’ of main boom and a 50’ jib. It took a crew of 10 along with 12 truckloads to move the crane offsite. The use of a Grove RT890 (90-ton capable crane) was also used to accelerate the demobilization.

Nok Aluitiiq Center.
This building houses the Alutiiq Museum and Archaeological Repository as well as the corporate offices of the Natives of Kodiak, Inc., and the Afognak Native Corporation.
This project was funded through a combination of privately obtained financing and the Exxon Valdez Restoration Fund. It was designed by USKH, Inc., and offered for public bid. Criterion was the low bidder from a field of 12 with an offer of approximately $2,500,000. The bid amount was substantially higher than the owner’s budget and we were asked to offer value engineering suggestions. Through this process, and by working as a team with the owner and architect, we were able to reduce the contract value by over 10%, enabling the project to go forward. We successfully completed the project and gave the owner occupancy more than three months ahead of schedule, which resulted in further savings to N.O.K. in the form of office rents.
This is a project of which we are particularly proud because of its cultural significance. The opening exhibits in the museum included local artwork, Native artifacts from the Kodiak area that had never been publicly displayed, and an exhibit from the Smithsonian Institute.
