GEOGRAPHIC DATA TECHNOLOGIES
Location: Lebanon, New Hampshire
Architect: Randall T. Mudge & Assoc.
Contract Amount: $2,259,811

This 37,000 s.f. building was built in 2 phases. The original building consisted of 22,000 s.f. and was constructed in 1993. An additional 15,000 s.f. was added in 1999; both phases were built by Ingram Construction. The facility consists of a combination of private and open office areas, conference and training rooms, and support and public space. The interior of the building features a variety of high end finishes including barrel vault ceilings, structural glue laminated timber beams, wood block flooring, stainless steel and glass stair rails, and thousands of board feet of natural finish fir wood work and paneling. Training and conference rooms are equipped with state of the art communication and media equipment.

FLUENT INC.
Location: Lebanon, New Hampshire
Architect: Randall T. Mudge & Assoc.
Contract Amount: $1,947,932

Fluent is a 5 phase project encompassing 60,000 sf of floor space. This sprawling building has 225 individual offices, 14 conference room, 3 training rooms, and 3 fully equipped employee break room/kitchen/cafeterias. Fluent designs and develops computational fluid dynamics software---a field that is constantly changing and expanding. Accordingly, this building has to be adaptable to the ever changing state-of-the-art of information technology. Employee comfort is assured as each of the 225 offices has its own heat pump, exterior window, and custom designed built in office furniture.

HOLIDAY INN VACATION CLUB AT MT. ASCUTNEY - NEW PATIO, DRAINAGE & STRUCTURAL REPAIRS
Location: Brownsville, Vermont
Architect: In House in collaboration with Engineering Ventures Inc., Lebanon, NH
Contract Amount: $278,443

Working closely with the Owner, Ingram Construction Corporation was able to improve several conditions at the Windham Building at the Ascutney Mountain Resort. The exterior brick paver patio was replaced with a beautiful stamped concrete one, the existing covered walkway was replaced with a combination frost wall/sidewalk structure, and the existing deck and stairway received extensive repairs. Most of the problems that ICC addressed were caused by very poor sub-surface drainage and all of these conditions were addressed as part of this contract.

SILVER DIRECT
Location: Marlborough, NH
Architect: Richard M. Monahon Jr., AIA, Architects – Peterborough, NH
Contract Amount: $620,931

This new facility for a marketing/graphic design/printing business placed a high degree of emphasis on energy efficiency in its design. The building’s envelope is comprised of a combination of dense pack cellulose and closed cell foam. The high performance HVAC system utilized heat pumps that temper the incoming fresh air with warm air recovered from the building, thereby reducing heating costs. The lighting and plumbing fixtures were carefully chosen based on their high performance and energy efficiency. The siding is comprised of fiber cement boards. Because of the building’s proximity to Minnewawa Brook the Owner opted to pave the parking lot with pervious concrete. The advantages of this strategy were twofold:
Storm water was allowed to perc directly through the concrete and into the gravelly soils that were native to the site, filtering the water naturally---the very essence of what “Green Building” is intended to do.
By eliminating subsurface piping, catch basin structures, storm water retention ponds, and so on ICC was able to greatly reduce the cost of the site work and the Owner could invest those savings in the building.
These and other measures were easily integrated into the building’s design due in part because to the “team” approach that developed between the Owner, Architect, and Ingram Construction.

WEATHERSFIELD CMG PARK
Location: Weathersfield, VT
Architect: Hoyle Tanner, & Associates, Inc. – Manchester, NH
Contract Amount: $26,750

This small shelter at a Park n’ Ride lot just off Exit 7 on Interstate 91 in Weathersfield, VT is proof that small things can have a large impact. Providing carpoolers with a safe, well lit shelter can help encourage these commuters to “buddy up”, thereby reducing the number of single passenger vehicles on our highways. This small timberframe structure with its copper roof is something Ingram Construction Corporation is pleased to have been associated with.
