Design-build commercial modular construction firm Ramtech Building Systems of Mansfield has completed the installation of three new modular buildings for First Baptist Church Frisco (FBC).
The 23,386 square foot project includes a 6,750 square foot middle school student worship center with a 13-foot high vaulted ceiling, and 12 fellowship classrooms. The other two facilities include an 8,060 square foot 14 classroom adult education facility with a fellowship area, and an 8,576 square foot building with six classrooms and 14 private offices with adjacent administrative support areas for the ministry staff.
As the general contractor for the modular construction project, Ramtech managed all of the site preparation. A HardiePanel exterior with a stucco finish was used to match the masonry finish of the existing structures, while the interiors include vinyl covered gypsum wall coverings, commercial grade carpet, and lay-in tile ceilings. Ramtech provided the canopies and steps, ramps, and landings for each building.
As part of the company’s continuing focus on developing modular church building projects for faith-based organizations, Ramtech was chosen to provide the new facilities in order to meet the demand for additional space due to First Baptist Frisco’s rapidly growing congregation. Started in 1902 in what was then only a one-horse train stop town, FBC Frisco is located in one of the fastest growing cities in Texas. The Church expects to add 1,100 new members and to use the buildings for a minimum period of four years while permanent expansion plans are developed at a new site.
According to Steve Stege, Executive Pastor of FBC Frisco, “Ramtech exceeded our expectations with these buildings and we will definitely relocate them to any future site that we develop.”
All of the modular buildings used for the FBC Frisco project were designed and manufactured at Ramtech’s Mansfield manufacturing facility, part of a 20 acre development located in the southern part of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex.
