Modern Civic Design: Oakland Administration Building with Architectural Precast Panels

The Oakland Administration Building, located in Oakland, CA, represents a blend of modern design and functional civic architecture. Designed by Fentress Bradburn and built by Hensel Phelps Construction Co., this project utilizes architectural precast panels in two distinct colors to create a visually appealing and durable exterior. The use of these precast panels ensures that the building meets the high standards required for government facilities, offering both strength and sophisticated design.

The innovative use of two-color architectural precast panels allows for a unique facade that enhances the building’s aesthetic appeal while maintaining its structural integrity. The panels’ durability ensures long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance, making them an ideal choice for high-traffic civic buildings. This project highlights Willis Construction’s ability to deliver exceptional precast solutions that meet the stringent requirements of civic architecture, ensuring a safe, efficient, and welcoming environment for the public.

The collaboration between Fentress Bradburn, Hensel Phelps Construction Co., and Willis Construction was crucial to the project’s success. Detailed planning and precise execution ensured that the architectural precast panels met all design and structural specifications, resulting in a civic building that stands as a landmark of innovative design and construction.
