The Samaritan’s Purse Furman Building consisted of a conference center and office building. The entire project included approximately 45,000 sf and three-stories of occupied space plus additional sub-surface levels and a parking structure. The two-story conference/office building is a structural steel frame with precast architectural masonry and heavy wood timbers along with an extensive aluminum curtain wall system. The roof consists of a combination of flat membrane and architectural standing seam metal. The interior includes a full commercial kitchen and dining area. The 2nd and 3rd floors consist of office spaces. Interior finishes are “high level” including natural wood and slate floors with oak monumental stairs and a stone fireplace. The two-story parking structure is a CIP structure with precast elements.
