WHEN THE PERFECT PRECAST SOLUTIONS DON’T EXIST, WE CREATE THEM
Sometimes, traditional methods simply don’t cut it. When Randolph County Commission decided to build a new correctional
facility in Wedowee, Alabama, and needed to maximize bed space for their project, Tindall didn’t rely on existing solutions.
By working closely with the architect, JMR+H Architecture, PC, our team developed a new, open-air, dormitory-style
module that served as the building’s structure while capitalizing on every inch of the available 24,000 square feet of floor
space. This innovative open dorm solution, in conjunction with Tindall’s two-person lockdown cells, helped accelerate the
construction schedule by weeks while providing the reliability and consistency of a plant-manufactured product.

initial first cost and will require care to
maintain the function and operation of
the purchase. Extending the life cycle
of buildings, products and the systems
they employ is a major cost contributor to
operational expenses at every building.
The same goes with our automobiles.
Regular service can help keep our engine
running at peak performance, while
washing and cleaning the exterior and
interior can help maintain its value. What
is keeping me up lately is the nagging
question; is it worth it?
My Dad was a numbers guy. No, he
wasn’t a bookie, he was an accountant.
He was also a cost versus benefit versus
value analysis guy, looked at every
facet of a purchase in order to justify an
expense. For example: my Dad viewed
automobiles as transportation. To him, a
Ford had as much value as a Mercedes
Benz. It got you where you wanted to go.
The Ford had a lower cost to maintain
and got better gas mileage so for him,
buying a Ford was a win, win, even
though he could afford a Mercedes.
Dad was fastidious when it came to car
maintenance. “By the book” he, the old
Navy man would say. “Take care of your
car it will take care of you.” Dad also had
an expression he used in his trade; “keep
your pencils sharp”. Please have this
axiom in mind for later in this article.
What does the term maintenance
mean?
According to Wikipedia, the technical
meaning of the term maintenance
reports “a functional checks, servicing,
repairing, or replacing of necessary
devices, equipment, machinery, building
infrastructure, and supporting utilities
