Project Milestone | Foundations Poured at Armenian American Museum
Project Milestone | SoCal is known for its perfect year-round weather, however, yesterday had a brief but decent burst of rainfall and hail. Thankfully, in spite of the forecast, Glendale was spared and it turned out to be the perfect day for pouring concrete - 600 cubic yards, in fact.
With foundations poured and cured, the team presses on towards the slab pour for the future Armenian American Museum.

Upcoming milestones for this project include concrete pour for the footings and foundation of the parking structure and museum.
Project Flashback | Davis Core Imaging Project
Project Flashback | Ten years ago, PNG Builders completed the Davis Core Imaging project for Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Partnered with Zakian Woo Architects, this project encompassed the latest imaging research design concept and state-of-the-art technological equipment of its time. Located in the Davis Building, the complex remodel included transforming the existing space into new catheterization laboratories, electrophysiology laboratories, exam rooms, and support spaces.
Today, PNG Builders continues to build our medical portfolio with our valued clients and partners. We perform in and around existing facilities that are fully occupied with medical staff and patients. Our crews are accustomed to working in environments with regimented zero dust requirements, noise restrictions, confined spaces, and precarious scheduling requirements. We take the necessary steps to ensure patient safety and manage strict infection control procedures – all while minimizing interruptions to the daily operations of our client’s facilities.
Project Update | Fallbrook Energy Project
Project Update | Midweek progress at our 40MW SDG&E-Fluence Energy project in Fallbrook, CA: Equipment foundations are getting poured, excavation and installation of the electrical underground are well underway, forming of the blast wall and underground electrical at the substation, as well as delivery of half of the batteries for the 40MW battery energy storage system (BESS).
The project was announced back in 2018 and commissioned late last year after a pause surrounding the pandemic. PNG Builders is proud to say we are on track for an early summer turnover! Once completed, this energy facility will provide reliable grid support services to the local community.
A joint project by Fluence and SDG&E.
