new case study 0406

Over the course of a fast-paced 2.5-year project, California Sheet Metal (CSM) fabricated and installed over 116,000 square feet of panels as part of the modernization of San Diego International Airport’s Terminal 1. The scope involved coordinating with multi-trade teams, engineering custom solutions to encapsulate complex MEP systems and constructing a new Smart Curb system.

Key Features:

  • 116,000+ sq. feet of fabricated and installed panel systems
  • 265 architectural column covers (236 interior, 29 exterior)
  • 53,000 sq. feet of Smart Curb panels consisting of 2,000+ individual panels
  • Seamless MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing) system integration

Project Details:

CSM produced over 63,000 square feet of panels to build 265 architectural column covers large enough to fully encapsulate and coordinate the airport’s complex MEP systems within each structural column. During design development, CSM provided detailed mockups that informed the final MEP coordination. This collaborative effort ensured seamless integration between trades, preserving a clean, modern aesthetic alongside complex building systems.
