Final steel beam to be hoisted into place for phase one of FTCC training center

By Staff Report, posted 4 years ago

Fayetteville Technical Community College will host a “Topping Out” ceremony at the FTCC-Cumberland County Regional Fire & Rescue Training Center site at Tom Starling Road on Monday. 

The ceremony will commemorate the placement of the final steel beam in the approximately 24,000-square-foot classroom and administration building that will anchor the site. 

Barnhill Contracting Co. will be putting the beam in place, and just prior, dignitaries and other attendees will be invited to sign the beam. 

This is the first phase of the project; recently, the North Carolina State budget approved $20 million dollars in funding to go toward the Fire & Rescue Training Center over the next two years.
