General Motors Corporation
Truck Plant Expansion


Our work was part of the GMT 355 project at General Motors Assembly Plant in Shreveport, LA. It involved the construction of an elevated conveyor trestle that connects the new Body Shop as well as completion of All Trades work for the new General Assembly building. The new conveyor enclosure extends over seven bays of the existing Assembly Building and was constructed by extending the existing main building columns and adding a new floor and roof structure. Significant work on this project occurred during the plant's summer shut-down period and involved modifying the existing roof purlins with new floor beams.

Doster received the following award for this project:

 2002 ABC Excellence in Construction Award for the Alabama Chapter and Mid-Tennessee Chapters
