Holder Construction

Today marked a major milestone for the Cobb Convention Center expansion project as we celebrated the topping out ceremony. Before the final beam was raised into place, our team had the opportunity to sign their names on it leaving behind a permanent mark on a project that represents months of hard work, collaboration, and commitment. We’re grateful for every person involved in this project and proud of what has been accomplished together so far. We’re excited to continue the momentum as we move closer to completion. #CobbCounty #CobbConventionCenter

Creating a culture where teams feel empowered to speak up, look out for one another, and stay engaged on safety every day is what drives strong project execution. That culture is built through the partnership and commitment shared between our teams and trusted construction partners across every phase of a project. Congratulations to the Holder Construction team on receiving the General Contractor Safety Award. We appreciate the dedication of everyone involved in continuing to build a safe, respectful, and high-performing jobsite environment.

Associate Spotlight: Arianna Williams, Field Engineer Technician  “One of the biggest challenges I’ve faced at work is communication. Nothing I do is important if I can’t communicate with the rest of my team, so I started learning Spanish. For a year, I immersed myself in the language, watched videos, and learned simple and informative phrases. When I was at work, I would talk to everyone, whether they spoke English or not. Now, some of my coworkers say I’m fluent!” 

Our team recently hosted tours for Clemson University’s Construction Science & Management program and Construction Women’s group as precast erection got underway on April 13. Students had the opportunity to see the project in progress, something they don’t often get to experience, and ask questions while work is actively happening on site. Early exposure like this helps connect the classroom to the field. 

Associate Spotlight: Gabriela Gonzalez, Sr. Project Controls Engineer  “What I like most about my role is the trust and responsibility placed in me. While engineers at every level own their trade and sometimes work independently, stepping into a Senior Engineer role fortifies the level of trust and expectations that your team and leadership have for you.” 

Safety Week Spotlight: Madalyn O'Dell "My favorite part of working with our trade partners is experiencing how maintaining good relationships pays off in dividends. Great relationships establish and maintain culture, make the jobsite more fun, and encourage collaboration to keep workers safe each day.

Safety Week Spotlight: Dominic Carcelli "I was drawn to a career in safety because I like learning more aspects about the job like safety management, culture, and developing others. It drives me to be more successful each day."

On National Skilled Trades Day, we recognize the trade partners behind our work. Their skill, problem-solving, and commitment to safety are what keep our projects moving and our standards high.
