National Rail Car Manufacturing Facility

National Alabama Corporation

Yates Construction and our joint-venture partner provided construction services for the National Alabama Corporation manufacturing facility. Located on a 640-acre site, this 2.2 million SF facility includes a railcar manufacturing facility, an administration building, two employee facilities, and a 250-car rail yard. The project required moving 2.9 million cubic yards of earth, erecting 25,000 tons of structural steel and metals, and pouring 75,000 cubic yards of concrete. At the time of construction, the plant was North America's largest railcar manufacturing facility. It is built to LEED® Silver Certification standards and was the largest facility registered under the LEED® Green Building Rating System.
