  • Men’s Mental Health Month: “We Must Keep Talking About It”

    Men’s Mental Health Month: “We Must Keep Talking About It” 2024-06-28 Share Share This June we’ve been talking with Pinkard people with unique perspectives on Men’s Mental Health Month, including Safety Manager Dave Ruddy and Project Engineer Bryce Heitsmith . Next month will mark two years since the passing of a former Pinkard employee, who took his own life in July of 2022. He was a beloved part of our leadership team—the kind of guy who lights up a room and would give you the shirt off his back—and his tragic passing shook our company to the core. Even for the people who he worked with regularly, the news came as a complete shock, seemingly without warning. As too often happens, no one saw it coming. This is not an easy thing to talk about. (Out of respect to his friends and family we’ve omitted his name here.) But if there’s one constant theme in the men’s mental health discussion, it is that our very reluctance to talk about these topics is one of the most pervasive reasons why suicide prevention is such a challenging problem. With that in mind, we are wrapping up our month-long series by sitting down with Jeff Kessler, Pinkard’s Director of Human Resources, to discuss this challenging topic and the greater challenges of addressing men’s mental health in construction. Why is men’s mental health a specific issue worth focusing on? For men in Western society, there's a certain stigma associated with asking for help in general. That can manifest in more benign ways, like the classic joke of dad never asking for directions, but it becomes a really big problem when you’re talking about mental health. Particularly among jobs like first responders, military folks, and construction workers, you have this “strap on your boots and you just do it” mentality that can lead to isolation from sharing. Then you look at construction specifically, which is predominantly composed of men, and you start to see this perfect storm of statistical probability where mental health issues and suicide are a real problem. What kind of statistics are you seeing? I’ll list a few. [HR consulting firm] Mercer just came out with their 2024 People Risk Survey, and mental health is the number one concern among Human Resource directors nationally . In the construction industry, 83 percent of people have experienced mental health issues in some form. That’s four out of five of us! When you’re talking about suicide, Colorado has the sixth highest suicide rate in the country . Nationwide, construction workers are twice as likely to die by suicide compared to other professionals, and four times more likely than the general population. From the standpoint of the pandemic, we’ve sort of entered this era of “permacrisis,” where it feels like it’s always one thing after another. Last year there was a 65 percent increase in mental health leaves of absences across the US. And so the issue is: how do we get people help? Not only because it's the right thing to do from a cultural standpoint, but from a business standpoint. It has a real impact on productivity, both in the form of absenteeism and “presenteeism,” where someone is there but they're not engaged, which leads to safety issues and accidents on the job. Why does mental health seem to be worse in our industry? Part of it is the “I'm just going to do it and not talk about it” mentality. Part of it is that construction workers work hard physically, which means there is a lot of pain associated with work, especially as you get older. And of course when you’re dealing with the deadlines and budget inherent to our industry, there’s a huge component of stress. When one or more of these issues flares up and combines with what might be going on in someone’s personal life—be it relationship troubles, financial troubles, loneliness, depression—the mental and emotional toll can just domino. It’s rarely one thing. Do you see a generational difference? Yeah, we do. The statistics say that Gen Z is 1.9 times more likely to suffer from mental health issues than other generations, but they’re also more likely than older workers to trust and utilize the mental health resources that a workplace provides. It’s sort of a chicken and egg question as to whether younger people are actually experiencing more mental health issues or whether they’re just being open about it due to it becoming less stigmatized. How does substance abuse play into men’s mental health? There’s definitely a culture of self-medicating. That can be due to mental or physical pain. Substance abuse among construction workers is 14.3 percent, versus 9.5 percent in general . Nearly one in six construction workers say they have five or more drinks in one sitting on at least five occasions per month, which is the definition of alcohol abuse. So what is Pinkard doing to help? With the help of AGC [Associated General Contractors], we’ve put together a robust mental health program. This includes providing our employees numerous mental health services through Magellan EAP [Employee Assistance Program], Youturn Health, and Cigna Behavioral Health, as well as trying to raise awareness in the industry in general, such as what Dave Ruddy has done with putting up suicide prevention stickers in our porta-potties . One of our biggest internal strategies is leadership engagement. [Pinkard president] Tony [Burke] has been very active in trying to create an organization where our leadership openly and regularly talks about mental health in order to normalize it and reduce the stigma. That’s huge, because it doesn't really matter if you have a lot of resources if people are too ashamed to use them. Like Bryce mentioned , we staff our projects to ensure people don’t burn out. And we really, really stress making sure people take vacations in order to recharge, which is a harder sell than you might think. Oftentimes, especially when it comes to superintendents who feel so responsible for a job, you almost have to force them out the door to take a vacation for their own good. Did losing a Pinkard team member to suicide change things? Because of the statistics we’ve already discussed, mental health and suicide prevention were already a focus for us, but we got a big dose of awareness when he passed. It was no longer an abstract concept, and it probably woke some people up. The biggest lesson for me is how well hidden these mental struggles can be. He was this beloved, charismatic figure, and no one at Pinkard had any idea that he was in so much pain. He was superman at work, but we just don't know what factors outside his work life were at play. Had he made it known he was struggling so deeply, so many people would have dropped everything to help him. That is why we must keep talking about it. What are some of the warning signs to look out for? Look for signs of despair. You might notice them giving away stuff or talking about firearms in a certain manner. If someone says something like, “Nothing matters,” “No one cares,” “I’m giving up,” or “I may not be here tomorrow,” they might be trouble. If we’re worried about someone, what can we do? When you notice someone acting that way, one of the best things you can do is just talk to them about it directly, rather than downplay it or pretend to ignore it. A lot of people think, Oh, I'm not going to ask if they're thinking of hurting themselves because that might make them do it, but that’s not the case. The idea is to actually say, “Hey, I really care about you. Are you thinking about hurting yourself?” They can be surprisingly honest when you ask that. Depending on how bad it is, you can either keep talking to them, encourage them to call 988 [the national Suicide Hotline] right away, or call 911 yourself if it’s an emergency. Should we talk to HR? Especially if you’re not comfortable confronting a coworker you’re worried about, you can always come to us. If we see someone who is really spiraling, we will sit down with them and say, “Look, we care about you. Why don’t you talk to someone?” We’ll get them an evaluation call with Magellan EAP, and then we’ll duck out. We stay out of their business from there, but we will get information back from Megellan that says, “They have a treatment plan,” or "This person is okay. They just needed a tool that we've already provided them with.” YOU MATTER: If you or someone you know is struggling with mental health, we urge you to call or text “988” to reach the national Suicide & Crisis Lifeline , where you can confidentially talk with a trained crisis counselor 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

  • Curated Urban Living Project, akin Tennyson, Tops Out in Berkeley 

    Curated Urban Living Project, akin Tennyson, Tops Out in Berkeley 2024-05-24 Share Share Revesco Properties and Alpine Investments (RPAI), along with Pinkard Construction and Santulan Architecture, announced today that they have topped out at akin Tennyson. Located at the corner of 46th Ave. and Tennyson St. in Denver's Berkeley neighborhood, the new mixed-use development project will offer an elevated and welcoming living experience that blends with the neighborhood’s local culture. On track to be completed by the end of 2024, akin Tennyson will feature 8,500 square feet of restaurant and service retail space, 97 covered parking stalls, and 84 upscale residential apartment homes with sought-after amenities. These amenities include a nearly 2,000 square foot ground-floor retail patio space, a large resident rooftop terrace with sweeping mountain views, three resident courtyards with various programming and seating areas, a state-of-the-art lobby with a pool table, coffee bar and fitness center, and custom art pieces from local artists. According to Pinkard’s Project Manager Derek Stathis, “The rooftop amenities are some of the most impressive I've ever seen, with two massive built-in hot tubs, multiple fire pits, a deluxe outdoor kitchen, outdoor televisions, and sweeping views of Berkeley Park and the Rocky Mountains. It’s a challenging build, but it’s going to be an incredible place to live, and we're all going to be proud of it when it’s done.” Stathis explains, “It is a very tricky project in the way it's designed and built, with a complex exterior skin that adds a ton of exterior details and material types,” noting the additional challenges inherent in a tight, lot-to-lot site on two major streets with very little access. To mitigate the project’s impact on the neighborhood, Pinkard has maintained an information plan to provide updates on street shutdowns and other work affecting residents. “We are trying to be really good neighbors and minimize any inconveniences,” said Stathis. Over the holidays, Pinkard Safety Manager Dave Ruddy dressed as Santa Claus for the daycare across the street. More recently, Pinkard assisted Centennial Elementary by providing a forklift to unload new bike racks, allowing the school to order additional racks with the money saved. “The vision for this development is not only to provide a place to live but also to create a place for community gathering at the northern end of Tennyson Street,” says Kevin Cosgrove, Manager of Construction & Development, with Alpine Investments. “We are grateful to the many partners involved in bringing our vision to this stage and look forward to the successful completion of this project.” akin Tennyson is the second of four upcoming RPAI projects that will operate under the akin (“uh-kin”) brand, geared toward a sophisticated, urban-minded resident while elevating each local neighborhood by creating an elegant and timeless living experience. While exterior and interior aesthetics and amenities will vary per location, each will draw upon the same brand foundation: a distinctly urban recipe of design, wellness, culture, service, and connection to the neighborhood. This past February, RPAI and Pinkard Construction topped out on akin Golden Triangle. Boasting 98 multifamily units and amenities, the 12-story luxury boutique high-rise in Denver’s Golden Triangle neighborhood is also anticipated to finish by the end of the year.

  • Pinkard Construction Awarded Bay Aquatic Park Renovation

    Pinkard Construction Awarded Bay Aquatic Park Renovation 2024-04-30 Share Share Pinkard Construction has been awarded the renovation project for the Bay Aquatic Park Phase IV in Broomfield. Project cost is estimated at $9 million and will include the removal and replacement of the primary leisure pool, family slide, body slides, and slide plunge pool, along with the addition of deck space, shade structures, and a new mechanical building. Pinkard was the general contractor for the original aquatic park when it was first built in 1991. Additionally, it was the first community water park in the Denver metro area, and due to age, condition, and updated health and building codes, the facility needs renovation. In 2022, BHA Design, Inc. and their team, including Counsilman-Hunsaker, were selected to design the project. Schematic design drawings were submitted in September 2022, and the project paused while additional funding was secured. Currently, the design is progressing toward the delivery of final construction drawings. "We are thrilled to have been awarded this project," said Tony Burke, president of Pinkard Construction. "We have a long history of successful pool construction projects in Colorado, and we are excited to bring our expertise to the renovation of Broomfield Bay Aquatic Park. Our team is ready to work closely with BHA Design, Inc. and the City and County of Broomfield to deliver a high-quality project that will benefit the community for years to come. It’s very rewarding to be able to come back over thirty years later and work once again on a project that the community has enjoyed so much. Many of our current employees remember coming here as kids." “Pinkard Construction has been invaluable during the preconstruction phase by helping to ensure constructability and that cost-saving measures are captured in the final design,” said Brian Graham, capital improvement program manager for Broomfield. Design work is anticipated to be completed in Spring 2024. The intent is to close The Bay Aquatic Park for construction in August 2024, with the objective to reopen the Bay Aquatic Park in July 2025, to ensure a partial Summer 2025 season at The Bay.

  • Pinkard Completes Preconstruction Phase of Buffalo Run Golf Course Clubhouse Expansion

    Pinkard Completes Preconstruction Phase of Buffalo Run Golf Course Clubhouse Expansion 2024-04-03 Share Share Rendering courtesy Z DESIGN GROUP Pinkard Construction has just completed comprehensive preconstruction services for the City of Commerce City’s $13.8 million Buffalo Run Golf Course Clubhouse expansion. The seven-month preconstruction effort included close collaboration with owner’s representative Wember, Inc and architect Z Design Group, focusing on keeping the project in budget while closely adhering to the existing architectural style and city design standards. Commerce City Director Of Parks, Recreation, & Golf Chad Redin: “This project has taken an incredible amount of creativity, effort, and patience to get to the point where we can start construction. The Pinkard team has been amazing throughout the preconstruction effort. They have been reliable and resilient and continue to amaze and define quality construction standards. It is reassuring knowing we have Pinkard in our corner.” Construction scope for this $13.8 million project will include a renovation / addition to the existing 11,500 sf clubhouse and will add 5,500 sf of additional space including a two-story addition with a rooftop terrace/deck area and bar. Other new clubhouse space will include an elevator, an IT room, lobby, and expanded dining space. Renovation scope includes a full gut and renovation of the commercial kitchen with associated mechanical, electrical, and plumbing upgrades. Extensive utility re-routes and upgrades to new and existing buildings will require intensive collaboration with golf course operations to ensure pedestrian and vehicular safety while coordinating infrastructure upgrades. Other work includes various bathroom and office renovations and construction of a new maintenance storage building. The golf course will remain fully operational during construction, but the clubhouse and restaurant will be closed. Pinkard is assisting Buffalo Run Golf Course with office and personnel relocations during construction. A food truck will provide dining services for golf course patrons during construction. The original Buffalo Run Golf Course clubhouse was constructed in 1994 and was partially renovated in 2016. Pinkard was awarded the project in late July 2023.

  • CSU Behavioral Sciences Building | Pinkard Construction | Colorado

    CSU Behavioral Sciences Building Fort Collins, CO, USA Colorado State University 92,912 Sq. Ft. Higher Education, Office, LEED Gold, Administration, State of Colorado Contract, Classrooms, Occupied, Ground Up, Renovation The new Behavioral Sciences Building office facility contains approximately 25,000 sf of office space on three floors, along with classrooms, lecture halls, group study spaces, a large wi-fi study lounge, and a partial basement. Pinkard performed extensive quality control, constructability analysis, and in-house Building Information Modeling (BIM) services to construct CSU’s newest “gateway” office and academic building. Thanks to very few change orders and aggressive contingency management, we were able to return over 87% of the bidding contingency and 50% of the construction contingency to the owner prior to construction completion. To ensure quality on 54,000 sf of raised flooring, Pinkard constructed a mock-up that incorporated key details and penetrations. Meetings were held to instruct crews on procedures and expectations for proper installation. Pinkard assigned a full-time QC person to inspect caulking details at the perimeter of the system and all penetrations to ensure air-tightness. During construction, the floor was protected with masonite laid over sheets of plastic. Mock-ups for exterior stone, window, and curtain wall interfaces helped Bennett Wagner & Grody Architects (BWG) and CSU decide on stone patterning and color, and to refine watertight details. The weekly site walks with CSU and BWG, sometimes lasting three or more hours, were valuable in identifying deficiencies and correcting them in real time.
