The new construction of Southern Michigan Bank & Trust’s newest Jackson location is a standout example of innovative design and efficiency. The entire site, from foundations to flatwork and sidewalks, is constructed with concrete, which provides a range of benefits. Concrete was chosen not only for its aesthetic appeal but also for its practical advantages, including reduced lighting and maintenance costs, improved safety, and longer lifespan compared to asphalt. The 800 cubic yards of concrete, varying in thickness from 4 to 8 inches, were carefully selected to create a durable, attractive foundation for the new bank.

The construction process was completed with remarkable efficiency, showcasing the capabilities of the contractor and supplier. The use of concrete allowed for swift completion while ensuring high-quality results that will serve the bank for many years to come. The project schedule was optimized, with fast execution translating into both time and cost savings. The success of this project is a testament to the thoughtful selection of materials and the skillful execution by RW Mercer Company and Shafer Redi-Mix.

This project demonstrates how the thoughtful use of concrete in new construction can lead to enhanced aesthetics, lower costs, and long-term durability. The Southern Michigan Bank & Trust location is now poised to offer lasting value to its owners and the surrounding community, all while highlighting the benefits of modern concrete construction techniques.
