C.D. Henderson Construction Group, the general contractor for the Southwest Airlines General Use Building, trained a number of its employees to be Green Advantage certified or a LEED-accredited professional in anticipation of construction of the airline’s first LEED project.
The 55,000-sq-ft industrial building is divided roughly into thirds and includes a cargo area for bulk air-freight shipping, a provisioning area for the onboard food and beverage service and a ground-support equipment area to serve all non-flying equipment for the airline.
