Construction is under way on the Schwan's expansion project at the Salina Airport Industrial Center.

Here are some fun facts about the wall panels being used as provided by the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/SalinaEconomicDevelopmentOrg/">Salina KS Community Economic Development Organization</a> Facebook page:

●There will be total 509 panels used for the new building

●One truck can carry only one panel at a time with “oversize load” warning per the U.S. Department of Transportation

●Each concrete panel has steel structure built in it and steel is tested for 26,000 PSI pressure. That’s how they become so robust and strong and can withstand any weather conditions.
