About Construction Company
Construction is a broad term meaning the science and art of constructing objects, structures, or other things, and derives from Latin ad via and Old French construction, meaning to construct. To build is the verb: to make (also the noun), and the object is a structure: how a thing is constructed, its nature as a whole. From the root word, "base," a structure can be further developed and modified by adding additions such as walls, beams, treads, joists, etc. The goal of construction is to create something from which something else may be evolved. Some examples of structure are houses, skyscrapers, bridges, buildings, and tunnels. A structure is also a site, area, or setting where work or activity takes place.
Building construction is usually carried out on residential or commercial buildings. Most large buildings can be considered construction projects; however, there are various types of construction company responsible for constructing various types of buildings. There are also different types of businesses that use construction companies to facilitate their operations. In most cases, you will find that the construction company you hire specializes in a particular type of building project so that they can complete the job efficiently. In addition, there are many factors to consider when hiring a construction company, such as their experience in dealing with the task, the type of business they are in, type of equipment they own, etc.
One type of construction project that typically requires the services of a construction company is a major building project. These projects typically require a great deal of planning and preparation. Typically, preparation calls for drawings, blueprints, specifications, and elevations of the project. These plans and blueprints are typically prepared by civil engineering firms. Civil engineering professionals specialize in a specific set of tasks, which include designing and planning construction projects, preparing the construction site, installing the needed equipment, and maintaining the project.
Other construction projects commonly require the services of construction companies are those related to warehouses. Warehouse buildings are typically large buildings that hold materials, food products, or stock that is to be sold. The interior of these buildings are usually filled with equipment that helps in storing and organizing products and items. Warehouses are generally designed to maximize floor space, efficiency, safety, storage, and maintenance of the products within the warehouse. To ensure the effectiveness of the operations of the warehousing organization created, construction companies are usually required to acquire certain building tools and equipment.
Many construction projects involve the repairing or renovation of office buildings or other commercial establishments. The interior of commercial buildings tend to get damaged from various sources such as fires, earthquakes, hurricanes, and other disasters. In order to make the interior of these establishments looking presentable again, it is necessary to hire an organization created to help in the repair or renovation of such commercial establishments. Construction companies that specialize in this field are often referred to as construction managers. The main tasks of a construction manager includes supervising the progress of the repair or renovation of commercial buildings, supervising the installation of new equipment, as well as the hiring of new employees. Construction managers are responsible for ensuring that the needs of their customers are fulfilled.
These construction projects allow the construction company to create structures that are functional and practical. While there are a variety of different specialized construction projects available for both small and large companies, many construction companies choose to operate on a general contractor basis. This allows them to have more freedom to be creative and design unique structures that fit their clients' needs and budget. When operating on a general contractor basis, construction company owners and managers are given more options and can create any type of construction project that will enhance the value of their property.
About Ione
Ione ( eye-OWN) is a city in Amador County, California. The population was 7,918 at the 2010 census, up from 7,129 in 2000. Once known as "Bed-Bug" and "Freeze Out," Ione was an important supply center on the main road to the Mother Lode and Southern Mines during the California Gold Rush.
Ione is the historical home of the Sierra Miwok people, an indigenous people of California. In 1840, the future town site became part of the Mexican land grant Rancho Arroyo Seco in Alta California.
The town is located in the fertile Ione Valley, which is believed to have been named by Thomas Brown around 1849 after one of the heroines in Edward Bulwer-Lytton's drama The Last Days of Pompeii, but conflicting legends and sources for the name exist. During the days of the Gold Rush, the miners knew the town by the names of "Bedbug" and "Freezeout." Unlike other communities in Amador County, which were founded on gold mining, Ione was a supply center, stage and rail stop, and agricultural hub.
The first post office opened in 1852. The town of Ione continued to grow and prosper after its gold rush founding. The first school was built in 1853. The historic Methodist Church was organized in 1853 and the structure was completed in 1862. The first flour mill was built in 1855. The first brick building was built by Daniel Stewart, D. Stewart Company Store, in 1855 for his general merchandise store and is still owned and operated by the same family. In March 1865, Camp Jackson was built nearby, garrisoned by Company D, 2nd California Volunteer Cavalry, who stayed for three months until moving on to a new post.
At the centennial celebration of 1876, Ione had a population of about 600 which included about 100 Chinese who lived in Ione's Chinatown. The town included one public school, four churches, four general stores, one meat market, one laundry, one brewery, a restaurant, millinery shop, an art gallery, six saloons, a drug store and barber shop, and many other business establishments. The centennial also celebrated the completion of the Stockton and Ione Railroad, which had been incorporated in 1873 to build a 40 miles (64.4 km) long narrow gauge railroad from Stockton via Linden to Ione, which operated only until 1876. The centennial celebration was the beginning of what is now known as the Ione Homecoming. This annual celebration has been held during the month of May almost every year since that first Centennial celebration in 1876 and is now held on the second full weekend in May every year.
The City of Ione was incorporated as a General Law City in 1953.
Ione has many landmarks and historical points of interest. Three are listed as California Historical Landmarks:
