Data Centers
High-security data center facilities with specialized concrete construction for critical infrastructure Provided by professional concrete contractors throughout Texas.
Data centers represent the most critical infrastructure projects, requiring concrete construction that supports massive computing equipment, provides environmental stability, and ensures 99.999% uptime reliability. Inner Loop Construction delivers specialized concrete solutions for data center construction throughout Texas, creating facilities that maintain precise environmental conditions while supporting the heavy loads and vibration requirements of modern computing infrastructure.
Texas data centers demand concrete systems engineered for equipment racks, cooling systems, and backup power infrastructure. We design raised floor systems, equipment pads, and vibration-controlled foundations that support server installations while maintaining the thermal and environmental stability required for optimal computing performance. Our construction expertise ensures data centers operate with maximum efficiency and minimal downtime.
Data center construction involves complex coordination between concrete work, electrical systems, and environmental controls. We work with data center engineers to understand cooling requirements, equipment layouts, and redundancy needs. Our Texas-based projects incorporate regional considerations including seismic requirements, energy efficiency standards, and disaster preparedness specific to critical infrastructure.
From colocation facilities to enterprise data centers, we deliver concrete construction that supports modern computing operations. Our projects include specialized foundations for generators, vibration isolation for sensitive equipment, and concrete systems designed to support future technology upgrades. We understand that data centers are mission-critical facilities requiring construction that exceeds standard building requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the floor requirements for data center equipment?
Data centers require raised floor systems or slab-on-grade construction with precise flatness (typically FF 30-50) to support equipment racks and cable management. Concrete must support concentrated loads up to 2,500 lbs per square foot while maintaining level surfaces for proper cooling and equipment installation.
How do you handle vibration control for sensitive computing equipment?
Data centers require vibration isolation for servers, storage systems, and precision equipment. We design concrete foundations with proper mass, damping systems, and isolation joints to prevent vibration transmission that could affect data integrity or equipment performance in Texas facilities.
What concrete specifications support backup power systems?
Generator foundations require concrete designed to support heavy equipment loads (50,000+ lbs) with vibration isolation and fuel spill containment. Concrete must accommodate fuel delivery systems, exhaust routing, and maintenance access while meeting environmental regulations for Texas data centers.
How do you design for data center cooling systems?
Data center concrete construction must support cooling infrastructure including raised floors for air distribution, equipment pads for CRAC units, and trenches for piping systems. Concrete surfaces must maintain thermal stability and support the weight of cooling equipment throughout Texas facilities.
What seismic considerations affect data center construction in Texas?
Texas data centers must meet seismic requirements for equipment protection and structural integrity. We design concrete foundations with proper reinforcement, expansion joints, and equipment anchorage systems to protect critical infrastructure during seismic events and ensure continuous operation.
