Abstract: |
The Austin Company, a carpentry and contracting business, was founded in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1878 by Samuel Austin. Austin
became known for his quality work, and by 1904 incorporated his business as the Samuel Austin & Son Company. Wilbert J. Austin,
Samuel's son, devised "The Austin Method," a unique bundling of engineering, construction, and design services intended to
streamline the building process, as well as a model for a "controlled conditions" plant, a major improvement over the hot,
stifling factory environment of the day. The Austin Company grew rapidly during World War I and was able to stay solvent following
the stock market crash of 1929, mostly due to the firm's major contract to build the Gorky Automobile Plant in Gorky, Russia.
Business saw another increase during World War II and again during the post-war years as the company branched out beyond industrial
construction to build department stores and retail shopping centers, including the Severance Center in Cleveland Heights,
Ohio. Overseas operations flourished in western Europe, Australia, and Argentina. Throughout the 1970's and into the 1990's,
the Austin Company faced a decline in business. In 1984, the Company was purchased by the National Gypsum Company. Following
National Gypsum's bankruptcy, the Austin Company was purchased by the Kajima USA Group. As of 2017, the Austin Company continued
to maintain its headquarters in the Cleveland suburb of Mayfield Heights. The collection consists of acquisition records,
Board of Directors minutes, correspondence, stock plans, division reports, business plans and reports, presentations, stock
ownership materials, as well as 16mm film, and audio and video tapes documenting various projects, company meetings, and oral
history.

Biography of Biography or History
The Austin Company (f. 1878), a carpentry and contracting business, was founded by Samuel Austin (1850-1936), a young carpenter
who had left his native England for the United States after hearing about the Chicago fire of 1872, expecting that the city
would need skilled craftsmen to help it rebuild. After stopping in Cleveland, Ohio, to visit friends from his hometown, Austin
decided to settle in Cleveland instead. He quickly became known for quality work, and in 1904 he and his son Wilbert J. Austin
(1876-1940) incorporated as The Samuel Austin & Son Company, an engineering and construction firm focused mainly on industrial
plant projects. Their first major construction project was the National Electric Lamp Association in East Cleveland in 1912.
During this period, Wilbert J. Austin devised "The Austin Method," a unique bundling of engineering, construction and design
services intended to streamline the building process. In 1914, Austin & Son introduced four prefabricated building plans for
clients to choose from; this added a new dimension of efficiency to the construction process. In 1916, the company name was
changed to The Austin Company, Engineers and Builders. Wilbert J. Austin also devised the "Controlled Conditions" plant, which
was a major improvement over the hot, stifling factory environment of the day. Such a plant controlled factors like light,
noise, temperature, and humidity to create a better working environment and reduce production costs.
The efficiency of The Austin Method ensured that The Austin Company grew rapidly during World War I, as the defense industry
burgeoned. Following the end of the war, Austin opened its first overseas office in Paris, France, to take advantage of Europe's
need to rebuild. The Austin Company also opened several field offices in the United States during this period.
This rapid growth came to a halt following the stock market crash of 1929. Fortunately, however, Austin signed a major contract
to build the Gorky Automobile Plant (Gorkovsky Avtomobilny Zavod abbreviated GAZ) and accompanying Socialist workers' village
in Nizhny Novgorod (renamed Gorky), Russia. This project essentially enabled The Austin Company to survive the Great Depression.
During this period of slow business, The Austin Company also refocused its efforts from construction to research and development,
introducing insulated steel buildings and porcelain-enamel service stations, which became important to the rapidly growing
petroleum retail industry.
The Austin Company saw a dramatic increase in business during World War II, picking up numerous construction jobs from defense
clients such as Boeing, Consolidated Vultee, and the United States Navy. The invention of the H-section welded truss, which
provided a ready solution to some significant engineering problems, contributed to a reduction in construction costs - and
thus a corresponding increase in business.
As the United States industrial economy grew during the post-World War II period, so did The Austin Company's client list.
Austin's contributions to the pharmaceutical and broadcasting industries were particularly significant, as were its contributions
to the growth of department stores and the retail industry, notably Montgomery Ward and the Severance Center in Cleveland
Heights, Ohio. Overseas operations continued to grow throughout the 1950s, particularly in western Europe, Australia, and
Argentina.
Business slowed from the 1970s through the 1990s, as once profitable domestic and international field offices began to close.
Exceptions included Austin's work for computer-related industries and a major project in Japan, the Kansai International Airport.
In 1984, The Austin Company was purchased by the National Gypsum Company; the move was engineered by National Gypsum in an
effort to stay afloat. In 1990, ownership of Austin was transferred to the National Gypsum Company Settlement Trust, after
National Gypsum was forced to declare bankruptcy due to compensation paid to victims of asbestos-related diseases. In 2005,
The Austin Company was purchased by the Kajima USA Group. Although business has declined since the heyday of World War II,
Austin still maintained its headquarters in the Cleveland, Ohio, suburb of Mayfield Heights as of 2017.
