Description:
|
| • |
Two out-of-ground additions to an occupied high school, and upgrade to existing building systems |
| • |
Two story, 42,000 sq ft addition housing twenty five classrooms equipped with interactive Smartboards and wireless technology. Science labs with state-of-the-art fume hoods, chemical-resistant workstations, flask scrubbers, ice machines and appliances; computer lab, and teachers' lounge. |
| • |
14,000 sq ft gymnasium with full-sized, NCAA-approved basketball and volleyball courts, new locker rooms, staff offices, bus garages and storage facilities. A high-performance Kalwall translucent building system and curved metal panel roofing system. |
| • |
A landscaped courtyard with colored concrete sidewalks and curved "mushroom" canopies transition between the existing and new structures. |
| • |
The majority of the construction took place while the existing school was occupied, and school activities went uninterrupted. W&M gave special attention to maintaining a safe environment for the Westhill community and successfully delivered the school on schedule. |
