Stalco Construction serves as general contractor for the expansion and renovation of the Long Beach High School. |
|
The project encompasses construction of a new, three-story, 20,000-square-foot addition to the main building, 100,000 square feet of interior renovations and functional re-programming within the existing three-story school structure, exterior renovations, demolition of a separate pre-K building, and construction of new outdoor sports facilities, including six professional-grade tennis courts and a football field with FieldTurf synthetic sport surface, lighting and spectator bleachers. |
|
The construction team faces numerous logistical and technical challenges related to the location of the site and work taking place in and near an occupied school. The addition is located a mere 30 feet from Reynolds Channel, which causes a very high ground water level that needs to be remediated continuously during the excavation and foundation phases. |
|
The addition’s structural and foundation system incorporates 128 auger cast piles, pile caps, grade beams, shear walls, concrete columns and beams, pre-cast concrete plank floors and pre-cast concrete plank roof structure. The addition will house regular and special education classrooms, media and audio-visual facilities and offices. Parking spaces will occupy the ground floor. The façade will feature colored architectural cement board panels as a rain screen and high efficiency curtain wall and windows with anodized aluminum frames. |
