| Designer and Owner Comments: |
| Designer Comments: The bidding process for the county elementary schools offered the owner a range of choices: from maximizing economy by accepting a Base Bid minimizing the cost per square foot, to maximizing quality by adding Alternate Bids. As a special note, county school district mandated 18 students/class in K-1. 1st Grade classrooms are sized at 850 sq. ft. to reflect this size. Working in concert with the owner the architects achieved an economical Base Bid by conducting an exhaustive re-examination of traditional practices in school design and construction methods -- not by eliminating program space or sacrificing construction quality. The Base Bid provides a building complying with N.C. Public Schools Facilities Guidelines. The buildings are non-combustible construction with masonry bearing walls and steel framed roofs. The Base Bid also inclued a durable exterior finish of patterned split-face block with glazed brick detailing, a 48' long skylight in the Main Lobby, and a circus theme dining room with a circus parade mural and a fabric "big top" ceiling. Because of the economies achieved under the Base Bid, the owner was able to accept 20 Alternate Bids including an enlarged drop-off canopy, landscaping, wall coverings, terrazzo, stage curtains and upgraded plumbing, mechanical and electrical systems. |
