| Designer and Owner Comments: |
| Designer Comments: For the school district, a typical new elementary school has a capacity of 800 students and a �footprint� of 90,000 to 95,000 square feet (measured to outside face of walls), when designed according to their 2005 Design Guide. The goal at the Elementary School was to design an 800-student prototype school, reduce the footprint to 80,000 square feet, and maintain the minimum program areas established in the Design Guide. To accomplish this, the prototype design minimizes non-program area by proportioning classrooms to reduce corridor length, assuring that all corridors are �double loaded�, and providing the minimum number of plumbing fixtures possible by locating them so that no additional fixtures are needed to meet travel distance or assembly area requirements. This prototype also offers two ways of eliminating mechanical rooms. The building can be constructed with a low-slope roof and rooftop package units, or with a high-slope roof and continuous mechanical platforms above the corridors. These platforms provide mounting locations and service access for air handlers and VAV boxes, or for water-source heat pumps. The sloped roof deck is covered with nail-based insulation and can be finished with either standing seam metal or fiberglass shingles. The Hucks Road school has a low-slope roof and rooftop units, the current standard for Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools. The major elements of the building - Classroom wings, Admin/Media, Multipurpose/Dining - are designed such that they can be easily rearranged, altering the shape of the floor plan and the directions from which cars, busses and service trucks approach the building. This prototype plan can be quickly changed to conform to varying conditions from site to site. |
