Jones High School Additions and Alterations Phase A

CTG successfully executed the ambitious Jones High School Additions and Alterations Phase A project in Orlando, Florida. This complex undertaking showcased our expertise in phased construction management, allowing the school to remain operational throughout the entire campus rebuild.

Key Project Details:

Location: Orlando, Florida

Client: URS/Orange County Public Schools

Project Value: $11.9 million

Completion Date: August 2001

Project Size: Two 16,000 sq. ft. buildings, Central Energy Plant, Cafeteria/Hurricane Shelter, and Portable City

Scope of Work:

Our comprehensive responsibilities included estimating, value engineering, procurement of long-lead items, and construction management. The project encompassed:

Construction of two 16,000 sq. ft. buildings: a) Science Building: Featuring state-of-the-art teaching labs with built-in Bunsen burners, acid-resistant countertops, chemical storage units, chemical wash stations, and a ventilated chemical hood in the chemistry lab. b) Computer Building: Housing advanced computer labs with CATV wiring and the latest technology workstations.

Central Energy Plant: Ensuring efficient energy management for the entire campus.

Cafeteria/Hurricane Shelter: A dual-purpose facility completed within a tight five-month timeline.

featuring:

Load Master Roofing system capable of withstanding “Missile Impact”
Emergency generator
Water storage
Hurricane impact windows
HVAC Mechanical and Electrical Upgrades: Enhancing the overall infrastructure of the campus.
Portable City: Providing temporary facilities to maintain educational continuity during construction.

CTG’s innovative phased construction and fast-tracking techniques efficiently delivered complex projects, prioritizing both educational and community needs. The Cafeteria/Hurricane Shelter exemplifies this dual-purpose approach. Phase A’s completion set the stage for future improvements, demonstrating CTG’s expertise in creating advanced learning environments on active campuses.

Implementation process

The Winter Haven Area Transit (W.H.A.T.) facility project, completed in December 2007, followed a comprehensive implementation process that ensured efficient construction and integration of all key elements. The $3.2 million project transformed a 5,979 sq. ft. area into a modern transit hub, blending functionality with Mediterranean design aesthetics. The process involved careful planning and execution of various construction phases, from site preparation to final handover.

Key steps in the implementation process:

Site preparation and concrete foundation laying
Erection of structural framework, including wood trusses and roof decking
Exterior construction featuring stucco finish and tiled roofing
Installation of critical systems: HVAC, plumbing, and fire protection
Interior finishing, including the integration of a local artist’s mosaic design
Development of twelve bus bays and surrounding site infrastructure
