The work includes demolition and removal of the existing window-wall systems and associated debris, followed by the installation of 72 new aluminum windows and panels.
The project also includes fabricating support brackets and panels for new air-conditioning units and insulation where required. Disturbed areas will be restored through interior spackling and painting, acoustical-ceiling and floor-tile repairs, masonry repointing, and replacement of brick affected by construction.
The new window and panel systems address the recurring maintenance and safety issues caused by the deteriorated original assemblies. Heavy-commercial-grade aluminum components were selected to withstand the demands of an active school environment, while new flashing and cladding improve weather protection at the openings.
Careful coordination of the window replacement with the existing masonry, ceilings, flooring, interior finishes, and air-conditioning openings allows the work to improve the building envelope without requiring extensive renovation of the surrounding spaces. The completed project will provide safer, more durable windows while improving the school’s appearance and reducing future maintenance needs.
