Jeffersonville High School Project Overview

The overall project is 44% complete and we have expended approximately $13 million dollars.  The existing roof elevations have been re-roofed with the exception of the 2-story building, thus solving a vast majority of the roof leaks within the building.  Also, a portion of the building is running off the new electrical transformers which were set and energized this past summer.  On October 17th, one of the old transformers will be decommissioned and electrical feeders will be transferred to one of the new transformers.

The new boilers, pumps and water heaters are energized and operational.  The new gas service and meters have been set and are waiting for final transition from the building to the new meter which will be performed on October 17th.  Several classrooms were renovated during the summer months and are being utilized as temporary classrooms while a Southern portion of the 2nd floor is being renovated.

Units A/B - Addition
Erection of exterior and interior masonry is complete.  Interior metal studs and drywall have been erected in Unit A.  Overhead rough-ins for mechanical, electrical and fire protection are approximately 90% complete.  Installation of exterior windows and placement of the roofing system are complete.  Aluminum storefronts will be erected during the month of October.  We are scheduled to turnover this area to the Owner during Christmas Break thus allowing construction trades to occupy the old administration area.

Units B and D, 2nd Floor
Erection of mechanical/electrical overhead rough-ins and the installation of ceiling grid are complete.  Light fixtures are being set within the grid system.  Re-setting of the toilet fixtures in order to meet ADA requirements is complete.  Painting of the classrooms, restrooms and corridor is complete.  Placement of floor finishes has commenced.

Unit E – Main Entrance
The placement of the roofing system, installation of the exterior windows and placement of the EIFS system are complete.  Interior bulkheads have been erected and the installation of the ductwork within the bulkheads is complete.  Overhead and wall rough-ins for electrical rough-ins are complete.  New storefronts will be erected during the month of October thus allowing the installation of interior finishes.

Unit F – Entrance and Cafeteria Expansion
The erection of structural steel and the placement of the concrete slabs are complete for the new entrance and cafeteria expansion.  Erection of metal stud framing and masonry continues along the exterior skin of the building.  The new air handling units and electrical switchgear units have been placed on the mezzanine level and are currently being hooked-up.  Placement of the roofing system is scheduled to commence during the 2nd week of October.

Unit J – Gymnasium and Unit K Auxiliary Gymnasium
The re-routing of roof drains, erecting of new ductwork and the erection of new sprinkler lines are complete.  Installation of new acoustical panels in the Auxiliary Gym is scheduled for Christmas Break.  The expansion of the mezzanine decks within the (2) mechanical rooms continues and is expected to be completed this month.

Exterior Shell of the Building
The erection of the Exterior Insulation Finish System (EIFS) is complete along the East and West elevations of the 2-story building.  The overall placement of the roofing system is 90% complete which is ahead of schedule.  Exterior windows are being installed along the East and West elevations of the 2-story building.
