Correctional Center Combines Sustainability and Efficiency

摘要

The Goose Creek Correctional Center (GCCC) emulates a small city to better prepare inmates for community reentry upon their release. This medium security prison houses 1,536 inmates throughout the five-building complex. The entire project team was engaged from the onset in an integrated design-build process, which parallels design and construction within the same project schedule. This approach expedites utility work ahead of architecture and system trim-outs. The methodology likely took two years off of project delivery over the traditional design-bid-build method, estimates John Yost, GCCC's maintenance superintendent.
