Metal yields economical solution

摘要

To meet budget, project duration and design goals, Emc2 Group Architects Planners PC designed Gadsden Elementary School District 32 Administration Center in San Luis, Ariz., with a metal building system. The metal building system was specified, in part, to meet the owner's budget requirements for the project. The project started as a concrete-masonry-unit (CMU) structure with a thermoplastic olefin (TPO) roof system. It became over budget and was in jeopardy of being canceled. The metal building system and metal roof put the project back in line with the owner's budget.
