El
Dorado High School Construction Update |
By David Wagner,
On-Site Project Manager
•
Work since April 1st has been generally site and demolition related. The
construction company fenced the area around the demolition site (the old
commons, auditorium, classrooms, offices and kitchen). They boarded the
access doors from the old commons to the gym. Demolition is progressing
from west to east with the old auditorium, wood shop, and administration
offices now razed. Workers are recycling materials from the building when
possible. Demolition of the old facility will continue through the end
of May.
• In addition, workers have installed site lighting
on the west main entrance drive and the parking lot south of the activity
center. The permanent lighting fixtures for the student parking lot will
not be installed until Phase II is complete. Workers relocated the fire
hydrant in the rear activity center parking lot to a location outside
the parking lot. The cooling system for the new classroom addition has
been started up and is now operational when needed.
• Areas around the classroom addition, on the east
and south sides of the vo-tech building and areas between the roadway
and the baseball and football fields have been seeded. In addition, new
sidewalks have been poured south of the vo-tech building, into the boys’
team locker room stair landing and to the door on the south side of the
activity center for Gym 3. They also poured four splash blocks around
roof drains on the south side of the classroom addition and one at the
current entrance to the temporary office.
