The existing school has approximately 55,745 SF with approximately 4,635 SF being demolished, and the additions have 17,752 SF – all part of a one-story building, though there are multiple levels with a change in elevation of 8’-0” from the main entry down to the existing Gymnasium. Deep Springs Elementary School was originally built in 1963 with major building additions in 1966, 1975, and 1988. The scope of work for the current major construction project includes but is not limited to: selective and building demolition, removal and replacement of mechanical systems including installation of variable refrigerant volume systems, replacement of existing electrical systems, fire protection, fire alarm systems, interior finishes (walls, ceilings, floors and base), door hardware, site improvements and paving, replacement of kitchen equipment and the addition of 17,752 SF of new Administrative Area, Kitchen, interior ramped corridor connection to Gym, Classrooms, Mechanical Room, and secondary entry vestibules. The Decagon wing will undergo a major renovation and will be stripped down to only leave the steel structure. The work effort will be executed in four principle phases beginning in May 2013 and ending in January 2015. The building will be occupied during all phases of construction work.
