Tubelite is exhibiting at AIA Expo in booth #4634

Before Oklahoma’s Broken Arrow Public Schools renovated and expanded South Intermediate High School, nearly 200 classrooms throughout the district were in portable buildings. Students and educators were in dire need of permanent space. Upgrading the facility, the $9.4 million project renovated 9,800 square feet and added approximately 33,700 square feet of space. Tubelite’s storefront, curtainwall and entrance systems help convey a sense of connectedness across the large campus, while offering outside views and natural daylight.

South Intermediate High School’s extensive makeover was designed by Perkins+Will. Oklahoma-based Selser Schaefer Architects assisted in reinventing the school’s single-story Modern architecture. Ideal for low-rise applications with contemporary aesthetics, Tubelite’s T14000 Series Storefront, 400 Series Curtainwall and seven, Wide Stile doors were used throughout the campus’ renovation and addition.

Architectural Glass and Metal, Inc. installed more than 390 linear feet of Tubelite’s products, under the guidance of CMS Willowbrook who served as general contractor. South Intermediate High School remained open throughout construction of the project, which started in September 2011 and continued through December 2012. Today, the high school actively serves 1,400 students in grades 9 to 12.

A simple planning strategy was used to integrate the school’s existing structures with the expansion. The design created a courtyard that can be used for impromptu outdoor theatrical plays, as a pre-function space for basketball games, as a space for art projects, or for large all-school assemblies. “The courtyard gives the school a new identity. Visual and layered connections between arts and athletics facilitate a blended approach to community and education,” said Perkins+Will’s principal and k-12 regional practice leader, Patrick Glenn, AIA, REFP, LEED® AP.

Oriented to capture indirect northern daylight, the courtyard provides deep overhangs to block the western and southern sun, while allowing for eastern morning light in the new art room. The art room is part of a massive, 33,700-square-foot multi-faceted performing arts addition. This addition was substantially complete in December 2012. Along with the art room, it houses a centralized theater, media center, art gallery, band hall, orchestra room and a choir rehearsal hall.

Oklahoma limestone topped with a sleek metal panel eyebrow and canopy denotes the performing arts center’s entry. According to Glenn, Tubelite’s products were used extensively throughout the performing arts facility addition. He noted, “Layering a sequence of spaces – outdoor to indoor and protected to open – promotes a hierarchy of arrival and gathering. The design provides a transparent wrapper crafting an indoor/outdoor destination and concentration for arts and the community. The pre-function lobby provides openness and transparency to the courtyard, while becoming a beacon for evening community events.”

On the new academic wing, large amounts of clear glazing continue to promote transparency from indoor to outdoor space. The space includes six state-of-the-art science classrooms, computer labs, administration areas and a teacher planning area. Brick masonry, light-colored exterior plaster and dark bronze anodize on the storefront, curtainwall and entrance systems’ aluminum framing complement the existing architecture.

Supporting educational facilities’ sustainability goals, the aluminum used to produce these systems’ framing can be extruded by Tubelite using EcoLuminum™, a high recycled-content composition. Building upon these environmental attributes, Linetec’s eco-friendly anodize process sends 90 percent less waste to landfills than traditional anodizing. These durable architectural-grade finishes help minimize maintenance and meet the rigorous performance expectations of high school.

The project’s enduring and outstanding design earned a 2013 Built: Design Award from the American Institute of Architects’ Dallas, the chapter’s highest recognition of excellence.

“This project was a joint effort between the architects who brought their design skills to the table for conversations with the teachers and other end users of the facility,” said Michelle Bergwall, chief operating officer for operational services for Broken Arrow Public Schools. “The result is a building that is both beautiful and practical for daily operations.”

The American Architectural Manufacturers Association (AAMA) recently updated a Technical Information Report (TIR) providing metal curtainwall designers with the necessary data to select fasteners for curtainwall framing members and components. AAMA TIR-A9-14 also goes into the process of anchoring curtainwall systems to building structures.

“The updated AAMA TIR A9-14, ‘Design Guide for Metal Cladding Fasteners’ will be even more technically significant to the metal fenestration industry than the original widely used AAMA TIR A9-91, ‘Metal Curtain Wall Fasteners,’” says Tanya Dolby (Kawneer), chair of AAMA’s Curtain Wall Fastener TIR Task Group. “The 2014 release contains new and updated sections that reflect testing and research that occurred over the last 23 years.”

Hydrogen embrittlement is now addressed in the Protection against Corrosion section of the document. Additionally, the new Safety Factors section provides a thorough explanation of how safety factors were derived for the range of fastener diameters.

“The intent is to provide safety factors which are conservative, consistent and simplified throughout the document,” Dolby says. “Updated and expanded information in the Pull-out Strength section includes equations for thick, thin and transition regions, as well as thread stripping of internal and external threads. Also, pull-out strength tables were incorporated from the 2000 addendum.”

Section 20 Fastener Load Tables required the most “behind the scenes” work, says Dolby. These tables were re-worked, re-organized and constructed into Excel spreadsheets with incorporated equations and properties. Every value in the tables links back to several interacting equations.

“I anticipate AAMA TIR A9-14 will continue to be widely used and referenced throughout the curtainwall and cladding industry,” Dolby says.

TIR-A9-14 may be purchased from AAMA’s Publication store.

On May 17, Knutson Construction will celebrate the grand opening of Target Field Station. Connecting transit with culture, the new multi-modal hub and public plaza will provide an iconic gateway to Target Field Stadium, home of the Minnesota Twins.

Hennepin County selected Knutson Construction in May 2012 as part of the multidisciplinary, design-build team working closely with Perkins Eastman and New York-based architect Peter Cavaluzzi, FAIA. Target Field Station is a project of Hennepin County, the Hennepin County Regional Railroad Authority and the Hennepin County Housing and Redevelopment Authority. A mix of federal, state and local sources funded the $79.3 million project. More than half of the project is funded by local government.

“We are proud to celebrate the many partnerships that led to Target Field Station’s success. From concept through completion, our team managed more than 120 on-site contractors to complete the project on time and on budget,” said Dave Bastyr, Knutson Construction’s executive vice president of Minnesota. “This high-profile project will function as a distinctive urban park, transit station and neighborhood gathering space serving the Twin Cities for years to come.”

Target Field Station will welcome 40,000 visitors attending the 2014 Major League Baseball All-Star Game in July 2014. For game day broadcasts and other events, the 29-by-16-foot video board installed on top of the elevator core and can be viewed from the Great Lawn and upper plaza. The entire canopy above the Light Rail Transit (LRT) station platform has enhanced programmable LED lights that can change to any color, beckoning commuters and non-commuters alike.

Located at 417 5th St. and 5th Ave. in Minneapolis, this new distinctive public space will connect 500 trains daily from the Metro Blue LRT (Hiawatha), Metro Green Line LRT (Central Corridor), Northstar Commuter Rail and the future Metro Green Line LRT extension (Southwest). Target Field Station’s more than 104,000 square feet of space also includes a public plaza for year-round special events and activities, green space, a 1,000-seat amphitheater, office space and retail shops, a 286-car underground parking structure, and a transit police facility.

The project broke ground on July 9, 2012 and then proceeded through two of the worst winters in Minnesota’s history. The 2013-14 season was the ninth coldest on record with 50 subzero days as of March 3. Despite the weather related difficulties, the project recorded zero lost time accidents with more than 250,550 hours of construction labor. It also significantly exceeded goals monitored by the Minnesota Department of Human Rights in Disadvantage Business Enterprise, female and minority participation, and Workforce Entry Program new hires and labor hours.

Hennepin County seeks certification from both the State of Minnesota’s B3 Guidelines and the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED® Rating System for Target Field Station’s innovative design that reduces environmental impact. The all-season public plaza’s surfaces will remain clear in winter thanks to more than 23 miles of tubing installed as part of an integrated snow melting system that utilizes excess heat generated by the adjacent Hennepin Energy Recovery Center (HERC) energy plant. Knutson completed construction on the HERC’s 29,430-square-foot building in November 2013.

Within Target Field Station’s landscape will grow 5,422 flowering native plant bulbs, 150 trees and 1,300 shrubs. The site’s natural topography, along with its natural filtering properties and new high-performance streetscape along 5th and 6th Streets, funnels stormwater runoff into a series of cisterns and underground storage systems capable of holding 40,000 gallons. Collected water then is returned to the HERC as part of an initiative by the Watershed District and in support of the project’s sustainability goals.

Some of Target Field Station’s other notable quantities and accomplishments include:
* 8,132 linear feet, approximate length of the LRT station’s canopy fins
* 26,000 cubic feet, approximate volume of geofoam used on the project
* 12,000 yards of concrete placed by Knutson Construction
* 30 miles of electrical conduit installed
* 20 miles of pile driven
* 1,300,000 pounds of rebar installed

In addition to Knutson Construction, key members of the Target Field Station team include:
* Hennepin County, owner and developer of property
* Interchange Project Office, broker for owner
* Perkins Eastman, architect and interior designer

The Union League Boys & Girls Clubs completed the first major upgrade in 90 years on its historic Club One facility in Chicago’s Pilsen Neighborhood. This multi-phased $4.2 million renovation and expansion nearly doubled the facility’s original size and showcases Rockfon® Impact™ ceiling panels. These high-impact, stone wool acoustic ceiling panels are in use throughout Europe, but had not been introduced to the U.S. prior to 2013.

ROCKFON’s team provided multiple ceiling suspension systems, panels and perimeter trim to accommodate the varying purposes of Club One’s new and renovated classrooms, offices, lobbies, corridors and activities areas. The most challenging applications were in the gymnasia. For these areas, ROCKFON® products were provided to create a durable ceiling system that maintains a clean appearance, offers exceptional acoustic performance and withstands regular impact from errant balls and other daily athletic activities.

ROCKFON’s panels integrate with Chicago Metallic’s suspension systems and Rockfon® InfinityZ™ Razor Edge Perimeter Trim to give its ceiling the appearance of being zero-depth. “This combination of panels helped create a very durable ceiling, which is acoustically tuned enough to allow the space to double as an auditorium,” explains Cory Nevins, ROCKFON’s director of marketing for North America.

Rockfon Impact panels achieve Noise Reduction Coefficients of 0.85 and have a high light reflectance with an LR of 0.86. Optimizing natural light may contribute to lowering electronic light loads and reducing cooling costs. The benefits of quiet, daylit interiors are recognized by the U.S. Green Building Council as valued attributes of healthy buildings. Contributing to building’s environmental goals, Rockfon Impact ceiling panels contain up to 39 percent recycled content.

“The ROCKFON system was exactly what was needed for the Union League’s gymnasium. Without [their team], we wouldn’t have even known about it,” shares Antunovich Associates’ project architect, Clark Christensen. “[They] went above and beyond to provide the best solution. …It’s a robust system with a high missile-impact rating so we know it can stand up to balls hitting it. When necessary, the panels can be replaced easily.”

Tandem Construction’s project superintendent, Brian Curtin, adds, “Installing the very first high-impact grid in the U.S. has been a great experience and a neat thing to be a part of.”

Tandem also is credited with creating a dynamic project plan and construction timeline that minimized disruption to Club programming. The first phase in Union League Boys & Girls Clubs’ 19-month project began with the construction of a new four-story, 17,000-square-foot annex adjacent to the main structure. The second phase required a total renovation of the existing 18,000-square-foot facility. Walls between the original and new buildings were opened to connect all four floors.

Completed in June 2013, Club One’s combined space now offers gymnasia, weight rooms, locker rooms, classrooms, a library, a technology center, a dance room, a craft room, a new science laboratory, expanded kitchen amenities, as well as modernized infrastructure, universal design enhancements and updated finishes. The entire facility also is now fully accessible and compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

“Between the new annex and the renovated original structure, we [have] a fully functional, accessible and ADA-compliant building to continue our service of being a beacon of light and a place of refuge for the youth of Pilsen where we’ve been changing lives and building futures for thousands of young people for more than nine decades,” stated Michael Chioros, a trustee with the Union League Boys & Girls Club  and chair of the renovation project.

Christensen summarizes, “This project was about helping others, about rolling up our sleeves and contributing to a worthwhile client. It was really a team effort and a prime example of the whole being greater than the sum of its parts.”
