Creating Safe, Inclusive + Compliant Education Spaces
Today’s educational environments, including K-12 and higher education campuses, must adapt to cutting-edge technology, safety requirements and security standards utilizing available resources. Architects supporting local governments, colleges and universities must align design with necessary education safety elements to protect against risk, fires, active shooters and other hazards.
From constructing a new school or designing a dormitory to planning for unique on-site events, we help you navigate code and standard compliance in all phases of design, construction and occupancy. Our team can also design fire protection, fire alarm; provide inspection and testing; facilitate live and web-based safety training; prepare emergency master plans and conduct fire and other emergency drills. We also offer property conditions assessments for building systems, progressive failure analysis and remediation plans for aging construction.
