This was an existing football facility that was nearly 40-year-old. We demolished all of the existing buildings as well as the existing concrete bleachers and running track. We built a new three-story pressbox complete with men’s and women’s restrooms, a concession stand and an observation deck. On the visitor side we built a new concession and restroom facility with an observation deck. We also installed a 3,600 seat aluminum bleacher system. We re-paved the track and added a rubber surfacing with new striping.

This was a new middle school complete with a cafeteria, kitchen complex, media center, office and guidance areas, band, choral, technology and art room spaces. It also has a full size gym, multipurpose room, locker room and 37 classrooms with 9 science labs and 9 prep rooms. The project was 60% load bearing masonry with bar joist and a built-up roof. The other 40% was a metal roof on metal trusses.

This project is a state of the art career center for Lexington-Richland School District 5. There are top of the line finishes and furnishings throughout this facility. The center includes a multi-purpose space with retractable seating, a full-service teaching kitchen, and high bay labs of all varieties.

Chapin Middle School opened its doors in August of 2015. A traditional Design-Bid-Build, Edcon worked closely with District Five, Cumming and Quackenbush Architects to see this project to completion through a very tight schedule. The final product is a beautiful new, two-story middle school with high end architectural finishes and features. Edcon managed all phases of construction as the general contractor, with the exception of sitework.

Additions to LMES included 12 classrooms, kitchen, cafeteria, music and art rooms. The historic renovations of the 100-year-old building included a multipurpose room, media center, two computer labs, auditorium, toilets, guidance and office spaces. The new two-story classroom wing was load bearing masonry with bar joists and a shingle roof. We oversaw all phases of construction.

This new high school included a cafeteria, kitchen complex, media center, office and guidance areas, fine arts wing, full size competition gym and auxiliary gym, visitor and home locker room complex, multipurpose room with stage and approximately 56 classrooms with seven science labs, seven prep rooms, and 14 science classrooms. The project is load bearing masonry with bar joist and single-ply roof. The classroom wings are two stories. The reason for the cost increase is that the owner-furnished geo-thermal well field was eliminated, and we provided new boilers and chillers.
