Disaster Recovery

CSC was the project lead and the structural engineer on this disaster recovery project. An EF4 Tornado hit the 200,000 ft² school in early 2012. While practically all parts of the building were damaged to differing degrees, ~40% was leveled to slab on grade. In order to have the school functional for Fall 2012, full design was completed in 12 weeks, with design, construction, and occupancy in 5 months.
