University of North Carolina at Greensboro School of Education
Scope
Construction of a steel and concrete, five-story classroom building with a predominantly brick exterior that features CMU block and cast stone, and a glass curtain-wall entryway
Exterior sunshades with angled blades adorn the tops of windows allowing light to pass while removing the glare
Roofing materials vary from flat areas with a rubber membrane TPO to peaked areas with a zinc metal roof
Interior includes wood paneling, glass, carpet, tile, linoleum, and acoustical ceiling panels, as well as efficient temperature controls, occupancy sensor lighting, and low-flow water fixtures
Highlights
19 classrooms, one auditorium with 300 seats and another with 100 seats, as well as many offices for faculty and staff
Built on a previously developed site that was once a parking lot, and discarded asphalt was recycled
Rodgers was part of the team responsible for creating the University of North Carolina at Greensboro’s (UNCG) first LEED® certified building, which achieved LEED Gold
New landscape includes drought-resistant plants, bio-retention areas, sand filtration tanks, and brick pavers
