About
"As part of DC Public School’s Capital Improvement Plan, Bard High School was identified as a facility needing full renovation and modernization. The four-story building was transformed from an open-plan elementary school to a state-of-the-art, 21st century high school facility. The modernization includes a new basketball court, track and sports field, a black box theater, and a media center lounge. During the design phase, CMTA worked extensively with the architect to calculate what wall types would be the most effective solution for the renovation. We analyzed R-values, infiltration rates, constructability, and life cycle costs to select an optimized, energy-efficient envelope."
