Pare provided site\/civil, environmental, geotechnical, and traffic engineering as well as regulatory permitting services for the design of the new $40M, 3-story, 95,000-SF Henry J. Winters Elementary School which is designed to provide a STEAM-focused education to 640 students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To facilitate construction on a fast-paced timeline, Pare prepared an early sitework demolition package. A complete geotechnical program was performed to characterize the subsurface conditions and provide bearing capacity recommendations to the structural engineer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pare performed environmental investigations that revealed contaminants in the soil which, while generally low, exceeded residential direct exposure criteria and were pervasive throughout the site. Pare filed a Notification of Release with the RI Department of Environmental Management. Because the site is located within a designated Environmental Justice area, Pare completed a public meeting, which was advertised in three different languages. Pare prepared a Site Investigation Report and a Remedial Action Work Plan for the site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Site design included layout and grading of the site, hydraulic and hydrologic modeling, design of a low-impact drainage system, and coordination and design of utilities. A new stormwater management system provides water quality treatment and groundwater recharge to runoff generated at the site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The project incorporates energy-efficient and healthy living design standards to qualify for NE-CHPS certification.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"market":[11],"class_list":["post-3172","project","type-project","status-publish","hentry","market-education"],"yoast_head":"\n
