Do Education Buildings Have to Be Constructed Differently?

Education buildings are different from other architectures in many ways, including the design and the construction phase. The environment in which children spend most of their days learning need to meet special requirements – here are some pertaining to the construction process:

• Proper drainage – education buildings are used by many people at a time and in the case of schools, most of those people are very young. To prevent disease outbreaks and health issues, the drainage systems of education buildings always need to be built using the best materials to prevent any clogging and sewage problems;
• Harnessing natural light – the classrooms, study rooms libraries, laboratories, sports rooms and cafeterias need to be oriented in a way that allows for the efficient harnessing of natural light in all seasons;
• Special attention to heating, cooling and ventilation – the HVAC systems installed in education buildings need to be designed to meet the specific needs of school environments in terms of sizing, durability and efficiency;
• Expandability – ideally, education buildings are constructed on one floor to allow for expansion later if need be;
• Friendly and attractive interior design – the colors and the ornamental elements in school buildings need to be chosen to promote efficient learning, productivity as well as relaxation.  There are builders in Colorado who specialize in educational buildings and should be your first point of contact.
