The pod includes 4 half size class room units for mud rooms and storage areas one of which is usedas a special needs class room. Architectural: The portable class rooms were built on site and consist of: exterior wall construction of stucco on wire mesh on buildingpaper on 10mm plywood sheathing on 38mm x 140mm wood studs at 400mm centres with batt insulation and an interiorfinish of two layers of gypsum board (13mm rated & 13mm vinyl covered) over a polyethylene vapour barrier; floorconstruction of sheet vinyl floor finish on 6mm plywood underlay on 16mm plywood subfloor on poly vapour barrier on38mm x 235mm wood joists with batt insulation and a soffit of 7mm exterior grade plywood; roof construction consistingof concrete roof tiles to match the school on 19mm x 89mm wood strapping on 19mm x 89mm counter strapping at400mm centres on roof membrane on 16mm ply deck over perimeter gang nail trusses sloped to the eaves with 250mmloose fill insulation and an interior finish of gypsum board over a poly vapour barrier with T-bar acoustic ceilings andtextured gypsum board ceilings. The central roof area are flat with SBS roofs and sloped insulation; the foundationsconsist of 400mm diameter reinforced concrete friction piles 5.3m and 6m long with pile caps carrying 130mm x 418mmGlulam beams. Electrical: The portable classrooms are equipped with power, data, telephone, paging, fire alarm devices, and lighting. Power is fedfrom the main building into each portable equipped with 100 Amp, single phase, 3 wire, 120/208V Commander panel.Data, telephone, paging, and fire alarm devices are tied to the main building systems. Lighting is T8 fluorescent lampsand electronic ballasts. The connecting corridor to the portable class rooms has emergency lighting installed. Theportable classrooms are provided with battery pack emergency lights. Mechanical: Each portable class room has a natural gas Carrier Model 58DH0075-GC forced air furnace rated for 92,000 btuh input.The furnaces have mix air control and 1" pleated filters. There are also roof mounted exhaust fans for each class room.

Consequences of Deferral:Potential reduced lifecycle of portables and health issues islikely. Potential furnace failure (1970/1982 portables) Potentialsafety hazards at exit stairs.

There is a barrier free route from the parking area at the front of the school to the main entrance with a curb cut.

There is a barrier free concrete ramp with painted steel pipe handrails to the main school entrance. The main entrancedoors have an automatic opener with interior and exterior push plates.

Interior circulation is barrier free throughout the school. There is an interior concrete ramp with rubber floor finish andwood hand rails on steel posts down to class room 121a.

Consequences of Deferral:The rooms will continue to be hot and uncomfortable to theoccupants.

There are boys and girls barrier free wash rooms with extra large toilet compartments with stainless steel grab bars andvanities with undercut sections and lower sections. There is also a special needs wash room with a person lift for transfer to and from wheel chairs.

A 2004 consultant's report identified asbestos content in sheet flooring in the science preparation room now used forstorage. The report also indicated the potential asbestos containing materials in pie fittings in wash rooms and kitchenareas. The consultant's report also recommended staff training in the management, handling and appropriate disposal ofasbestos containing materials. School division staff displayed an awareness of the dangers of exposure to asbestosfibres and are familiar with abatement requirements.

Lights in the school have been upgraded to T8 lamps with electronic ballasts. The 2004 consultant's hazardous materialssurvey report indicated that all light ballasts should be checked for PCBs content when they are removed and disposed ofappropriately.

There was no mould reported nor observed during the building audit.

A 2004 consultant's hazardous materials survey of the school indicated the presence of asbestos in sheet flooring, smokedetectors in the portable class room corridors containing radioactive matter, lead pint on lockers, doors and frames. Theconsultant recommended managing that the asbestos flooring, lead paint and radioactive material be managed in placeand if removed during building projects for upgrading or maintenance should be recycled or disposed of according toprovincial and federal regulations.
