"A project this size requires close coordination to ensure the appropriate products are manufactured and shipped in the correct sequence as this project will be installed in phases," said Carter.
TULSA, OK, July 18, 2018 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Mitchell Metals has been awarded the aluminum covered walkways and overhead support canopies for Deer Creek Public Schools Fourth and Fifth Grade Center located in Edmond, OK. Installation is scheduled to begin during the first quarter of 2019.
Mitchell Metals will partner with local designers and architect to complete the project. Play by Design in Tulsa, OK will install the extruded aluminum walkway covers that were designed by MA + Architects out of Oklahoma City, OK.
"The various canopy styles and sizes require a team approach in creating the shop drawings. We have worked with Play by Design on previous projects, so the benefit is knowing how to create drawings that assist them with an installation that is over 900 miles from our manufacturing facility," said Austin Carter - Managing Director and Senior Engineer at Mitchell Metals.
Because this is not the first time Mitchell Metals has worked with designers at Play by Design, our two teams know how to effectively work together to beautifully craft canopy systems and covered walkways.
Mitchell Metals aluminum canopy system at Deer Park is part of a larger plan which encompasses two new elementary schools and other construction projects within the district as a response to increased enrollment within the Deer Park schools, especially elementary aged students. In August 2016, a construction bond that totaled $169.4 million was passed allowing for expansions and revisions of current structures necessary to accommodate the influx of new students in the district.
