Scope Of Work
Gilbane constructed two new high schools for Pickens County under a single construction management at risk contract. This project marked the first time the School District of Pickens County (SDPC) had used construction management at-Risk delivery method, and the SDPC was one of the first school systems in South Carolina to use this delivery method. These schools–Liberty High School and Easley High School–are located on two separate campus sites.
Easley High School, the largest in Pickens County, is situated on a 165-acre site. The 300,000 SF replacement high school included a two-story building with an academic classroom wing complete with science labs, business labs, and family consumer science labs.
The single-story Liberty High School is 208,000 SF and includes an academic classroom wing as well as a self-contained special needs wing, performance auditorium, and cafeteria. The school accommodates over 670 students and 38 teachers towards the school mission to prepare students to be college and career ready for the 21st century.
In addition, both campuses include:
Band practice and storage areas
Athletic complex with football, track & field, baseball, and softball fields
Football and soccer fields with artificial turf
