Scope Of Work
Under a contract with the United States Army, Eastern constructed a 26,000 square-foot, two-story addition to the existing reserve building and renovated the maintenance facility. Classrooms, open storage, offices, kitchen facilities and an arms vault were constructed in the new building.
Site plans included the construction of a seismic design masonry wall bearing system, consisting of vertical reinforcing rods placed within the open cells in the block walls and exterior brick walls. In the event of an earthquake, this design prevents the ceiling from collapsing.
