Meeting the Challenges of K12 Design

It can be challenging for K-12 architectural designers. They’re often asked to design facilities that are strong, efficient and sustainable, while also having to abide by an unyielding publicly funded budget. However, using prefabricated concrete in the design process can help address all these challenges. Explore Wells' insights into how architects today are designing K-12 schools that are community landmarks and are at once both sustainable and practical by using a blend of structural and architectural prefabricated components.

Achieving ICC-500 Requirements

As more states mandate the ICC 500 standard, prefabrication has become a leading building solution. The resilience and speed of installation makes it a particularly attractive alternative for schools, residential, parking, warehouses and a host of other building types.
