Redding School of the ARts

Redding, CA

Winner of the "Beyond Green High Performance Building Award"

First Place for a new academic complex

SDS is the civil engineer for McConnell Foundation's new campus for the Redding School of the Arts, a Kindergarten through 8th grade visual and performing arts school.

We're proud to be a part of a school that will: enhance the student's learning environment, promote good student and staff health, meet the USGB LEED platinum certification criteria, and create a powerful tool for eco-education.

The project minimizes negative impacts to the site while respecting the site's natural environment and aesthetics; it includes geothermal heating and cooling, extensive storm water quality control measures, and rainwater storage for landscape irrigation.

Sharrah Dunlap Sawyer engineered the 8,363 square foot substation-council chambers project that represents the first phase of what will become a Civic Center complex.

Our work included: topographic and boundary survey, on- and off-site civil construction documents, construction staking, and Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan for the project.

LEED gold certification is being sought. The complex will eventually include a new City Hall, council chambers, library, museum, and community center on the 8 acre property.
