Tailored Building Systems Wins Judge's Special Building of the Year Award
|
The National Frame Building Association (NFBA) held its annual convention and trade show, Frame Building Expo, February 25-27, 2009 at the Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center in Nashville, Tennessee. During NFBA’s special award session on February 25, winners in 18 categories received plaques for the annual NFBA Building of the Year Contest. The Judges Special Building of the Year Award in the Judge's Award category went to Jim Simon of Tailored Building Systems, Grand Rapids, MI. Tailored Building Systems received the Award for the Lighthouse Academy project, built for Wedgwood Christian Services.
This building will be used as a charter high school run by Wedgewood Christian Services. It is for kids who have been suspended or expelled from a traditional high school. The school gives at-risk students, who have limited educational options, a second chance. This is a two-story post-frame building with a variety of exterior materials: brick, vinyl siding, restoration millwork trims and Landmark 40-year dimensional shingles.
Structural integrity, flexibility in design, speed of construction and cost savings made post-frame the only building choice the Academy would consider.
