Clark University - needed a Student Recreation Center but had real estate problems involving parking in conflict with the proposed building. We designed a three story parking garage on the steeply sloping land which allowed direct access to each level without ramps. We then constructed the Recreation center on the top of the garage. The building measured 195' on each side and contained 3 basketball courts, a 165 yd track and a pool 25 yards by 6 lanes. On different levels are locker rooms, classrooms and a wrestling/weight room. In order to meet the schedule we began the construction in December and constructed the superstructure of the garage in pre-cast concrete. Severely cold winter conditions (-20 degrees F) caused us to heat the concrete grout at the base of the concrete columns by expendable electric heating cables.
