The project includes installing a new 3-stop elevator in the current 3-story school building. This addition aims to promote equality by ensuring that all eligible students and school staff, regardless of disabilities, have access to the same benefits and opportunities as their non-disabled counterparts.

FMC's responsibilities include providing the structural design and detailing necessary to create a new opening through the existing slab. Additionally, FMC designed the new elevator pit and foundation. Throughout the project, FMC provided construction administration services to ensure smooth implementation.
