General Summary:
The single storey Chestermere Lake Middle School was constructed in 1999 with a building area of 5,697 sq.m.
In 2001, four (4) portable classrooms were relocated to the site and the corridor was extended adding 400 sq.m. to the
school.
In 2002, a new addition was added to the east end of the original building which included new washrooms, storage
space, a janitors room and the relocation of two (2) more portables to the site for an additional area of approximately
395 sq.m.
In 2007, two (2) more portables were attached to the 2002 link with an area of 160 sq.m. The total area of the school is
now approximately 6,655 sq.m.
Structural Summary:
The original school is constructed on concrete pile and concrete grade beams. The roof structure is constructed of a
metal deck supported on OWSJ's supported by exterior load-bearing concrete masonry unit walls and wide flange
beams. The floors in the original building and a portion of the link are concrete slabs on grade. The school was reported
to be of non-combustible construction and is sprinklered, thus roof construction fire proofing was not required.
The relocated portables and link on the east end are supported on concrete foundation walls with a combination of load
bearing wood and steel construction.
The recommended work includes the following:
-fill gap between foundations and sidewalk on the south elevation.
Structural components were observed to be in acceptable condition, overall.
Envelope Summary:
The exterior walls are a combination of concrete block/brick cladding and prefinished corrugated metal cladding. The
roof is a SBS membrane throughout the original school and at the new link.
Most exterior windows and doors are clear anodized aluminum and windows are sealed lites with vented unit. There
are a few painted metal exterior elements including the metal door at the CTS workshop and the beams and columns
at the canopies.
The recommended work includes the following:
- Study to determine remedial measures to leaking SBS roofing and make the needed repairs.
- Provide adequate means to access upper roof.
- Replace sealant on upper clerestorey windows on south and SW corner.
Envelope components were observed to be in acceptable condition.
Interior Summary:
Interior floor finishes are mostly vinyl sheet with carpeting in the library, one computer lab, special education classroom
staff office and staff room. The gymnasium has a pulastic epoxy floor system.

Chestermere - Chestermere Middle School (B2941A)
Interior doors are mostly solid stained birch in painted pressed steel frames with metal doors located at fire
separations and interior vestibules.
There are exposed metal deck ceilings in the art classroom, music room, library, main gathering area, drama and
gymnasium. All classrooms have acoustic ceiling tiles in metal 'T' bar grid systems. There is a large amount of stained
birch veneer millwork in the school.
Recommended work which includes:
- Remove / replace vinyl sheeting on operable partitions between gymnasium and drama room (stage).
- Replace damaged ceiling tiles.
- Modify or replace library charging desk, replace joint sealants.
Interior components were observed to be in acceptable condition.
Mechanical Summary:
The plumbing systems that service the building consist of domestic water distribution, natural gas, storm and sanitary
water piping and plumbing fixtures. Domestic hot water within the building is provided by two natural gas fired self
contained water heaters. Plumbing fixtures in the washrooms consist of terreon lavatory stations and counter top
mounted vitreous china lavatories, wall mounted vitreous china urinals and floor mounted vitreous china water closets.
Janitor sinks are located in selective caretaker rooms. Miscellaneous sinks are located in select classrooms and staff
areas.
Heating is provided primarily by two 808 kW natural gas fired hot water boilers. Two glycol loops are present within
the building. The high temperature loop consists of heated glycol distributed to a heat exchanger and finned tube
radiation. The heat pump loop consists of tempered glycol distributed to heat pumps throughout the building. Heat
rejection of the heat pump loop is provided by one roof mounted fluid cooler unit. Supplemental heating and
ventilation is provided by one rooftop mounted make up air unit. Additional ventilation is provided by various roof
mounted exhaust fans.
The mechanical equipment is controlled by DDC systems.
Fire suppression needs are met by a wet sprinkler system throughout the building.
provided by "ABC" fire extinguishers located throughout the building.
Additional fire protection is
Recommended work from this assessment includes:
-an investigation of issues and needed repairs to the steam (humidification) system.
-returning the steam boiler/humidification system back into service.
Overall the mechanical systems in the building are in acceptable condition.
Electrical Summary:
Electricity is routed to the building from a pad mounted utility supplied transformer. The main electrical distribution
panel is rated at 1600A, 120/208 V, 3 phase, 4 wires. Electricity is fed to secondary electrical sub-panels via wiring in
EMT conduit.
Interior lighting is mainly provided by T8 fluorescent technology throughout the building. Exterior lighting is provided by
metal halide fixtures provided at entrances and locations along the perimeter walls.
Emergency lighting consists of battery powered units throughout. Illuminated LED emergency exit signs are present
throughout the building.
The building is protected by an addressable fire alarm control panel which controls fire alarm bells and strobes
throughout the building. Initiation is activated by sprinkler flow alarms, manual pull stations, heat detectors, and smoke
detectors.
The building has an externally monitored security system, a telephone system, a public address system, television
cable system, and a hardwired Local Area Network.
