Carampangue Foundation Project
Project Overview
One story building, which was designed using a perimeter with masonry walls confined with columns, beams and interior partitions. The roof system consists of exposed timber laminar structure to provide a wider space and follow the Spanish architecture of the original building.
The new additions to this school were planned to accommodate 1,100 students from K to 12 grades. The project included new classrooms, gym, cafeteria, administrative offices, and meeting rooms. The structural design was done incorporating traditional materials such as bricks, timber, and stone facades.
