1 Report run on:January 30, 2006 2:39 PMRECAPP Facility Evaluation ReportWellington Junior High SchoolB3357 AEdmontonReport run on:January 30, 2006 2:39 PMPage 2 of 47B3357 ABuilding Id:Wellington Junior High SchooBuilding Name:EdmontonLocation:13160 - 127 StreetAddress: Area (sq. m): $9,669,033 Replacement Cost:0 Construction Year: Evaluation Date:December 1 2004 Lotus ArchitectureEvaluation Company:Mr. Tonu MitraEvaluator Name:Wellington Junior High school is 'U' shaped building with two storey east and west wings and a partial two storey northwing. It is a concrete frame structure with precast concrete floor and roof slabs and concrete strip and pier concrete block exterior and flat roofs.

2 The north wing accommodates the main Gymnasium, Administration unit, Industrial Arts and Home Economics onground floor and a corridor linking the east and west wings on the second floor. The east wing accommodatesClassrooms, Science Labs, a Library, Arts Room and Behaviour Disorder program area. The west wing has a smallGymnasium at the back. This wing is mostly empty, except Dependent Handicap area on the ground floor and a MusicRoom on the second floor. The entire building has crawl space. The original building (consisting of east and north wings) was built in 1957.

3 The west wing was added in 1961. There areno portables. Building Area: Original Building: 4,450 1961 Addition: 1, Total Building Area: 6, School capacity: 676 Current enrolment: 182 Over the years, little or no upgrading work was done to this building, except in isolated areas to accommodate newprograms such as Dependent Handicapped and Behaviour Disorder. As a result, the building has suffered from neglectwith a lot of aging and deteriorated building components. Recent upgrading includes Administration area renovations(1994) and roof replacement (1992 and 2001).

4 This school also has major deficiencies such as crumbling foundationwhich should be attended to as a priority. Repairs will be complicated because the crawlspace is contaminated withasbestos. Except roof, most building components are in poor condition. Many parts of the building interior are not being used and in poor condition. Upgrading proposal for building interiorassumes that the Facility will eventually be utilized to the capacity. However, interior components can be upgraded instages, as utilization improves. Overall rating for this Facility is 'marginal'.

5 General Summary:Structural Summary:Concrete strip foundations and concrete pier foundation for interior columns. Concrete columns and beams superstructurewith concrete block infill walls. Precast concrete double 'T' floor and roof slabs. Foundations are starting to crumble due to salt attacks and alkali reactions. Repairs must be completed soon to maintainintegrity of foundation; however, the crawl space is contaminated with asbestos. The superstructure is in fair condition,although numerous hairline cracks in block walls and floors would suggest movement of foundation and concrete framestructure.

6 The overall rating of building structure is 'acceptable'.Envelope Summary:The exterior walls are single wythe concrete block with loose fill insulation. Original large aluminum window units onwood frame with hopper sections and field glazing. The exterior doors are original wood on wood frames with transome year Facility Condition Index (FCI): Facility DetailsEvaluation DetailsTotal Maintenance Events Next 5 years: $4,203,684 Edmonton - Wellington Junior High School (B3357A) Report run on:January 30, 2006 2:39 PMPage 3 of 47and sidelites. The roof was replaced in 2001 with 2 ply SBS roofing, complete with internal roof drains and taperedinsulation.

7 Complete building exterior was repainted in 1994. The exterior walls are cold and sweat inside, causing damages to interior finishes. Windows are poor in design and leakair. Condensation between glazing panes have rotted wood framing inside. Many hopper sections do not operateproperly. Exterior doors and frames have rotted and many are beyond repair. Upgrading of exterior walls is recommended with air / vapour barrier, exterior insulation and cladding. Windows should bereplaced with smaller sections of energy efficient windows. All exterior doors should be replaced. The overall rating of building envelope is 'poor'.

8 Interior Summary:The interior walls are painted concrete block. Most interior doors are solid core wood on wood frames. Double doors, onwood frames with transome and sidelites and wired glass in corridors and stairs. Other fire doors are original metal onsteel frames. Corridors of east wing has new linoleum flooring. Carpet in Administration and program areas, main foyer,Library and Music room. Original vinyl asbestos tiles in most Classrooms. Painted concrete floors in service areas andwashrooms. Mixture of suspended T-Bar ceilings and original perforated tile ceilings. Original sprayed textured ceilings inthe rooms of east wing contain asbestos.

9 Except in Staff Room, Science labs and program areas, all millwork is original. Block walls have developed hair line cracks at many locations. Doors are in marginal condition and fire doors are notrated. Most hardware is original and hard to repair. Except in Staff room, all carpet is in poor condition. Original resilientflooring materials are dated and in marginal condition. Washroom and Change Room interiors are original and are falling off the walls and new tiles hard to match. Majority of interior components and finishes will have to be replaced to bring to current standards.

10 However, many partsof the building are not being used and empty. Therefore, interior upgrading can be implemented in stages, depending onthe utilization of spaces. Overall rating of building interior is 'marginal'. Mechanical Summary:The mechanical systems and equipment are in marginal condition with many components requiring replacement. Thesteam boilers are marginal and should be replaced. The unit ventilators do not provide adequate heating and ventilationfor current building use and should be replaced. The plumbing fixtures except for the lavs which have already beenreplaced are old have deteriorated with replacement parts difficult to obtain.
