Achieving significant project savings for education facilities

MOUNTAINSIDE HIGH SCHOOL

Completed in September 2017, Mountainside High School is a 334,700 SF new comprehensive high school located in Beaverton, Oregon.

The school was built on 47 acres and it contains 342,000 SF of space, including 53 general classrooms, five special education classrooms, and 11 science classrooms. It has a capacity of 2,200 students.
The project faced many challenges due to market conditions and rising costs of materials – Rider Levett Bucknall was able to help mitigate the impact of these costs through Value Engineering exercises with the district, design team and contractor, collectively achieving significant project savings.
