Lakehead Public Schools - Gymnasium Flooring

H. Bradford Green Architect Inc. was retained by Lakehead Public Schools to design new hardwood sports floors for both Hammarskjold High School and Westgate C. & V.I.. The project scope also included refinishing the existing hardwood stage flooring at Hammarskjold High School and new telescopic bleachers for Westgate C.&V.I

While different floor systems were required for each site to suit the depth of the existing floor slab depressions, in each case an anchored and ventilated shock absorbing system with 20 mm thick hard maple strip flooring was specified and installed.

The Hammarskjold gymnasium has painted game lines for one main and two secondary basketball courts, one main and two secondary volleyball courts, four main and six secondary badminton courts.

The Westgate gymnasium has painted game lines for one main and two secondary basketball courts, one main and two secondary volleyball courts, and six badminton courts.
