Ramtech has received another Awards of Distinction trophy at this year’s Modular Building Institute World of Modular convention and trade show in Hollywood, Florida. Ramtech received an honorable mention trophy in the permanent category for the campus expansion project built for Arlington Classics Academy of Arlington, Texas.
Located on the charter school’s eleven acre Dalworthington Gardens, Texas campus, the 37,329 square foot slab-on-grade permanent modular construction design-build project features 24 standard classrooms able to accommodate up to 528 additional elementary school students in the third through fifth grades. The modular school building has five special use classrooms for the school’s art, music, speech, and special education programs, a cafeteria with a warming kitchen, administrative offices, a library annex with a tutoring center and learning lab, and a 3,000 square foot multipurpose exercise room with its own dedicated heating and cooling system.
The 2017 Modular Building Institute Awards of Distinction program included more than 100 entries at this year’s conference in categories for relocatable, permanent, and renovated modular buildings, as well as for marketing and promotional pieces. The Awards of Distinction competition includes over 30 categories in which MBI members including manufacturers, dealers, and product and service providers can submit entries. The building awards are judged by an independent panel of building design and construction experts on architectural excellence, technical innovation & sustainability, cost effectiveness, and energy efficiency.
