In 2008, voters in Oregon approved a $374 million bond issue to renovate aging buildings, update technology, and expand instruction by increasing classrooms throughout the PCC system. As a new construction project, the PCC Southeast Center was to provide exterior insulation outside of framing, as required by code, while still fulfilling the architect’s design idea.
Kingspan‘s KarrierPanel provided the best thermal envelope and reduced thermal bridging, allowing the building to be fully passive.
