Axis Design Group was selected by the Beaverton School District to re-roof portions of the existing failing roofs at Findley (FES), McKinley (MES) and Nancy Ryles (NRES) Elementary Schools in response to the passing of the voter bond measure.

The scope of work for Findley Elementary School includes the installation of a restoration coating system in lieu of removal and replacement of the existing low-slope single-ply membrane roof assembly, as well as removal and replacement of the existing steep-slope asphalt composition shingle roof with new asphalt composition shingle roof system. Work includes new associated flashings, conductors, gutters, downspouts, splash blocks, fascia’s, copings, curbs and counter-flashing for mechanical equipment, roof top supports (conduit, pipes), new rooftop access ladders, roof hatch guardrails and fall restraint system at steep-slope asphalt composition shingle roof. Additionally, there will be new wall and fascia panel cladding.

The scope of work for McKinley Elementary School includes removal and replacement of the existing low-slope built up roof assembly with new built up roof assembly with added insulation. Work includes new associated flashings, gutters, downspouts, fascia's, curbs and counter-flashing for mechanical equipment, roof top supports (conduit, pipes), new skylights, rooftop access ladder, roof hatch guardrail and fall restraint system. In partnership with Holmes Structures, Axis was selected as part of the team to improve the structural deficiencies of the Elementary School. The seismic improvements will address the performance of both the primary structural system and non-structural elements such as the walls, roofs and ceilings. The re-roof work will include roof-level seismic strengthening. The walls that require additional shear capacity will be strengthened on the side that will have the least intrusive impact on adjacent spaces, especially plumbing and other utilities. Special attention will be given to where devices, furnishings, and other equipment must be removed to provide access to the work. All new finishes will be selected to match or complement the existing adjacent finishes. Additionally, there will be nonstructural seismic upgrades in bracing tall narrow and fall prone contents, ceilings, pipes, ducts, lights and equipment in the building.

The scope of work for Nancy Ryles Elementary School includes removal and replacement of the existing low-slope built up roof assembly with new built up roof assembly with added insulation as an alternate, as well as cleaning of the existing steep-slope asphalt composition shingle roof. Including new associated flashings, scuppers, gutters, downspouts, splash blocks, fascia’s, copings, curbs and counter-flashing for mechanical equipment, roof top supports (conduit, pipes), new rooftop access ladder, and roof hatch guardrails. Additionally, there will be new wall and fascia panel cladding.
