HOME Tumwater High School Stadium and Classroom Addition

Tumwater Stadium/Classroom

Except for the glue-lam beam roof, the shell of this facility is an all-precast concrete structure composed of precast walls, hollow core slabs, beams, columns, and single riser seating units. The upper level (below the roof) is an open-air, covered deck that can be used for physical education activities or concessions during school games, and the lower enclosed level is used for classrooms. The exterior walls feature a trapezoidal ribbed finish that is painted in the school colors.
