Troy High School New Classroom Building Project

At the Troy High School new classroom building project the main electrical feeders and panels have now been installed. This will allow startup and commissioning of the HVAC units. Concrete has been poured around the building and the landscape areas are all graded. In the interior all the finish lighting is being completed. T-bar ceiling panels will soon be installed, followed by the flooring. The next steps are to finish the low-voltage computer lab connections, framing and re-finish the asphalt fire road in front of the building.
