This past weekend PCC Construction was honored to attend the WBC Craftsmanship Awards in Washington, DC. We received an award for our work at the Whitman-Walker Clinic, alongside the Architect: Winstanley Architects & Planners, and General Contractor: DAVIS Construction. We are so very proud of being a recipient of this prestigious award for the craftsmanship of this award-winning project.

This Project encompassed multiple glazing systems, types and crews all working together to create a visually stunning project. PCC worked hand in hand with the design team as a design assist contractor to take the early renderings to a full building. The large point supported vestibule and segmented unitized walls above it both required a high level of technical expertise in the field to ensure all systems were perfectly aligned and tied into adjacent finishes while meeting the ultimate goal of water tightness.

Initially built in three phases, starting in 1923 with the academic wing, the 1927 addition to the academic wing, and finally, in 1939, adding an auditorium, Smothers Elementary School in DC aimed to modernize the existing space from 43,400 SF to 66,100 SF.

PCC’s scope of work included openings, doors and frames, specialty doors and frames, entrances, storefronts, curtain walls, windows, and hardware. In addition, a new corner entryway was added to the building to open up the community space at multiple ends of the building.

At the start of the project, PCC had tight time constraints due to industry supply chain issues, challenges due to the age of the building, deferred maintenance, occupied space considerations, and budget concerns.

With the fragility of supply chains, heightened demand, trade restrictions, factory closures, and reliance on ‘just-in-time’ delivery, we ran into several issues that caused our team to switch manufacturers and visit factories to expedite deliveries.

Team PCC worked seven days a week, 12 hours shifts to meet installation schedules and installed complex systems such as historical replica windows that meet contemporary performance and efficiency, fiberglass sandwich panels, curtainwalls, and aluminum fins.

Despite adversity, all materials were received on time and installed to the highest standards.

PCC was a proud partner with Coakley & Williams Construction
and Chiaramonte Construction Company.

Architectural Glass can positively impact your well-being.

Research shows how important daylighting is for occupant wellness.

5-14% higher test scores for children.
18% more productivity for workers.
22% decrease in pain medication for hospital patients when they have access to daylight and a view.

It's become increasing important to include biophilic design, a design principle that connects those inside with nature outside.

“Glass is often featured in biophilic design allowing occupants to maintain a connection to nature while indoors. Glass facilitates views of nature outside and allows light to enter to support plants or trees growing inside the building.”
