| Isbell School Frisco, TX | |
 | Background Frisco, Texas is faced with a rapidly increasing student population (now in excess of 13,000) and the Frisco Independent School District (FISD) is applying a construction strategy where building health, efficiency and longevity are as integral to high performance design as are the architectural features and educational technology. A shining star among new schools within the FISD and United States is the 75,000-sq. ft Bert and Eloise Isbell Elementary School. The project is a model for other school districts in how to meet the needs of rapid growth using a highly efficient, healthy, sustainable and cost-effective construction strategy. |
Solution / Results The use of sustainable building materials, including Icynene® soft foam insulation and air barrier material, will help extend the lifespan of the building to 40-50 years. Icynene® is ideal for steel frame construction used in many schools (including Isbell Elementary) since it helps control thermal conductivity and fills in gaps in steel stud cavities, delivering up to 50 percent energy cost savings over conventional insulation. | |
