Summary
The district’s operations director told the Franklin City School Board that CNC Engineering inspected a cracked exterior cafeteria wall at Franklin High School and recommended adding 5-inch tubular steel posts; the work is estimated at $16,000–$20,000 and the district is soliciting additional quotes.
The Franklin City School Board received an update on a cracked exterior wall at Franklin High School that an outside engineer inspected and recommended reinforcing.
The director of operations told the board that CNC Engineering ‘‘inspected the entire length of the wall’’ and recommended installing additional posts. He described the hardware as ‘‘a 5-inch square tubular steel post with 0.25-inch thickness, including flanges welded to the top and bottom for attachment,’’ and said the work would require removal and re-tiling of the affected wall areas where a PTAC unit had been removed. He gave an estimated cost range of "$16,000 to $20,000" and said the division is gathering additional contractor quotes.
A board member asked for a contractor timeline; the director said he would follow up with specifics. The director also said the district is continuing to gather quotes and will report back when more details are available.
The item was presented as information; the board did not vote on funding or start work during the meeting.
