Nearly 8,000 soldiers and their families live at Fort Wainwright adjacent to Fairbanks, Alaska. As the Fort grew, so did the demand for high-quality indoor recreation spaces. This led to the construction of two state-of-the-art facilities, the Aquatic Center and the Community Center. Commercial Contractors Inc. (CCI) was selected to handle the extensive flooring installations for both facilities. Designers chose porcelain tile for the nine lane pool, splash pad and zero depth / water play pool, locker rooms and the many bathrooms in the new facilities. LVP and carpet tiles were used for concession and high-traffic common areas. With 35,000 square feet of complex porcelain tile designs, nearly 5000 square feet of LVP and 500 square feet of plank carpet tiles all installed in just six months, this project showcases CCI’s expertise in handling large-scale, high-performance flooring projects in the challenging Alaskan climate.
When the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) decided to renovate 1970s-era Moore Hall-Bartlett Hall complex, the goal was clear, to create spaces in the two dormitories that would meet the needs of students now and into the future. The renovation included a complete overhaul on the seven residential floors in each dorm. In addition to dorm rooms, UAF’s architects took on the challenge of designing gender-neutral bathrooms, complete with separate shower stalls, toilet stalls, and two ADA-compliant stalls per floor. The intent was to have the communal restrooms accommodate every student on every floor.
