University of Texas at Austin Welch Hall North Plaza Renovation, Austin
The University of Texas at Austin Welch Hall North Plaza’s renovation involved removing an existing concrete courtyard along with all waterproofing and drainage systems above an existing chemistry library. After removal of the existing system, general contractor Flintco installed a new membrane waterproofing system, new storm drainage system, lightweight insulating concrete deck, a decorative colored concrete topping slab, concrete planters and a drop ceiling in the library.
The work involved an elaborate system to protect thousands of books in the library below, along with extensive coordination to accommodate users of the library during the renovation.
