As a regional vocational-technical high school, Minuteman serves students from a select group of member towns and from a host of non-member cities and towns in Eastern Massachusetts. With a tight delivery schedule, Canam delivered over 900 joists and 268 100-square feet of deck in 4 months. To maximize ceiling height for this school design, the structural system chosen allowed for all plumbing, electrical and duct work to pass through the ceiling joists.
