Butte Community College District
Oroville, California
NorthStar has been working on building projects for Butte College for over 20 years. We have been involved in multiple buildings and outdoor projects all over campus. Below are a few highlights, followed by a list of projects that NorthStar has undertaken with Butte College.
Our work with Butte College dates back to the $13 million Student & General Services Building where we worked with LPA Sacramento who headed the design team in the design of a new 3 story 60,000 sf building (LEED Gold). Site included large retaining walls, emergency access road, and difficult ADA grading (24’ elevation differential). Construction was completed in December 2009.
Also completed in 2009 a $27 million 2 story 74,000 square foot Instructional Arts Building (LEED Gold). The design was done by LPA Sacramento and the Building included outdoor covered art studios, a theater / performing arts center, classroom lecture space, and class room labs. Construction was completed in 2009.
In 2010 NorthStar Engineering headed the design team in re-designing the “Campus Center – Student Quad”. Plans included, building/site demolition, site improvements and landscape plans for the 3 acre site. Plans were approved by DSA in 2010 and went under construction in 2011.
Campus Sidewalks Master Plan
NorthStar Engineering headed the design team in construction documents for ADA sidewalk additions all over campus. Plans included over 1 mile of new sidewalks, a new bus terminal, and new parking lot. Plans approved by DSA in 2010 with construction completed in 2010.
We joined the team led by JKA-Slater & Son who headed the design-build team of a $23 million 59,525 square foot Welding & Manufacturing Building. The Building includes a drive thru materials bay, multiple welding booths, a parking field, classroom lecture space, and class room labs.
NorthStar was involved in all engineering aspects of this significant project. Construction was completed in 2019.
