AMS buildings are resilient, have the same lifecycle as traditional buildings and require significantly less transportation and installation time. The steel frame used is designed to withstand rigorous seismic conditions, similar to that used in high-rise construction.
Its products are categorized into four brands—GEN7, AMS EVOLVE, AMS FORM and AMS FORM—each designed to meet the various needs of schools. The company ensures schools find the perfect fit for their requirements, from turnkey solutions to fully customized buildings.
GEN7 infrastructures provide an energyefficient design using advanced technology that boosts the well-being and productivity of learners and teachers by employing recycled materials, maximizing natural light and ensuring fresh air circulation. These buildings consume up to 70 percent less energy than regular school buildings. Classrooms are designed to teach students the value of conserving resources while inspiring real-life problem-solving. The designs are solar-ready, capable of zero net energy consumption and adaptable over a 50-year lifecycle.
Customized buildings designed to a school’s exact programming and preferences are offered under AMS EVOLVE. High-quality buildings and top-end features are delivered 60 percent faster than traditional construction methods at a lower cost. An exclusive customization option extends the product’s flexibility beyond the Division of the State Architect’s (DSA) precheck parameters. Clients can opt for one or two-storied enclosed corridors with a custom roof design, just like site-built buildings.
For instance, Sol Aureus College Preparatory (SAC Prep) urgently needed to expand its facilities within a tight schedule and budget. AMS 2GO delivered the perfect solution by facilitating procurement through a personalized DSA pre-approved design, ensuring the building was completed during the summer holidays to prevent any disruption to campus activities. The relocatable building system was designed for maximum flexibility and provides a spacious environment that supports diverse learning activities and instructional methods. The structure also includes a 12-inch Americans with Disabilities Act-compliant ramp with handrails. AMS managed to keep the community feel of the campus intact while offering students a high-quality, comfortable space.
AMS FORM offers a portfolio of DSAapproved designs that can easily adapt to various design preferences. The brand’s solutions are targeted at value buyers, offering a balance of speed and flexibility while enhancing functionality in a reconfigurable space.
AMS 2GO is an economical and shortterm solution for schools that offers a sitebuilt wood foundation with a simple, reliable and relocatable design. These code-compliant buildings are delivered within 60 days after plan approval with a low-cost configuration, making them an affordable option.
