Summary

This is an overall architectural plan document (A1-0_-_OVERALL_PLANS.dwg) for the Beaufort County Detention Center Gymnasium Conversion Project in South Carolina. The plans illustrate the renovation and conversion of an existing gymnasium and common area within the detention facility into a dormitory-style inmate housing unit. The project scope encompasses the transformation of a multipurpose space into a secure detention housing area with associated support facilities, including construction of a new inmate shower room and integration of architectural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and security improvements necessary for operational functionality. The renovation is designed to provide additional inmate housing capacity to address overcrowding and inmate overflow conditions while establishing a designated housing area capable of supporting medical isolation and quarantine operations.

The architectural plans serve as the baseline documentation for qualified and licensed contractors submitting sealed bids for the project. These plans establish the technical specifications and spatial requirements that bidders must address in their renovation proposals, ensuring all submitted bids align with the detention center's operational and security standards for the converted facility.
