Project Description
The scope of the project will involve a renovation of third floor rooms in the central section of the building. This entire area is used for laboratory research and the newly renovated spaces will retain this basic function. Specific project elements will include complete demolition of existing electrical mechanical and plumbing fixtures as well as removal of existing cabinets and fixed equipment. The study should consider relocating wall partitions as necessary to produce lab modules and lab support spaces (coldrooms, preparation rooms, etc.) comparable in size and function to those in Chemical & Life Sciences Building. The total area for the ?core? spaces is approximately 6,200 sq. ft.
