This laboratory renovation will include a bio-safety level 2 laboratory space to support research. Project will include the design and construction of two labs, including lab utilities: compressed air, natural gas, H+C water sources with new local HW heaters, sanitary drain connections, extension of fire sprinkler system into lab and mechanical support spaces, and an emergency shower station.
