Building and Maintaining a Sustainable Campus

Sustainable buildings and infrastructure Ensure that an integrated design process embeds sustainability into the design of our buildings, sites and infrastructure. Meet LEED v.4 Gold and our GHG reduction goal.

Green labs Develop a sustainable human behavior engagement program that impacts lab operations and design.

Materials management Plan our materials management systems to reduce the impact on our built environment by reducing consumption and streamlining processes.

Stormwater and land management Plan comprehensively for a renewed campus commons that supports the health and well-being of the MIT community and other living systems.

Planning Sectors

West Campus Meet short- and long-term campus life, academic, and service needs within the context of neighboring residential uses.

Main Campus Renew historic and iconic buildings, many reaching 100 years of use, to accommodate leading-edge activities of occupants.

East Campus Add vibrancy to this urban environment with a blend of uses, including housing, lab and research space, retail, innovation space, open space, and a dedicated facility for the MIT Museum.

North Campus Partner with MITIMCo on Main St plan – new Admin Bldg

15 | Open House

Preparing for our contributions to the campus

Partnering for design excellence The MIT Design Excellence program strives to create the best environments that exhibit design excellence for MIT through the selection of design/consultant teams, a design review process, and a post process review.

First step: designer/consultant selection (first quarter 2016) Renew our understanding of your experience and talents (RFQ, interviews) Build a roster of firms; that MIT would like as partners Create diverse portfolio of partners best suited for size and type of projects Identify firms well-versed in sustainable design solutions Pre-negotiated business terms with scope and total fee at project initiation

Subsequent steps Design review Post process review (past performance matters)

MIT property in Cambridge

The renewal and stewardship of our physical assets on campus are critical elements of MIT’s plans for the future.

To ensure that its buildings are able to support the educational, research, and student life activities essential to our mission, the Institute will continue to pursue programs of renovation, renewal, and efficiency, guided by an assessment of our needs and priorities.

Priority to reduce FCI and enhance building function

Planned investments will reduce the backlog of deferred maintenance and maximize the performance of our buildings and campus systems.

CAPITAL RENEWAL

Comprehensive building renewal

A significant portion of capital renewal program resources are dedicated to full building renewal projects.

CASE STUDY: BUILDING 2 While the building was unoccupied, a full renovation of all floors was completed including building envelope, mechanical, electrical, plumbing systems, and renewal of interior finishes.

M/E/P INFRASTRUCTURE

ROOF Between FY13 and FY15, nearly half of the program resources were spent on systems renewals in priority buildings (envelope, MEP, structure) while buildings remained occupied.

CASE STUDY: BUILDING 1 Replacement of the roof and skylight system, upgrade of fire protection systems, a new lab waste system, and life safety improvements were completed in 2014.

CAPITAL RENEWAL

CAPITAL RENEWAL

Utility renewal

Replacement and renewal of underground utility systems is a small and important component of capital renewal. Although these investments will not impact the reduction of the campus FCI, replacement of aged steam and chilled water lines ensures reliable service to campus buildings.

Efficiency Forward program

An energy conservation initiative that identifies and funds a range of conservation and efficiency measures across campus. A pioneering collaboration between MIT and Eversource (formerly NSTAR), the program is now being replicated by other organizations.

Program goals Reduce overall energy consumption on campus Improve operation of campus facilities

In its first five years, the program has enabled MIT to achieve an annual reduction of 47 million kWh.

Projects vary in scope and scale

Average year —100 projects underway – 10 capital projects (new, upgrades) – 50 systems renewals

(i.e., standpipes; facades; M/E/P) – 30–40 academic renovations

(500-3,000 sf; labs, offices, classrooms)

Project delivery models – range from one off — to bundled —

to design-build – engage multi-vendor teams, as well as

individual firms

Focus – Modernization, efficiency, renewal,

reductions in greenhouse gas, and deferred maintenance

– Past performance matters!
