Project Description

2006 TRB Authority for $57, 600,000.

Primary issues: Deteriorated Teaching Facilities & Class Labs Fire, Life Safety, & Code Issues Outmoded Research Lab Space Fragmented Space Organization

Legislative Appropriation/Project Budget

Existing Building Conditions

Coordination with SERC Build-out

Project Delivery & Academic Schedules

Lack of Appropriate Swing Space

Project Constraints

Opportunity for Enhanced Learning Environments

Creation of Educational Synergies Additional Space for CLASS & NSM Foundations for a Health Science

Initiative Areas for Research Clusters &

Initiatives

Project Opportunities

SERC Building:Costly, ties up research space

Melcher Complex:Problematic location, conflicts with

Charter School function

New Construction:Budget will not support construction of

labs for all departments

Swing Space Options Considered

Major Code Compliance Issues Too Costly to Renovate for Sciences

Mechanical & Electrical Systems InadequateStructural Bays Inefficient for Lab

Sound Structure & Basic Systems Ideal for Classrooms and Offices for

CLASS Expansion Vacates PGH for Math & Computer

Requires Complete Renovation Major Code Compliance Issues Difficult to Renovate for Chemistry and

Biology Sound Structure and Basic Systems Ideal for Classrooms and OfficesAdaptable for Less HVAC Intensive Labs

Fleming

Ideal for Classrooms and Offices for NSM

Geoscience Labs from Science Bldgs Physics Labs Floor Reserved for Health Science

Initiatives with Cornell & Methodist

Fleming- Existing Building

“Basic Building” for Chemistry and Biology Class Labs

Efficient Structural and HVAC Systems Provides Swing Space and Quickly

Addresses Top Concerns Research Labs to SERC & SR I

Fleming Building Addition

Fleming - Current Space Allocation

Fleming - Proposed Space Allocation

Funds Insufficient for Complete Renovation

Sound Structure and Basic Systems Correct Fire, Life Safety, Elevator, & Code

Issues Renovate 1-2 Floors for Research Clusters Renovate Key Public Areas Provide Platform for Future Initiatives Link to SERC Provides Synergy &

Clustering Potential
