Project Description
The overall project’s program is multi-phased and touches many areas of multiple buildings, each with unique scopes
the CMAR will be responsible for developing the overall project schedule and individual projects schedules to ensure
coordination of the projects and minimize impact to the campus while completing the work in the most efficient manner
possible with a goal of an overall project substantial completion of April 1, 2027. The CMAR will also be responsible
for continuous value engineering, constructability review, and cost estimating with each phase during the design, to
ensure alignment of scope and budget.
All of the work areas are surrounded by occupied spaces, some of which include research including both human and
animals, accordingly, minimizing disruption will be a high priority. Because the campus is occupied at all times by
students and staff, environment safety around the construction activities must remain a top priority throughout all
phases of construction.
Overview of Scope:
1. EAD 4th Floor multiphase Open Labs, Restrooms, Break Room & Collaboration Spaces
The EAD Level Four (4) renovation will consist of approximately 11,300sf. This project will require the selective
demolition of several laboratories and offices. The new work includes upgrades to Animal Behavioral Study
laboratories and their associated support spaces, Research Laboratories and support spaces, as well as
student study spaces. The Level Four (4) toilet rooms will receive new finishes, fixtures and accessibility
features. Additionally, toilet rooms on Levels 1, 3, 5, 6, 7 & 8 are included as an alternate scope, totaling
approximately 3,900sf. These spaces will receive the same upgrades as those planned for Level Four (4).
Areas of the building outside the scope of this renovation will remain fully operational throughout the
construction process as graphically depicted in attached documents.

2. RES 1st Floor multiphase Core Labs, Classroom & Collaboration Spaces
The RES Level One (1) renovation will consist of approximately 12,500sf, including 4,400sf of floor finish
replacement in the public corridor. This scope involves the interior demolition of existing classrooms and
laboratories, including the removal of terraced flooring from a large classroom originally constructed over the
primary structure using cold-formed metal framing. The renovated area will include an eighty (80) person
classroom, collaboration spaces, laboratory rooms, lab support areas, a cell culture room, two (2) microscopy
rooms, and the adjacent public corridor.
Construction for RES-1 will be conducted in two (2) phases. Phase one (1) will cover approximately 5,700sf of
classroom and laboratory space located south of the Utility Corridor. Phase two (2) will involve the renovation of
approximately 2,400sf of laboratory space north of the Utility Corridor. Areas of the building outside the scope of
this renovation will remain operational throughout the construction process as graphically depicted in attached
documents.
RES 3rd Floor Lab Renovation
The RES Level Three (3) renovation consists of approximately 2,200sf of laboratory space. The laboratories will
house five (5) suites made up of Tissue/Cell Culture, Imaging, Surgery, Behavioral and Bio-Chemistry laboratories.
The labs will be contained mainly within existing rooms and will consist mainly of demo work within the bounds of
existing partitions for the installation of new casework, electrical, lighting, plumbing, finishes, and some minor
mechanical work. Areas of the building outside the scope of this renovation will remain operational throughout the
construction process as graphically depicted in attached documents.
