Specifications include, but are not limited to: This project consists of a new approximately 107,500 s.f. academic building for teaching several STEM disciplines (biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics). This building will provide a modern teaching and learning environment for faculty and students in the 21st century and will include labs, lecture rooms, class rooms, offices, and support spaces. The proposed location will be on the site of a recently demolished academic building (Architecture West) and will also require the demolition of an academic building (W.H. James). The project includes site preparation, parking and service access drives, site lighting, and a security and surveillance system. The design of any utility extensions to this building will be the responsibility of the Designer. The percent for art program will apply to this project, and the Designer will cooperate with the selected artist to incorporate artwork into the design of the building. Hazardous materials abatement will be necessary to complete the demolition work and is included in the scope and in the Designers fee. Designer services will include a comprehensive asbestos survey, including sampling and testing, and air monitoring during the abatement. Third party sampling, testing, and air monitoring will be a reimbursable expense. Design services and fees are based on and limited to Program Completion through Design Development (35%).
