Specifications include, but are not limited to: The project will address infrastructure and space needs to support UTMB Health’s strategic research initiatives in critical research buildings on the Galveston Campus. The project will address the aging infrastructure in T.G. Blocker Medical Research Building (MRB), Basic Science Building (BSB) and Research Building 6 (RB6) by updating the HVAC, electrical, roof system and building façade. These building systems are 40 plus years old and beyond their useful life, causing unreliability, downtime and negative impact to research. Additionally, the project will modernize portions of levels 2, 4, 5 and 6 in BSB totaling approximately 34,000 SF and level 4 in RB6 totaling approximately 16,000 SF to ensure the spaces are code compliant with NFPA, Life Safety and ADA.
