Current Projects in Science Hall Addition No. 2

This project includes, but is not limited to, the survey of existing interior room signage to determine the exact quantity, correct numbering, and notable space labeling for the installation of new room signage. Any existing room signage and existing tackboards adjacent to door openings will be removed and wall surfaces will be patched and repaired for the installation of new accessible room signage.

We have two new faculty and would like to order replacement blinds for both offices, 0103 Science 2 (Loecke) as well as for 0105 Science 2 (Goheen)

This project will replace hot water supply and return piping; add a new balancing valve on heating water risers. The scope of work includes, but is not limited to, the installation of new hot water piping and balancing valves; and the removal and reinstallation of ceiling tiles.

Investigate and make necessary repairs to radiant and reheat plumbing throughout building. Multiple Leaks throughout building.

Craig Abel and Keith Bidne with the USDA/ARS are looking to replace the cage washer that is currently in 612 Science 2. They have a couple of questions about the existing infrastructure before they actually get the new (custom) one ordered. 1. It looks like the current electrical system is set up for 220v, but the new one requires 480v. Can FP&M install that in Science 2? What would that take? 2. The new washer will need 60# of steam pressure to operate. Science 2 is currently set at 30#. Can we safely boost the current setting to 60#? 3. Is it possible to get the floor cleaned and an epoxy coating put in before the new installation? Is that something FP&M does? 4. Does FP&M check the existing vent, damper, and motor for the exhaust? It has not been operational for quite some time. 5. Is there a schematic of the room somewhere to forward to the company ? (electrical, plumbing, etc.) 6. Can we have the drain pipes and floor drains inspected/repaired? 7. Where would we put the old pieces of the washer after demo while we are waiting on the new one? The old one will be picked up the same day the new one is delivered for installation, and there will likely be some lag time due to repairs/upgrades in the space. They would like an estimate of any costs for changes to the room. For example, if bringing 480V/3 phase to the room is expensive, they may go back to the company building the cage washer to see if 240V is possible, etc. etc. Thanks
