Phase II of the Welch Hall renovation will modernize approximately 58,600 GSF of the west side of the Welch Hall 1929 Wing. Renovations recommended include the addition of a mixture of chemistry teaching labs, temporary labs to be future Analytical Chemistry research labs, faculty offices, and a conference center in addition to other smaller conference and meeting spaces.
Alderson & Associates, inc. made analytical research lab space on the second and third levels, with wet lab research and teaching space located on the fourth and fifth levels. There will be a conference center located on the fourth level.
The Mechanical requirements for the Welch West wing renovation were a large portion of the renovation efforts. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Texas Emissions Reduction Plan (SBSB-5) followed the project as applicable. The scope includes the upgrade and replacement of existing MEP systems to accommodate the new functions associated with current standards.
