SCOPE OF SERVICES

The consulting team is being asked to design, develop construction and bidding documents, and provide construction period services for Phase 1 of a comprehensive remodeling project for Boebel Hall. The Phase I estimate is $2.2 million. A study was completed (#07G30) in March of 2008 by Continuum Architects and Arnold and O’Sheridan Consulting Engineers. The study outlined a multi phase project where this Phase I will renovate 7,480 square feet of area presently occupied by general assignment classrooms and will construct an infill addition of 548 square feet on the first floor. The renovated space and infill addition will provide for up to four (4) flexible teaching laboratories, associated prep space, storage, and physical plant receiving and custodial services. These specific spaces are identified as follows:

|Floor |Plan Space ID |Space Description |Square Footage |

|1 |1A |Lab |1000 |

|1 |1C |Prep |300 |

|1 |2A |Lab |1000 |

|1 |7A |Lab |1000 |

|1 |7B |Prep |300 |

|1 |8A |Lab |1000 |

|1 |8B+8C |Prep/Spec |700 |

|1 |11C |Shared Equipment |150 |

|1 |17A |Field Equipment Storage |800 |

|1 |106 |Receiving Area |620 |

The consulting team should have experience renovating and or designing biological science laboratories for a four-year college or university, of a scope and size similar or larger than this project. The consultant team shall provide the following services and deliverables, using the work completed as Programming as a basis:

• Working with stakeholders (i.e. user group, campus representatives, UW System and DSF), to perform program verification and develop complete construction plans for renovation.

• Identify any zoning and or permitting actions that will be necessary to implement this project.

• Working with information in this document and the previous study to identify and document any special design issues that will impact the design of Phase I and that may have implications for Phase II, and provide recommendations that address these issues.

• Working with information in this document and the previous study, survey and evaluate the existing building areas, utilities infrastructure and equipment, code compliance, and update, as necessary.

• Develop a project schedule that is based on the design and program information, and information provided by the stakeholders.

• Develop a project budget estimate for Phase 1 that includes construction costs and related project costs. Provide benchmark data and/or other data that supports the recommended budget estimate.

• Using DSF sustainability guidelines conduct a sustainability charrette and work with stakeholders to develop a conceptual approach for incorporating sustainable design practices into this project. This approach will serve as the foundation for analysis and development of sustainable strategies during design and implementation of this project.

PROJECT BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE

Boebel Hall was constructed in 1977 and is 76,274 GSF in size. The building has not undergone any significant renovation or upgrades. The existing spaces within the building, including laboratory spaces, are aged and outdated and do not adequately meet the current demand for flexible laboratory space. The need for the remodeling is based on the limited capacity of the existing academic building, increasing student populations, and outdated facilities.

UW-Platteville has a fall 2007 enrollment of 6,269 students. The Tri-State Initiative, approved by the UW Board of Regents and implemented by UW-Platteville starting fall semester 2005, will incrementally increase enrollment at the university by 2,000 students by from 2005 levels.

SITE

Boebel Hall is a 67,274 GSF / 47,451 ASF academic building constructed in 1977. The building consists of a basement and three floor levels. The building is located on the UW-Platteville campus.

Parking

Boebel Hall is served by numerous existing parking lots. No new parking capacity will need to be developed or evaluated as part of this project.

Emergency Vehicle Access

The site is currently accessible by university-owned access sidewalks/service and emergency drives on all four sides of the building.

UTILITY ANALYSIS

The Boebel Hall Programming and Conceptual Planning Study ((DSF #07G30) includes an analysis of the existing building condition and utilities serving the site. The analysis considers these needs for both Phase I & Phase II. Detail on the analysis and the requirements are in the report.

Utilities

Steam, electrical, data/telecomm, sanitary sewer, municipal water, and natural gas services are supplied to Boebel Hall.

Water & Sanitary Sewer

The study indicates no work is needed in Phase I for water supply, sanitary sewer, or storm sewer. A domestic water softener is currently used in Boebel Hall due to the hardness of municipal water. Domestic water heaters use steam for heating water. This will need to be confirmed by the A/E team.

Electrical and Signal

The campus has a 12,470V primary power distribution system which routes electrical power from a switchgear lineup located at the Central Heating Plant to all buildings. The campus signal data hub is located in Gardner hall, sixty feet to the west of Boebel Hall. Lighting systems and electrical device work is required in Phase I. The study notes no work for the electrical service, distribution, and emergency electrical work is needed in Phase I.

Underground Storage Tanks, Site Contamination

The Boebel Hall does not have underground storage tanks or building/site contamination.

Fire Protection

The work outlined in Phase I will require fire alarm system work. The system should be monitored and annunciated by the building fire alarm system and campus central alarm reporting and emergency address system.

HVAC

Steam is supplied to the building from the campus Central Heating Plant. The campus Central Heating Plant has adequate capacity to serve this project.

The Campus Automation System (Johnson Controls-MetaSys) will be used to monitor and control all new HVAC equipment and systems.

The study finds that Phase I will require installation of a second water cooled chiller and related equipment to offset additional cooling loads. The study provides more detail on these needs. Phase 1 will also include replacing the existing air handling unit serving the first floor and associated work, installing a new DDC temperature control system, installing a new fume hood variable volume exhaust system, overhead laboratory service stations, and programming a duct shaft to support Phase II. This is detailed in the study.

Building Power Distribution

The electrical service to this building is from the campus 12,470V distribution system routed to a Kinney 15KV switch and Square D Sorgel transformer rated at 500KVA, 120/208V-3PH-4W, 5.0%Z, 1387A. The existing distribution equipment is located in a separate room and is rated 1600A, 120/208V-3PH-4W and is served from 1600A bus from transformer to main breaker section of switchgear. The study provides addition detail.

Fire Alarm System

The fire alarm system in the building is a multiplex/intelligent system with one way voice communication capability. Area smoke detection is provided throughout the building. The fire alarm panel is connected to the campus central alarm reporting and emergency address system. Any modifications to the existing system must be fully compatible with the existing campus-wide Edwards Technology fire alarm central reporting system to provide all reporting and announcement functions that are available in other campus buildings. Modifications to the existing fire alarm system design must be reviewed with the local fire marshal.

Emergency Generator

A 45 KW, 56.25 KVA diesel generator is located in the basement of the building. The unit is rated 156 A, 120/208V-3PH-4W. It serves the existing building life safety loads.

WEPA STATEMENT

In accordance with the Wisconsin Environmental Policy Act (WEPA), this project will require a Type III Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). The entire WEPA process must be completed prior to Phase I project bidding.
