Located on the top level of a three-story cast-in-place concrete, brick-clad building, this containment laboratory is constructed abutting, and partially overhanging, an existing building designated for historic preservation. IMEG provided structural engineering and design services for the project. Structural systems were carefully designed around unusual site-specific challenges, such as a deeply cantilevered post-tensioned roof from which
The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center is a research facility where over 3,500 research projects are conducted in a year. In order to support their continual research, a new lab facility was required to aid researchers located in the South Campus. The new multi-disciplinary research facility is a five-story, 78,000-sf addition to the existing
IMEG provided electrical and technology engineering design services for a new 78,000 SF Wisconsin Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory (WVDL). The 3-story building is located on the University of Wisconsin – Madison campus in close proximity to the Small Animal Clinic and the Large Animal Hospital. The lab, an independent Wisconsin state agency with administrative ties to
Wheaton College wanted to provide their students and faculty with a state-of-the-art science facility for academic instruction and faculty research. A new 128,000-sf facility includes all disciplines of the science curriculum at Wheaton College. The building houses chemistry, environmental science, physics, biology, geology, math and computer science departments with specific labs for anatomy, physics/chemistry NMR,
IMEG provided mechanical, electrical, fire protection, plumbing and technology engineering services for a 24,000-SF renovation on the second and third floors of an existing 11-story building. The space houses animal research, human research, and chemical laboratories. Key elements of the research space include: revamped acoustical chamber microscopy lab freezer room that will house approximately 24
The new Advanced Chemical Technologies Building (ACTB) Laboratory facility supports collaboration of 180 principal investigators and graduate students in organic chemistry, biochemistry and chemical science; biophysics and physical chemistry; neuroscience; nanoscience/materials science; and laser dynamics. Future growth and space flexibility was a component of the MEP design. The mechanical design includes custom air handling units
IMEG provided mechanical, electrical, and plumbing services for a new USDA lab on the University of Toledo campus in Toledo, Ohio. The lab focuses on hydroponics to provide research for growing plants in soil-less media such as nutrient-rich water for bedding plants and floral crops. This research enhances the quality and yield of greenhouse produced
IMEG performed the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing commissioning for this BSL-3 and BSL-4 laboratory. Pre-functional performance commissioning was performed during the construction phase of the project. Functional performance commissioning began at project completion. The facility consists of a 35,000 sf, single-story bio-medical research laboratory complex which ranks in the top facilities capable of studying emerging
Located on the Des Moines Area Community College campus, the new 5-building state complex houses forensic laboratories, a morgue and autopsy suite, a biosafety laboratory, a cleanroom, testing laboratories, bio/chemistry laboratories, and general office space for the Department of Public Safety – Division of Criminal Investigation and State Medical Examiner, Department of Agriculture Laboratories, and
IMEG’s San Francisco structural team provided engineering design and services for Electronics For Imaging’s new campus, which consists of a 350,000-sf, five-story structure and a 0180,000-sf, six-story building. A six-story, 300,000-sf parking structure is also included in the campus and provides parking for 1,190 cars. The structural system used on the project is a one-way, cast-in-place, post-tensioned concrete slab supported on precast, pre-stressed
