The renovation project provided much- <br />needed infrastructure replacement and a full interior <br />renovation of a historic building, transforming the <br />historic Straub Hall (originally built as a dormitory) <br />into an innovative 21st Century academic facility. It <br />includes one of the nation’s finest technically daylit <br />large lecture auditoriums, which seats nearly 500 <br />students. <br />The renovation included energy performance and <br />seismic upgrades. Exterior windows were rebuilt <br />to include double glazing while retaining historic <br />wood frames. In the historic gable room, trusses <br />and the gable end windows were stored off site <br />while structural and seismic elements were rebuilt. <br />The trusses and gable end windows were ultimately <br />reintegrated. <br />Cost (Construction) $31M <br />Size 82,000 sf (remodel) <br /> 58,000 sf (expansion) <br />Roles John Rowell, Greg Brokaw <br /> Architects <br /> Donald Petting <br /> Historic Building Consultant <br />Timeline Completion 2014 (remodel) <br /> Completion 2015 (expansion) <br />Ap <br />r <br />i <br />l <br /> <br />24 <br />, <br /> <br />20 <br />1 <br />9 <br />, <br /> <br />Wo <br />r <br />k <br /> <br />Se <br />s <br />s <br />i <br />o <br />n <br /> <br />- <br />It <br />e <br />m <br /> <br />1
