Scope of work:
Lot 1 of this project consists of upgrades to mechanical and electrical distribution in the NW corner of the shared lab R1-037. This work will be followed by an extensive renovation of room R1-038 (Lot 2).
Minor electromechanical work will take place in the adjacent hallway (1-HALL4 and 1-HALL3) and in room R1 041A.
Impact & mitigation:
- Service shutdowns:
- Minor electrical or ventilation service shutdowns may be required. Occupants and users of affected buildings and rooms will be informed in advance.
- During construction, access to Raymond’s electromechanical rooms will be required for related work. Such construction work will be coordinated in advance with the building director, adjacent projects and the building occupants.
Safety considerations:
The project includes demolition work that will disrupt materials containing silica and asbestos. All applicable safety protocols will be put in place. The safety protocols include dust-containment methods such as setting up enclosures to isolate the work area and putting it under negative pressure, as well as using specialized vacuuming equipment. It will also include cleaning and regular inspections.
