1 WATER AS DESIGN INSPIRATION IN ARCHITECTURE AND ENGINEERING The Design of the UNC Coastal Studies Institute Don Kranbuehl, AIA, PE, LEED AP Associate, Clark Nexsen Lead Designer / Project Architect Avery Monroe, PE Lead Mechanical Engineer Project Team: Architects: Clark Nexsen Associate Architect: Cahoon & Kasten Civil Engineer: Albermarle and Associates Mechanical Engineer: RMF Engineering Structural Engineers: Stewart Engineering Landscape Architects: CLH Design

2 WATER AS DESIGN INSPIRATION IN ARCHITECTURE AND ENGINEERING IMPORTANCE OF NATURAL WATERS: CANALS AND CROATAN SOUND SURROUNDING WETLANDS SALT WATER FROM ATLANTIC OCEAN HURRICANES AND WIND DRIVEN RAIN BUILDING WATER SYSTEMS: RAINWATER SYSTEM STORMWATER SYSTEM GRAY WATER SYSTEM CONDENSATE WATER GEOTHERMAL WELL WATER

3 COASTAL STUDIES INSTITUTE Research Building (50,000 sf), Marine Service Building (12,000sf) Construction Cost for Campus - $22,000,000 Future Phase: Residential Dorms (14,000 sf)

4 Research Building 52,000 SF Seeking LEED Gold Research Labs for Marine Archeology, Coastal Processes and Engineering Teaching Classrooms and Labs Administration and Research Offices

5 SITE Outerbanks, NC, Roanoke Island Croatan Sound Historic Indian Site

6 SITE Manteo, NC pop Surrounded by Wetlands and Marshes Preserve Above Freshwater Aquifer for County Well Water

7 SITE Buildable Site Created by Dredged Canals Dredged Canals provide water access and views to sound Narrow southern exposure
