1 Agency Institution Major Project Request Biennium G5 University of Wisconsin Platteville Project Title Boebel Hall Addition and Renovation, Phase II Project Request The UW System requests enumeration of $23,772, General Fund Supported Borrowing to construct 3,5 GSF of new space and renovate 46,315 GSF of Boebel Hall at UW-Platteville. Project Description and Scope This project constructs 1,662 ASF/3,5 GSF and renovates 32,58 ASF/46,315 GSF of Boebel Hall to support instructional laboratories, undergraduate research space, and general assignment classrooms. The majority of new space (2,92 GSF) will be constructed on the south side of the first floor and the remainder (58 GSF) on the northeast corner of the second floor. This project completes a planned two phased project. The fully renovated facility will support the space needs of the Department of Biology and the Geography and Geology Programs. The following spaces and quantities will be included in this project: SPACE TYPE ASF Classrooms 3,95 Instructional Laboratories 13,4 Research Laboratories 5,48 Open Laboratories & Support 5,85 Collaboration Space 1,72 Departmental Space 2,18 TOTAL 32,58 The Boebel Hall Renovation, Phase II Pre-Design Study identified a need for seventeen laboratories, three general assignment classrooms, and undergraduate research space. This renovation project will not increase the number of laboratories in the building, but it will resolve laboratory and classroom quality and functionality issues by reconfiguring, relocating, and renovating space. There will be a net loss of nine general assignment classrooms due to this renovation of laboratories, laboratory support spaces, and creation of additional undergraduate research space. Based on the campus classroom demand analysis, the three classrooms meet the space demands, while the nine classrooms to be reallocated to other uses are in excess. Spaces for the Department of Biology will include labs for general biology, molecular biology, anatomy and physiology, microbiology, and botany. Laboratory support spaces will include a cadaver storage room, an animal housing area, and a surgery room. The third floor greenhouse will be renovated and spaces for the Geography and Geology Programs will include labs for physical geography, geology, and geographic information systems (GIS). Shared spaces will include three general assignment classrooms, a computer lab, and collaboration space. This project renovates the mechanical, electrical, telecommunications, and fire detection/mitigation systems. Select infrastructure upgrades will be made to integrate new and existing systems and maintain safety and compliance. Background Constructed in 1977, Boebel Hall is UW-Platteville s primary science building. It has a total of seventeen laboratories and twelve general assignment classrooms. Phase I of the Boebel Hall Renovation was completed in August 21. Four of the seventeen laboratories were renovated in Phase I, while the remaining thirteen have never been significantly renovated since the building was constructed in Of the twelve general assignment classrooms, seven are considered undesirable due to irregular room configuration, poor viewing angles, and excessively low ceiling height. Phase I was limited to specific programmatic space upgrades on a portion of the first floor, converting ten outdated classrooms into modern, 8/18/216 page 1 of 3

2 Major Project Request Biennium flexible biology wet labs. However, the remainder of the three-floor building continues to be limited by obsolete laboratory spaces that cannot meet modern instructional needs and a lack of undergraduate research space. The proposed project is based on the Boebel Hall Phase II Pre-Design Study, which was completed in 212. This study included rigorous analysis of facility conditions and program space requirements using recommendations from the campus classroom demand analysis, laboratory demand and utilization modeling, peer benchmarking, enrollment data and forecasting, faculty/staff level data and forecasting, research funding level data and forecasting, and a strong emphasis on maximizing the use of shared spaces. It also analyzed multiple project alternatives and phasing scenarios. The final recommendations were consistent with the recommendations and findings of the 211 Campus Master Plan. A significant amount of infrastructure work was completed in Phase I to support this Phase II renovation. That work included construction of an automatic fire sprinkler system throughout the remodeled spaces on the first level, including a fire department connection, sprinkler riser, and flow switch. It also included installation of a new fume hood variable-volume exhaust system, including stainless steel ductwork connecting all new fume hoods and snorkel exhaust stations with a single-duct riser, extended through the second and third floors to a new exhaust fan array on the roof. Analysis of Need Since 25, overall enrollment has increased at a steady pace. The Fall 25 headcount enrollment was 6,145 and the Fall 215 headcount enrollment was 8,967, a 46% increase. The proposed renovation is driven by enrollment growth and the development of approved new science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) academic programs. New biology programs added in 27 include Bio-Health/Physiology, Ecology, and Molecular Genetics. A new Geographic Information Systems minor was added in 28. In Fall 215, there were 443 biology majors, which is more than double those of the year 2. This does not include the increase in biology minors or increases in non-biology students taking biology courses as prerequisites or electives. It is projected that biology will continue to be one of the university s fastest growing majors. The laboratories and support spaces cannot accommodate this increase in demand or related pedagogical changes without the proposed renovation. Lack of sufficient laboratory space has created severe scheduling constraints, often causing students to take required coursework out of sequence or lengthening the time to graduate. It also has limited open laboratory periods that support development of hands-on skills, as well as lab-based study, review, and project work. Due to the lack of appropriate research space, an abandoned darkroom serves as an ad hoc research space without the appropriate infrastructure to support the function. There is inadequate support space for faculty or laboratory support staff to prepare materials, which results in these activities being performed in the main instructional spaces and thus making them unavailable for scheduled instruction. Chemical safety and hygiene standards have changed dramatically in the 38 years since the current labs were designed and constructed, especially as they relate to ventilation. Many of the laboratory spaces have inadequate fume hoods or no fume hoods. Animal housing and procedure rooms lack adequate room ventilation and environmental controls, causing air and odors to migrate to adjacent spaces. The cadaver secure storage area that supports biology instruction is located in a different campus building, forcing some laboratory work to be performed in the cadaver storage area itself. In addition to the direct support of instruction and research, this project accommodates community outreach with the creation of three new collaboration spaces to support K-12 programs that are focused on increasing awareness and familiarity with the STEM fields. Alternatives Further delay of this project will continue to hinder the ability of the campus to meet core instructional needs. While a series of smaller maintenance and renovation projects could be undertaken to address specific and critical maintenance issues, that approach will not resolve the programmatic space needs. Since the Phase I work has already been completed in 21, which included scope to support the Phase II project, the most cost-effective solution is to continued reinvestment through a comprehensive renovation. 8/18/216 page 2 of 3
