ARFMP: Renovation of Stauffer Chemistry, Chemical Engineering Complex

这项学术研究设施现代化计划（ARFMP）由研究设施办公室颁发，为斯坦福大学提供资金，用于翻修和修复Stauffer大楼，该大楼是化学和化学工程研究和研究培训活动的一部分。这座建筑建于1961年，最后一次翻修是在1989年。由受资方提供的150万美元和4375000美元作为费用分摊，将用于使这些研究和研究培训设施现代化，以满足这些领域的研究对它们提出的重大新要求以及安全实践研究的要求。该项目将通过系统地升级主要建筑系统和有选择地翻新个别实验室以符合最新的建筑和消防规范，解决改善当前研究基础设施的需要。出于安全、经济和研究质量的考虑，将优先考虑进气/排气系统的翻新，包括更换所有现有的通风柜。该奖项为科学和工程的基础设施提供了一个更好的环境，以进行研究和培养高素质的本科生和研究生。该项目将使两个领先的研究和研究培训部门不仅能够继续提供良好的环境，而且能够增加培养优秀学生的能力。在这些实验室受过训练的学生在基础研究和应用研究领域都很有需求。

This Academic Research Facilities Modernization Program (ARFMP) award from the Research Facilities Office provides funds to Stanford University for the renovation and repair of the Stauffer building complex which houses a portion of the research and research training activities in Chemistry and Chemical Engineering. This building was constructed in 1961 and last renovated in 1989. The ARFMP grant of $1,500,000 and $4,375,000 provided by the grantee as cost sharing will be used to modernize these research and research training facilities so as to meet the significant new demands placed on them by research in these fields and the requirements for the safe practice of that research. This project will address the need to improve the current research infrastructure by systematically upgrading major building systems and by selectively renovating individual laboratories to conform to recent building and fire codes. Top priority will be given to the renovation of the intake/exhaust systems including the replacement of all existing fume hoods for safety, economic, and research quality considerations. This award contributes to the infrastructure of science and engineering by providing an improved environment for the conduct of research and for the training of quality undergraduate and graduate students. This project will enable two leading research and research training departments to continue to provide not only an outstanding environment but one with an increased capacity for training the excellent students it attracts. Students trained in these laboratories are in demand in both basic and applied research fields.
