Renovation of Chemical Research Laboratories

该奖项的目的是翻新北卡罗来纳州立大学化学系的主要设施达布尼大厅。大约三分之二的项目解决了通风系统中的严重缺陷。其余工作包括所需的翻修，以利用通风的改善，使大楼达到现代规范规范，并改善通信。将增加15个新的化学通风柜。为适当的化学品储存提供更多空间，并对研究空间、电力和安全淋浴进行现代化改造。最后，还将增加一个现代化的电话和计算机通信系统，使达布尼·霍尔进入90年代。这项现代化工程应该加强这个历史上优秀的化学系的认证资格。

The purpose of this award is to renovate Dabney Hall, the main facility of the Department of Chemistry at North Carolina State University. About two-thirds of the project addresses the serious deficiencies in the ventilation system. The remainder of the work includes renovations required to take advantage of the improvements in ventilation and to bring the building up to modern code specifications and improve communications. Fifteen new chemical fume hoods will be added. More space for proper chemical storage will be made available and research space, electric power, and safety showers will be modernized. Finally, a modernized telephone and computer communications system also will be added to bring Dabney Hall into the 1990s. This modernization project should strengthen the accreditation credentials of this historically excellent chemistry department.
