Renovation of Loutit Hall of Science

大谷州立大学提议利用最近改进科学设备和教学空间的努力，通过更新和合并其研究和研究培训设施来完成其现代化议程。由此产生的现代化和巩固将改善生物、化学、地质和水资源研究所的研究和研究培训。具体地说，这笔赠款将用于：改造18个专门的个人研究实验室，升级和现代化研究和研究培训实验室，整合目前分散在校园其他地方的研究和研究培训活动，为未来的增长提供灵活性，并使基础设施现代化。基础设施的现代化包括：更换暖通空调一次盘管，空气平衡暖通空调系统，更换温度控制系统，更换磨损/不足的燃气、水和空气系统，增加公用事业能力和灵活性，提供集中式高纯水系统，并采用最先进的环境安全控制。

Grand Valley State University proposes to capitalize upon the recent efforts to improve science equipment and instructional space to now complete its modernization agenda by updating and consolidating its research and research training facility. The resultant modernization and consolidation will improve research and research training in biology, chemistry, geology, and the Water Resources Institute. Specifically, this grant will be used to: Remodel 18 dedicated individual research laboratories, upgrade and modernize research and research training laboratories, consolidate research and research training activities currently scattered elsewhere on campus, provide flexibility for future growth, and modernize the infrastructure. Modernizing the infrastructure includes: replacement of the HVAC primary coil, air balance the HVAC system, replacement of the temperature control system, replacement of worn/inadequate gas, water, and air systems, increase utility capacity and flexibility, provide a centralized high purity water system, and incorporate state-of-the-art environment safety controls.
