And now we have the shelving going up within the environmental controlled space:

Another Step Closer

In the last two days we have taken another step toward the finish of this renovation project, we had owner training with the sub-contractors and UNCG facilities personnel on many of the infrastructure changes and new mechanical devices.  An interesting insight into this experience is shown below, the air on the third floor coming from the new HVAC unit will be disinfected to enhance the controlled environment:
This is done with infrared lighting tubes:


Crews are also getting us cleaned up and prepared for the inspections starting next week, this is the hallway:
And this is the new conference room:

Slowly but surely

We are getting there, slowly but surely and the latest schedule has us complete right at the start of the new semester.  So not much time to react but as I said before, it's still better than November.  What is happening now is a lot of finishing touches and tweaks to certain areas.  The big news is regarding the new HVAC system has been started and is being balanced to produce proper air flow.  A couple of photos on things you'll see, this is the bottom of the steps onto the first floor landing next to reference.

This is the stripping out back for the warning over the exit ramp access.


The next couple of weeks will be more loose ends and clean up with a tentative date for state construction inspection set for August 18th.  An announcement will be made at the All Personnel Meeting it that is the case.  And once some additional clean-up takes place we'll start putting some furniture and pictures back in place..........so stay tuned!
