This building is located on the Anschutz Medical Campus and is an expansion to Research Complex 1 to which it is connected via an underground tunnel. The building is an eleven-story, 503,000-sq-ft research facility containing wet labs, BSL3 lab, laboratory support facilities, offices, conference spaces and a 45,000-sq-ft vivarium.
The chilled water and steam services are served from a central utility plant located on the campus. In addition, the building uses a water heating system generated via steam-hot water heat exchangers. The second floor is mainly occupied by the air handlers serving the entire building.
The 3rd – 11th floors consist of wet labs and procedure rooms, which occupy over 75% of each floor with the remaining space made up of support facilities, offices and conference rooms.
The vivarium is located in the basement and served by two dedicated air handlers and an exhaust system. The area mainly serves four rodent housing areas, which utilize cage rack fans and an animal watering system.
