A “Critical Environment” challenge at the University of Chicago Background When Dr. Gregory Engel moved his research lab from the University of California at Berkeley to the University of Chicago, it was with the promise that he could design his own lab. This was not a small matter. Dr. Engel and his researchers study
Asst. Professor Simon Laser Laboratory University of Chicago - GCIS Building IBS provided full mechanical Design Build services for the temperature controls and environmental conditions of the new laser laboratory space. This included providing an initial vetting of the proposed space for the new laboratories, furnishing mechanical engineering for the ductwork and piping distribution,
Professor Tokmakoff Laser Laboratory University of Chicago - GCIS Building IBS provided full mechanical Design Build services for the temperature controls and environmental conditions of the new laser laboratory space. This included providing an initial vetting of the proposed space for the new laboratories, furnishing mechanical engineering for the ductwork and piping distribution, engineering
Professor Loomis Laboratory Washington University (St. Louis, MO) IBS provided on site review of the existing as-built conditions in order to understand and define why the space was not meeting the intended environmental design for the research requirements. Project required IBS to develop and document the findings of how and why the space was
Professor Xiaoyang Zhu Laser Laboratory Columbia University (New York, NY) IBS provided on site review of the existing as-built conditions in order to understand and define why the space was not meeting the intended environmental design for the research requirements. Project required IBS to develop an observation strategy and document the findings of how
Professor Petersen Laboratory Cornell University (Ithaca, NY) IBS performed on-site observation of the existing laboratory mechanical system, provided engineered solutions for mechanical and control systems to enhance performance, reviewed and consulted on the existing laboratory space construction and performed functional retro commissioning of the alterations to the control sequence and mechanical design, verifying performance.
David Awschalom Laser Laboratory University of Chicago - Jones Building IBS provided on site labor to perform engineering based vetting of the new space for the laser lab. Project consisted of retro-fit of existing space to provide new laser laboratory suite. Project included strict adherence to maintaining environmental stable conditions
