An exterior HVAC condenser unit servicing laboratory OM 025 will be placed outside, in a secure area.

Impact & remediation:

Access:

• Circulation in the corridors of the Otto Maass Building basement will be reduced. However, access to all laboratories and spaces will be maintained for occupants.
• The contractor will need to access student lounge 08, washrooms 015 and 016, and cleaners’ closets 023 and 033 for the installation or modification of electromechanical services. This work will be coordinated in advance with the building director and the building occupants.

Service shutdowns:

• Service shutdowns will be required. Occupants of the building will be informed in advance.

Safety considerations:

The project includes demolition work that may disrupt materials containing silica, lead, and asbestos. All applicable safety protocols will be put in place. The safety protocols include dust-containment methods such as setting up enclosures to isolate the work area and putting it under negative pressure, as well as using specialized vacuuming equipment. It will also include cleaning and regular inspections.
