Project Description

The project is a follow on second phase to the replacement of original plumbing and piping in the campus core Building 1 – 8. Project consists of total replacement to the hot/cold water supply & return lines, valves, fittings, hangers, fixtures, etc. Additional work consists of ceiling grid/tile removals/replacements to install new piping runs as necessary. Project scope may involve several buildings or only one depending on construction estimates against the project budget. Project scope may also include the total renovation of selected restrooms as necessary due to riser piping replacements going through restroom wet walls. Restroom renovations will be as per the current college standards for these areas. Additional scope to be considered is addressing existing wall penetrations and piping runs throughout the buildings to bring areas up to current codes.

The selected design team will have experience in the design & construction administration of similar renovation/replacement projects. Important elements in the selection process will be experience in ensuring protection of buildings and surrounding campus property. The firms must have experience in the complete design and monitoring construction of piping/plumbing systems, to ensure work meets all requirements and to ensure subsequent warranties.
