Description
This project upgraded lighting, seating, finishes, acoustics, and audiovisual equipment in all eleven A-wing auditoriums and all C-wing general education classrooms. Problems with occupant comfort were addressed in several ways:
- In some instances, lighting levels have increased 200% over original values.
- Digital controls have replaced obsolete pneumatic controls on the mechanical system and temperature sensors were relocated from auditorium walls to the return air ducts.
- The fire alarm system in A and B wings was updated, as well as all three elevators in the building. B wing received new ceiling tiles, flooring, and paint.
- The Clark Study Lounge project provides a dedicated area in the Clark building with high-quality equipment and design, to allow for a study environment that is both productive and comfortable for students.
