Palmer Hall

As part of the ongoing HVAC Upgrade Project in Palmer Hall, American Mechanical Services is currently working in the space. Construction will continue throughout the summer months, and work in mechanical rooms and service areas will extend into the 2025–2026 academic year.

Scope of Work:

• HVAC installation in department, faculty, and staff offices located in the basement and second floor—including adding air conditioning to offices that currently do not have it.
• Work in select corridors and common areas to open walls and chases for new mechanical and electrical piping and conduits.
• Upgrades in the sub-basement esports labs.

Due to the large project scope and tight timeline, there will be simultaneous work occurring in multiple parts of the building. Please expect:

• Workers present in offices, labs, and hallways.
• Construction noise and occasional odors.
• All efforts will be made to contain dust and ensure daily cleanup.

We understand this may be disruptive and appreciate your patience and flexibility. Specific timelines for work in individual offices and areas will be shared with occupants as the schedule is finalized.

We are confident that the addition of air-conditioned office spaces will provide lasting comfort and make this summer’s temporary inconvenience well worthwhile.

Tutt Science

Please note the following important details regarding this project:

• A crane will be used to load roofing materials onto the building. At times, the crane will block the circular drive between Tutt Science, Arthur, Mathias, and Barnes.
• Access to the Barnes loading dock will be restricted to vehicles entering from Nevada Avenue.
• The crane will also be positioned to the west of Tutt Science during part of the project.
• For your safety, barricades and caution tape will surround the crane and overhead work zones. Do not enter these restricted areas.
• Access to the Tutt Science Center will be maintained at all times, although pedestrians may be redirected to alternate entrances if work near a door creates unsafe conditions.

Please be aware of the following disturbances during the project:

• Noise from power tools will be present throughout the duration of the work.
• Odors from roofing materials may be noticeable inside the building, despite mitigation efforts through the HVAC system.
• At certain stages, an industrial vacuum truck will be used to remove existing ballast rock, which may create significant noise and disruption.

We appreciate your patience and cooperation during this project. The outcome will be a durable new roof expected to serve the building reliably for the next 20 to 30 years.
