UBCO Animal Care Facility Expansion Feasibility
The existing 5,700 sq ft Animal Care Facility was constructed in 2012 and is at capacity with increase in research activities.
Introba was retained to study the feasibility of expanding into the shell space adjacent to the facility. The study also includes reviewing system resiliency and carbon reduction to support UBCO's campus decarbonization goal. This includes workshops with the users to review the current limitations and define goals and technical requirements to meet CCAC requirements, reviewing system and equipment operation for decarbonization opportunities, preliminary equipment selection, and construction phasing in order to maintain partial operation of the animal space during construction.
