SUMMARY:Conference - UMass Brut: Windows on UMass
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW! \nUMASS BRUT: WINDOWS ON UMASS\nUMass Brut: Windows on UMass is a multi-part conference focusing on the preservation and renovation of Brutalist architecture on the UMass Amherst and Dartmouth campuses. WMAIA is providing credit for two of the sessions.\nThese lectures and free and open to the public\, however\, registration and payment of fee is required if you want WMAIA to record the learning units. UMass faculty and staff requiring learning units may register for no fee. \nUMass Dartmouth LARTS Building Renovation Project\nFriday October 25| 3:15-4:15PM| in person at 170 Design Building UMass/Amherst |1 HSW (approval pending)\nUMass Dartmouth LARTS Building Renovation Project Description: As the UMass Dartmouth campus nears the 50th anniversary of the construction of the majority of its facilities\, it is engaged in modernization of its bold\, brutalist architecture that represents architect Paul Rudolph’s vision for an “urban” public university. The presenters will provide an overview of a historic $97M project that will renovate to the campus’s main academic building – the Liberal Arts or LARTS building – with updated classrooms\, student support spaces\, and other communal learning areas to give the Commonwealth’s students the educational facility they need to achieve educational\, professional\, and personal success. Upgrades to the facility include universal access improvements\, adding air conditioning\, energy efficiency upgrades like new exterior windows\, roof\, HVAC\, and lighting systems\, all within a historically significant and formally expressive concrete building. In addition to student spaces\, there will also be enhancements to faculty and staff spaces.\nPresented by: Carla Ceruzzi\, AIA\, LEED AP BD+C – Associate Principal\, Sasaki\, Rebecca L. Berry\, AIA\, LEED AP – Principal\, Finegold Alexander Architects \nDuBois Library 6th & 7th Floor Renovation Tour\nFriday October 25| 4:30-5:30PM| in person at DuBois Library UMass/Amerst|1 HSW (approval pending)\nOpened in 1973\, the 28 -story UMass W.E.B. Du Bois Library (designed by Edward Durell Stone) is currently the third tallest library in the world. Renovations in mid-20th century buildings preset multiple challenges including limited space for MEP and fire protection systems\, aging\, outdated and often failing systems\, structural limitations\, building envelope issues\, hazardous materials abatement\, accessibility concerns\, and construction that is often difficult to adapt to the current occupants’ space requirements. Additionally\, changes in building code requirements may mean that renovation projects often must confront complex code compliance issues. The Du Bois Library presents all of the above challenges and more. The 6th and 7th floor renovation project\, completed by Kuhn Riddle Architects & Designers involved the conversion of a graduate student study floor and an existing stack floor to offices and facilities for the Universities IDEAS (Instructional Design\, Engagement\, and Support) and CTL (Center for Teaching and Learning) programs\, renovation to the existing Digital Scholarship offices on the 6th floor\, and offices for IT support staff. The IDEAS and CTL programs rely heavily on technology to assist facility with both in-classroom and on-line teaching methodologies. Spaces provided include classroom and group training rooms\, public and private meeting rooms\, a small video production studio\, and both open and private offices for staff.\nPresented by: Liv Wyatt\, Designer / Construction Administrator\, Kuhn Riddle Architects & Designers \nRegister Now!
