Project Description:
The project is for the Advance Planning for the comprehensive renovation of the Smith
Building. The Smith building, constructed in 1966 with 92,512 GSF, is the home of the
Engineering Technology and Construction Management program and the William States
Lee College of Engineering’s common first-year curriculum for all engineering students. The
existing classrooms, computer labs, research labs, and faculty offices are outdated and no
longer meet the requirements of today’s academic programs. The program will include
project-based engineering instruction labs, active learning classrooms, research labs,
collaboration space and faculty and administration offices to support UNC Charlotte
engineering programs.
The comprehensive renovation will address building system upgrades of the mechanical
(HVAC) systems including the rooftop condensing unit, existing air handling units,
replacement of VAV and exhaust systems. The existing HVAC system controls will be
replaced with a new controls system. Electrical, plumbing and fire protection systems will
be upgraded to support the new building program. Renovations will address ADA and
building code compliance deficiencies.
There will be a mandatory pre-submittal conference for any interested parties held at 2:00 p.m. on September 17, 2024, in Denny Building, Room 120.
A non-mandatory tour of the building will take place immediately following the meeting.
Visitor parking is available in East Deck 1.
