Smith Comprehensive Renovation – CMR
Submittals are due by 2:00 p.m., November 20, 2025.
Pre-Proposal Meeting: The meeting will take place at 11am on Wednesday, November 5, 2025 in room 202 of the Smith building located at 319 Library Lane, Charlotte, NC 28223.
Project Description:
The project is the comprehensive renovation of a portion of Smith Hall, as indicated in the attached graphic. The Smith building, constructed in 1966, is 91,580 SF. The portion of the building to be renovated is approximately 47,000 SF, with the new sprinkler system and ceiling repairs
throughout the entire building. Smith 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 The existing classrooms, computer labs, research labs, and faculty offices are outdated and no longer meet the requirements of today’s academic programs.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, including new PME systems in the North wing; a new sprinkler system (including fire pump and emergency generator) throughout the entire building; a new fire alarm; new electrical switchboard; new elevator at the
center of the building; new restrooms at center of building; renovated building entrances at Levels 1 and 2; exterior envelope repairs; replacement of the existing roof; and correction of drainage issues. Hazardous material abatement is part of the project. ADA and building code compliance deficiencies will be addressed.
Submittals shall be mailed or hand delivered to:
