The University of Mississippi had an old outdated building with rooms that had not been used in quite some time. They needed new and updated labs so we turned these old rooms into state-of-the-art labs for the students at Ole Miss. The new labs are in the historic building of Brevard Hall. The renovation project took 180 days to complete, at a cost of $2,524,000.00. The renovation for the labs included demolition of interior walls and wall finishes, removing the old floors, and ceilings. All new plumbing had to be installed to accommodate the new lab stations. All new HVAC and ventilation hoods were installed to each lab station and all new electrical was added to accommodate the lab needs. 


All of these products were high efficiency products to that these labs could be the most efficient that they could be. The labs were framed in and the wall finishes were installed to match the time period of the building. All new floors were installed to give the labs a nice clean look. All new lab station cabinetry and countertops were added and the entire space received new ceilings and paint. We added modern style lab stations such as new table and countertops with data, plumbing (gas and water), and electrical sources. The labs include new fume hoods over all lab stations. The old worn out entrances were

demolished and updated with new aluminum storefront and Low E energy saving glass.


One large room was also converted into four separate office spaces for the professors. These offices are located over the labs on another floor. This project was completed on time and within budget. The project had zero lost hours safety.
