J� I NSU'S GUY HARVEY CENTER OF EXCELLENCE <br />FOR CORAL REEF ECOSYSTEMS SCIENCE <br />architecture • engineering RESEARCH FACILITY <br />The new Guy Harvey Center of Excellence for Coral Reef <br />Ecosystems Science Research Facility is a signature, state of <br />the art, facility of approximately 86,000 square feet. The project <br />was delivered in the Design -Build method of project delivery <br />by MOSSMILLER/ACAI /CANNON and promotes research by <br />faculty, researchers, visiting scientists, post - doctoral fellows, <br />and graduate students through careful attention to functionality, <br />safety, physical, environmental, and experimental /research <br />needs, together with controls and operational considerations. <br />It has won numerous awards from the Design Build Institute <br />of America. <br />The COE CRES features research laboratories, outdoor <br />experimentation area, laboratory support (including a <br />seawater system), research offices, administration offices <br />and support, research discussion areas, building support, and <br />below building parking. The facility encourages interaction <br />between scientists through well designed, open and shared <br />areas such as terraces with adjacent conference rooms, small <br />conversation areas, hallway discussion pods, information <br />technology library / lounge, outdoor patios, function lawns, and <br />pavilions in addition to traditional indoor offices and labs. The <br />COE CRES provides flexibility in assigning of office and lab <br />space ranging from single offices or labs to suites of offices <br />and labs in a modular arrangement. <br />The COE CRES facility was designed to meet LEEDO Silver <br />certification from the United States Green Building Council <br />(USGBC). The project was partially funded by a $15 million <br />National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Grant <br />provided under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act <br />(ARRA) that is being matched by NSU. <br />architecture <br />engineering <br />rooting consulting <br />construction im <br />
