Health and Science Center (HSC): Manhard Consulting provided site civil engineering service including preliminary and final engineering, construction staking, landscaping, and roadway reconstruction and widening for this $60 million, design/build facility. The 186,000 square foot HSC provides a combination of laboratory, classroom, office and instructional space. Highlights include an operating room, full dental lab, medical imaging laboratories, and a “Sim Hospital”.
The HSC building subsequently received LEED Gold certification from the U.S. Green Building council for its many sustainable features. Some of these features include: sun screens, rain cisterns, green roof, high levels of building insulation, and building orientation to minimize heat gain.
BIC & SRC Renovation/Student Center Addition: Manhard Consulting provided civil engineering services to the College of DuPage for the proposed Berg Instructional Center (BIC) & Student Resource Center (SRC) Renovations and the Student Services Center (SCC) Addition at the College of DuPage campus. We not only provided peer review of construction documents, but also provide peer review of the stormwater management report and calculations.
The BIC project includes infrastructure and renovated classroom and office space of the 477,000 square-foot interior. In addition, the 65,000 square-foot SCC will be added to the north side of the BIC.
