CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS
Note: The buildings on the UCCS campus are divided into two categories: General Fund and
Auxiliaries.
General Fund Buildings include academic and administrative functions.
Auxiliary
buildings include dormitories, athletic, and dining facilities. In some cases, construction standards
differ depending on the building category. Confirm building category with Facilities Services Project
Manager.
DIVISION FIVE: METALS
Site Railings:
Several styles of site railings have been approved for use on the campus. See the
Campus Design Guidelines. APPENDIX 5. All site railings are to be powder coated with RAL # 6009.
Avoid use of light rails (lighting integrated with handrails)
Skate Stops:
In general, skate stops are provided on railings and concrete knee walls to minimize damage
from skateboards.
On concrete walls, use SkateStoppers, stainless steel, “G” series. Space approximately 4 feet
