SCSU VISION STATEMENT
Through active discovery, applied knowledge and
creative interaction, we positively transform our
students and the communities where they live and work.
SCSU VISION DEFINED
St. Cloud State University makes a positive, long-term
impact on the lives of our students. We provide rigorous
and relevant academic experiences with engaged,
active learning opportunities in an intellectually
vibrant, inclusive and diverse campus community.
Our graduates are well-prepared to act as responsible
global citizens and professionals who remain actively
connected with our university.
SCSU MISSION STATEMENT
We prepare our students for life, work and citizenship
in the twenty-first century.
PREDESIGN SUMMARY
This predesign is for the renovation of Eastman Hall, colocating Student Health Services (SHS), Counseling and
Psychological Services (CAPS), the Human Performance
Lab (HPL) and U-Choose in Eastman Hall. The project
aligns with the University’s mission of preparing students
for life, work, and citizenship. Specifically, our strategic
focus of an Integrated Student Experience frames the

design through linkages between learning in and outside
of the classroom, linkages between career choices and
experiential learning, work force development through
partnerships and community outreach and accessible
service delivery.
From the inception of this work our commitment is to
align the project design to support sustainability and
stewardship of place by repurposing a historic facility,
currently not in use, that highlights its location by the
Mississippi River. This project increases square footage
but not cubic footage with the use of air space in the
gymnasium, resulting in increased energy efficiency and
facility productivity.
The co-location of these programs will address the
fractured and insufficient spaces that limit our ability
to serve students. In addition to creating efficiencies by
co-locating SHS and CAPS, the renovation will provide
students with easier access to U Choose (the campus
alcohol and drug education program), health education
services and HPL, in the School of Health and Human
Services. It will provide an improved pharmacy, the
addition of diagnostic imaging and enhanced laboratory
space to support clinic functions. Improving these
professional spaces will allow academic programs,
such as radiologic technology, to offer more real world,
collaborative experiences to students.
When the renovation is completed, it is anticipated that
the existing SHS location in Hill Hall will return to its
original use as a residence hall and the existing CAPS clinic
space in Stewart Hall and HPL program in Halenbeck Hall
will be re-purposed for academic space. This work is not
included in the predesign, and will be determined in more
detail in the future.

PROJECT RATIONALE AND
RELATIONSHIP TO AGENCY STRATEGIC
FRAMEWORK:
MnSCU Strategic Framework:
Ensure access to an extraordinary education for all
Minnesotans:
St. Cloud State University Renovation of Eastman Hall for Student Health Related Services | BWBR | October 2012
• Supports redesign of the classroom experience
in needed health related areas such as radiologic
technology, medical laboratory science, nursing,
community health, counseling and kinesiology. This
includes multi-purpose spaces that are flexible and
utilize technology to enhance learning.
• Expansion of program space in the medical clinic,
pharmacy, counseling, human performance lab,
health promotion and alcohol and drug programs
along with the addition of on-site radiologic imaging
provides opportunities for St. Cloud Technical and
Community College (SCTCC) and SCSU students to
have clinical experiences, job shadowing, research
opportunities, internship and practicum experiences.
Because CAPS is an accredited counseling center,
SCSU serves as a location for students to obtain
clinical experiences to complete their academic
degrees from state higher education institutions and
due to space limitations, we are limited in our ability
to provide this experience to more students.
• Supports employer expectations that students will
have applied learning experiences to better prepare
them for the work force.
• Supports our commitment to development of the
whole student. Given the changing demographics
and needs of the student body, greater integration
and collaboration of programs is required. For
example, we have seen an increase of 398% from
2001 to 2011 in our students with mental/emotional
disabilities requesting support services. Our studentveteran population has increased from 521 students
in 2011 to over 600 today. These changes require
us to build partnerships and linkages throughout
campus to help these students succeed.
Be the partner of choice to meet Minnesota’s workforce and
community needs:
• Enhance collaboration with SCTCC for student
services. We have seen an increase in SCTCC visits
to our clinic from 18 visits in 2002 to 312 visits in
2012.
• The
completed project will encourage more
experiential learning opportunities, preparing students
for the workforce, For instance, the remodeled
space will provide greater opportunities to
engage students in Medical Lab Science program
via shared use of our clinic labs, designed large
enough to serve as a working/ teaching space.
• Accommodate anticipated demand for university
graduates in health sciences – projected to
increase 23.27% (3,033 total new hires needed)
from 2009 to 2019 for medical/radiological/
nuclear med technicians (Source:
DEED
analysis & DEED Labor Market Info Office, MN
Employment Projections.
• Strengthen ties with the local professional and
medical communities including CentraCare,
Central MN Heart Center, St Cloud Hospital and
the St Cloud Police Department, and city of St.
Cloud.
• Health care remains among the top areas for job
opportunities for 2010 and beyond. Registered
nurses are among the top occupations in demand
for all regions of Minnesota.
Deliver to students, employers, communities and taxpayers
the highest value/most affordable option:
• The entire amount of Eastman hall’s deferred
maintenance will be eliminated ($3.836 million),
decreasing need for future R & R expenditures
• Existing systems will be replaced with more
energy-efficient systems
• The building’s Facility Condition Index (FCI) will
be decreased from .31 to 0.00, reducing the
need to use campus R & R funds
• Renovating an existing structure is more cost
effective
• Multi-purpose rooms will provide increased
opportunity for academic collaboration
• Backfilling current CAPS space in Stewart
hall and HPL program in Halenbeck Hall with
co-located Academic programs will aid SCSU
re-organization efforts & return spaces back to
academic use.
• Although not on the Historic register, renovating
and re-purposing this structure by adding a
floor within the building has important local and
regional significance.

With the space needs identified in this
predesign, there is currently no other existing
space on campus (other than Eastman
Hall) that could accommodate the required
space to achieve the goal of consolidation
of healthcare services as outlined in this
document. Compared to the cost of building a
new building for approximately $25.03 million,
the investment in renovating this well sited
and structurally sound building will provide
great value, and many more years of use to
an 83 year old building that is currently highly
underutilized.

visits. Eastman’s location in relationship to healthrelated academic programs not only addresses the
space needs for the provision of quality student
health care services, but also provides for rich
integrated academic partnerships for students.
2. An extraordinary education is one that prepares
students for life, work, and citizenship. This includes
the development of the whole person who is able
to manage their health and well-being. Mental and
2.2 project RATIONALE
There are three basic elements in the project rationale:
1. The framework which informs strategic plans for
the university is the Integrated Student Experience
facilitated by rethinking of our programs and activities
across the institution with embedded needs for spatial
reconfiguration. Eastman Hall is in close proximity to
academic buildings housing health-related programs
such as nursing, radiologic and medical technology,
counseling and community health. Opportunities
for increased experiential training and outside the
classroom learning will provide a richer academic
experience and better prepare our students
for employment in the future. For example, the
addition of an x-ray unit in Eastman would provide
radiologic technology students with on-campus job
shadowing opportunities, access to x-ray equipment
to practice imaging of test objects, the ability to
coordinate outside the classroom learning about
x-ray equipment installation, maintenance, and
repairs. Additionally, students could participate in
quality assurance testing and regulatory agency

physical health issues can have a profound impact on
students’ ability to engage fully in the opportunities
presented to them while in college. These issues
affect their physical, emotional and cognitive wellbeing and can lead to poor academic performance
and lower graduation rates. Our integrated care
approach in assisting students in the form of a
case worker and Behavioral Intervention Team has
resulted in saving of student lives. However, our
progress is impeded because our fractured and
insufficient spaces no longer can meet student
needs and influences our delivery of quality service.
The co-location of SHS, CAPS, HPL and U Choose
will lead to better coordination of patient care,
reduced stigma for mental health, increased access
to support services and better space utilization for
both SCSU and SCTCC students.

2.0 Project Background Narrative
According to the 2011 American College Health
Association (ACHA) - National College Health
Assessment report, nearly 30% of college students
have experienced stress and/or depression during
the school year that made it difficult for them to
function, and ultimately negatively affected their
academic performance. Nearly 20% of students
have experienced anxiety that negatively affected
their academic performance, with 50% of those
experiencing “overwhelming anxiety”.
St. Cloud State University Renovation of Eastman Hall for Student Health Related Services | BWBR | October 2012
CAPS is currently located in Stewart Hall, which is
primarily used for academic purposes. The high
student traffic and loitering in the corridors between
classes by students in this busy facility decrease the
likelihood of students feeling comfortable accessing
help because of perceived stigmas The renovation
of Eastman would provide adequate space for the
co-location of these programs to increase access of
care by decreasing stigma.
The March 2010 ACHA White Paper, Considerations
for Integration of Counseling and Health Services on
College and University Campuses, suggests taking
a more integrated approach may provide the best
foundation for providing holistic care to students,
allowing better alignment of support services. 73%
of survey respondents with integrated health and
counseling services reported they were better able to
meet student needs and their utilization of services
increased by 71%. Additionally, improvements
were also noted in comprehensiveness of services
and programs, quality of clinical services, client
satisfaction, efficiency of administrative processes
and staff communication.
3. Better and more effective space is required for
SHS to retain national accreditation status with the
Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health
Care (AAAHC). The possibility of losing national
accreditation status is a real and pending threat. In
the most recent (2010) AAAHC site visit report, the
surveyors included multiple comments regarding
the SHS facility only partially meeting compliance
standards relative to patient privacy, accessibility,
inadequate heating and cooling systems and staffing
ratios.
“Results of the current study suggest that these centers
have found integration to result in an improvement
in many aspects of clinical service. Centers reported
that they were more easily able to meet the demands
of their students and had a more efficient utilization of
their services. Most reported that their services were
more comprehensive and reflected a more seamless
approach to health and mental health care. While staff
morale was initially sometimes negatively affected, as
the model persisted, turf concerns and other related
issues were subsumed by the perceived improvements
in service to students. Overall, satisfaction by the
consumers was reported as very high” – ACHA
2.0 Project Background Narrative
In the past three years SHS has averaged a little
more than 10,000 patient visits per year and
CAPS has provided almost 3,600 visits per year,
a 30% increase in the past five years. Of the
visits listed above, SCTCC students visit SHS
approximately 300 times per year. The utilization
of all of these services is expected to grow based
on our increasing need, an uptick in use due to the
upgrade in facilities, less stigma for users and a
more cohesive “one stop shop”.
With Eastman Hall being located near a campus edge,
it will support the master plan to push services and
programs that have community connections closer to the
perimeter of the campus. There will be parking stalls near
the building that will be designated “visitor parking”, which
will provide improved parking access It will also make
access to the services offered more convenient to students
who are living off-campus. By incorporating a ground floor
gathering space, café, and exterior patio area overlooking
the river, it will provide interior and exterior spaces that
“allow and encourage lingering/gathering/incidental social
interactions.”
• An integrated health service facility is identified as
a need in the master plan to compete with St. Cloud
State’s peer institutions.
• Support our commitment to sustainability by
incorporating high end building systems. (see
following data for more sustainability detail)
• Expand links to the river emphasizing the existing
river walk, will take advantage of river views and
expand river oriented uses and activities.

In a 2010 comparison to peer institutions, SCSU
SHS’s “student to provider” ratio based on head
count was 5,309 to 1, compared to 4,334 to 1
at MN State University Mankato, 4,124 to 1 at
Western Kentucky University, and 894 to 1 at
Towson University. With appropriate space,
additional providers could be added allowing better
access to care and improved “student to provider”
ratios.

OCTOBER 2011
St. Cloud State University Renovation of Eastman Hall for Student Health Related Services | BWBR | October 2012
SHS is currently housed on the ground floor of Hill
Hall in space that was formerly a student residence
hall, a space not originally designed to deliver
these services. Among the issues with the existing
space: a “hidden” clinic entrance on the back side
of the building, inadequately-sized spaces, an
inefficient layout, lack of storage space, ambulance
access issues and a lack of space for growth such
as imaging and specialist provider exam space.
Recently, as many as 250 x-ray studies and 800
specialist consultations were sent off-campus.
This required students to find transportation to off
campus sites that many times are not conveniently
served by public transportation.

2.4 SPACE UTILIZATION
St. Cloud State University Renovation of Eastman Hall for Student Health Related Services | BWBR | October 2012
The Eastman Hall building was originally designed and
used as an athletic facility for the campus. Currently,
the building is closed and is not being utilized at all. The
building is not being utilized based on a number of factors
including: lack of accessibility (toilet rooms, no elevator,
etc.), lack of appropriate classroom spaces, poor heating
and cooling systems, and poor technology infrastructure.
The renovated space will dramatically increase the quality
of the spaces, and also the utilization of the building.In
future projects, Hill Hall space vacated by Student Health
will be returned to use as a residence hall, Stewart Hall
space vacated by Counseling and Psychological Services
will be returned to academic use, and the space in
Halenback Hall vacated by the Human Performance Lab
will be returned to academic use.
2.5 FACILITY SYSTEMS SUMMARY
The existing Eastman Hall building was originally
constructed in 1929 to serve as the primary athletic
facility on the St. Cloud State campus and has a current
FCI score of .31. It is a three story steel and concrete
framed structure with uninsulated brick exterior walls,
and non-structural brick walls separating the gymnasium
spaces. According to the existing drawings, the floor to
floor height from first to second is 13’-0”, between second
and third is 12’-7”, and third floor clearance is 8’-6”.
Eastman Hall currently houses a pool (closed to use in
2009), locker rooms, and office space on the first floor,
a large central gymnasium with smaller flanking gyms on
the second floor, and a bleacher mezzanine in the large
gymnasium and some small office suites on the third floor.
There are some hazardous materials that will need to
abated before any of the interior selective demolition
takes place. The hazardous materials testing reports are
included in the appendix for reference. PCB containing
transformers were replaced in 1986, and some asbestos
was abated in the building in 1993. The building exterior
was refurbished most recently in 1989, and appears to be
in good condition. The roof was partially replaced in 1999
and 2006, so should not need replacement until 2039 at
the earliest.
As indicated in the Comprehensive Campus Plan, the
existing building is marginally suitable for use in its current
state, and will need to undergo significant renovation to be
reused. Renovations will include replacement of all exterior
window and door systems, and added insulation. As noted

2.0 Project Background Narrative
This predesign is based upon conformance with the
following current building codes and standards. A
complete code review will be required during the design
phase of the project. Current codes and standards
include:
• International Building Code (IBC), 2006 Edition
• MN Amendments to the IBC, 2007 Edition
• MN Accessibility Code, MN Rules Chapter 1341
• MN Energy Code, MN Rules Chapter 1323
• International Fire Code (IFC), 2006 Edition
• MN Amendments to the IFC, 2007 Edition
• International Mechanical Code (IMC), 2006
Edition
• MN Amendments to the IMC, 2009 Edition
• MN State Plumbing Code, 2009 Edition
• National Electrical Code, 2008 Edition
• Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
• Guidelines for the Rehabilitation of Existing
Buildings (GREB), 2000
• B3 MN State Sustainable Building Guidelines
• MnSCU Design Standards
Accessibility for the building will be vastly improved by
this project. These improvements include making all of
the existing first floor building entrances accessible, the
addition of elevators, and new accessible toilet rooms,
locker rooms, and showers.
2.7 Sustainability highlights
The most important sustainability concept for this project
is that it involves the reuse of an existing building and site.
Because this project is a renovation of an existing building,
it will most likely not comply with State of Minnesota B3
requirements, but will utilize sustainable measures where
possible. These measures include:
• Replacement of existing single pane windows with
high performance thermally broken windows.
• The addition of insulation to the interior of all
exterior walls to improve energy efficiency and
thermal comfort.
• Low flow plumbing fixtures.
• Variable air volume air handling systems to minimize
air transport energy.
• Energy recovery of exhaust air.
• High efficiency, variable flow heating hot water
systems.
• New lighting systems which will include high
efficiency fixtures, occupancy sensors, and time
sweep controls.
• Daylight harvesting, especially the areas on the east
and west side of the building with the largest window
areas.
• Building commissioning.
Geothermal systems were discussed, but will not be viable
because the building footprint covers a majority of the
available site area. Photovoltaics could be explored, but
will involve further study into the existing roof structure
capacity to determine feasibility.

3.0 Project Description
3.1 site
Eastman Hall is located in the east central zone of the campus along the Mississippi River, and is bounded by 1st
Avenue on the west and University Drive on the south. Its central location makes it accessible equally from all
points of campus, and its adjacency to University Drive makes it a very visible building. The site is identified in the
Comprehensive Campus Plan as a “secondary gateway” to the campus. After renovation, the building occupants
will have great views of the river, and access to the adjacent river walk.
If possible, space should be provided in the existing “J” lot south of the building for staff and short term parking
for patient and facility use. Ambulance access will be provided from the parking area that currently exists on the
east side of the building.

The building is across the street from the Wick Science Building and a bus stop, which will allow easy access by
students in the Health Sciences programs, and it is also close to Shoemaker Hall, which is home to about 325 students. The new location of the Student Health and Related Services will also make it more convenient to students
who may be injured while involved in activities in nearby Halenbeck Hall.

3.3 PROJECT SCOPE and Program
The planning process for this predesign involved many
rounds of meetings with all of the groups included in
the space program in order to determine the extent of
their space needs and optimal location and adjacencies.
The concept planning options in this section reflect the
culmination of those discussions. Many other options
that were studied are included in the appendix at the
end of this document, as well as the minutes from the
planning meetings.
St. Cloud State University Renovation of Eastman Hall for Student Health Related Services | BWBR | October 2012
The proposed building program consists of 58,853 s.f.
which includes:
• Student Health Services: 19,897 s.f.
• Counseling and Psychological Services: 9,982 s.f.
• Building support, storage, mechanical, and electrical
spaces: 8,320 s.f.
• U Choose and Health Education spaces: 6,565 s.f.
• Common areas such as gathering space, café, retail,
check-in and reception, multipurpose room, and
restrooms: 7,029 s.f.
• Human Performance Lab: 5,159 s.f.
• Pharmacy space: 1,901 s.f.
The first floor of the building will house a large gathering/
social space near the building entrance that will include
seating and interactive digital health kiosks, a classroom
for 30-40 people, and a multi-purpose room that can
be used as a classroom or conference space as well as
for activities and student services. It will also include a
pharmacy, and a café/retail space for serving healthy
food and beverages that will have views to the river to
the east and access to an exterior patio space. A digital
radiography room will also be located on the first floor,
and it will be large enough to allow small classes to
engage in various learning activities within the space.
The Student Health Services area is anticipated to be
located on the second floor of the building in what is
currently the gymnasium spaces, and includes space
for 15 exam rooms, 4 consultation rooms (can be
used as future exam rooms), 4 nurse station areas, a
shared office for up to 3 physicians, a shared office for
up to 3 nurse practitioners, a shared office for up to 2
physician assistants, waiting space for up to 25 people,
administrative offices, and all needed support spaces. In
addition, at least one of the consultation rooms will be
set up as an “E-exam” space that can be used for video
consultation with off-campus specialists, and students
traveling abroad. Ambulance access will be from the
first floor, and utilize the new service elevator. A lab to
support the clinic will be located adjacent to the clinic on
the second floor.
The Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) area
will be located on the newly constructed third floor of the
building along with the U Choose and Health Education
areas. Because a variety of uses are located on the third
floor and the use of the adjacent spaces is less intensive
than Stewart Hall where Counseling and Psychological
Services is currently located, patients accessing this
area will have greater anonymity than if it had its own
isolated area in the building. This will, in turn, help to
de-stigmatize the counseling area, and make the use
of these services more appealing to the student body.
The CAPS area includes space for 10 clinical therapy
offices, two alcohol and other drug counselors, two
graduate assistants, 4 practicum interns, a psychiatrist
office, two mid-level practitioners, two case managers,
two case manager interns, a large group therapy room,
and all needed support spaces. It is anticipated that the
psychiatrist will utilize the Student Health Services clinic
for exams.
The final space program is included on the following
pages. For clarity, spaces used for academic purposes
are highlighted and account for approximately 6% of the
overall program space.

3.0 Project Description
Overview
Eastman Hall was built in 1929 as a physical education building. It contains three gymnasiums, a pool,
locker rooms, and classrooms. SCSU Health and Counseling Services proposes to renovate this building
for use in health care and counseling. The renovations include adding a new floor between the roof and
the gymnasium floors, creating new openings for elevators, mechanical shafts and open spaces, and
removing substantial portions of the masonry walls that surround the main gymnasium to improve
circulation.
Existing Structure
The existing building was designed by C. H. Johnson in 1929 and consists of three structural floors and
roof framing. The Basement Level, at EL 83'-0" and 85'-0", consists of a slab on grade. At some time in the
past, the original dirt floor at the western portion of the building at EL 91'-6" was replaced by a concrete
slab on grade at EL 85'-0". Thus, the new slab was located at approximately the bottom of footing
elevation of the adjacent columns. A retaining wall structure was constructed near the western exterior
wall to retain soil around the wall footing since it is located at EL 91'-6", well above the new floor level.
The dirt floor at the northeastern section of the basement was also replaced with slab on grade, and the
sloping areas of the floor were replaced with CMU walls.
Level 1, at EL 96'-6", consists of concrete joists and beams with a 2 1/2" top slab. Level 2, at EL 109'-6",
consist of a similar concrete joist beam system, and includes steel beams encased in concrete over the
pool area. Level 3, at EL 121'-8", consists of a relatively small area of the concrete joist and beam system.
The new structural floor will be constructed at this elevation.
The roofs over the small gymnasiums, at EL 131'-2"and 130'-8", consist of concrete joist and beam system,
with steel beams encased in concrete for the major spans. The roof over Main Gymnasium consists of
steel trusses that span approximately 80' supporting purlins spanning between trusses. The purlins
support metal deck. The truss depth varies from approx 7' to 9'.
New Structural Floor
At Level 3 in both the Main and adjacent gymnasiums, a new floor will be constructed between the
existing gymnasium floors and the roof. The structure will consist of composite steel beams supporting 2"
composite metal deck and 2.5" light weight concrete. Beams will be supported by steel columns located
over existing concrete columns.

Modifications to Existing Structure
St. Cloud State University Renovation of Eastman Hall for Student Health Related Services | BWBR | October 2012
In order to create the desired open space above the Level 1 Gathering Space/Café/Retail area, five
individual openings approximately 9' square will be cut through the existing concrete joists. The openings
will be located in front of the large windows, and will allow the existing concrete encased steel beams to
continue through to the east wall.
At the existing pool, the area within the pool walls will be filled with sand or flowable fill, and a new slab
on grade will be constructed. The pool walls will be extended up to the Level 1 elevation with CMU. The
area surrounding the pool will be framed at the Level 1 elevation with steel beams and composite deck
similar to the new floor at Level 3. The existing pool walls with the CMU extension will act as bearing walls
for this framing. Depending on the capacity of the existing concrete columns, it may be necessary to
demolish the existing concrete slabs that form the bleachers along the west side of the pool to help offset
some of the new loads .
The repurposing requires new elevator shafts and mechanical shafts. Elevators will be located in an effort
to minimize the interaction between the existing footings and the new elevator pits to avoid
underpinning. However, the proposed location for the service elevator adjacent to the northeast stairs will
require underpinning for the existing footings. Openings through the existing framing will be located in
an effort to minimize the impact on the existing framing. Where this is not feasible, a new CMU wall will
be constructed around the shaft to support the existing framing. This CMU shaft will extend down to the
Basement Level and include new footings.
Investigation and Reinforcing of the Existing Structure
To ensure that all of the elements of the existing structure are capable of supporting the new loads
associated with the proposed modifications, we recommend budgeting for the following testing.
Investigate the bearing capacity of the soil at each column footing, and reinforce the soil with chemical
grouting or other appropriate method as required. As more data on the existing soil conditions is
obtained, patterns may emerge that make it unnecessary to investigate each footing. However, because
the current data shows large variations in properties, we recommend budgeting for testing at each
footing.
Investigate the reinforcing contained in all footings. The existing drawings provide only a limited amount
of information on selected footings. We recommend using GPR to identify thickness and reinforcement in
all footings. If footings need to be reinforced, reinforcing will likely consist of pouring 8" to 12" of
additional concrete over the existing footing and providing dowels into the existing footing to ensure that
the two act compositely. If punching shear is a problem, dowels into the column will also be required.
Investigate all existing concrete columns using GPR or radiographic methods. The existing drawings
provide no information on the amount of steel rebar contained within the existing concrete columns. If an
existing column cannot support the new load, one method to reinforce the existing columns is to add new
steel tube column adjacent to the existing concrete column to share load. Where needed, the new steel
column would likely extend from below Level 3 to the top of the existing column footing. The footing may
need to be modified to support the load from the new steel tube column.

Building Code: International Building Code as adopted by the State of Minnesota
Design Live Loads: The preferred design live load for the Lab, Office, and Exam spaces is 60 psf.
This allows for better flexibility in the future. However, the existing structure's capacity may dictate

MECHANICAL SYSTEMS ASSESSMENT
St. Cloud State University Renovation of Eastman Hall for Student Health Related Services | BWBR | October 2012
Dunham Engineering prepared an assessment of the mechanical system serving Eastman Hall at St. Cloud
State University in St. Cloud Minnesota. The purpose of this study is to identify modifications to the
existing mechanical systems to accommodate planned remodeling. The assessment includes non-intrusive
observations, review of existing plans, and discussions with building maintenance staff regarding the state
of the heating, ventilation, air conditioning and plumbing systems.
Interviews with St. Cloud State facility management staff with knowledge of the systems indicate that the
system is currently not functioning. In general, the HVAC system has exceeded its service life, and it is not
anticipated that the systems will adequately serve the building once remodeled and renovated. The
systems are outdated vintage 1929, inefficient and do not meet current ASHRAE codes and ventilation
requirements as described below. Replacement and modifications are recommended.
Division 23 HVAC Systems:
The existing HVAC systems consist of three air handling systems and numerous toilet exhaust fans. The
perimeter rooms are heated with steam fin-tube radiation. Steam is provided from the Campus central
plant.
1.
Existing Air Handling Units (AHU): The existing AHU’s were installed as part of the 1929 building
construction. They serve the pool and gymnasium and provide make up air for the toilet room
exhaust. The AHU’s are in poor condition with failing insulation promoting mold growth, failing
motor bearings and leaking casings.
Recommendation is to replace as part of a system overhaul.
2.
Exhaust Fans: The exhaust fans have exceeded their service life as defined by ASHRAE. The
dampers do not function and require replacement.
Recommendation is to replace as part of a system overhaul.
3.
Steam System: The steam supplied to the building is from the campus central plant and is
provided at 115 PSI. The steam pressure is reduced to 10 psi at a pressure reducing station. The
owner indicated that the pressure reducing station is original and is past its service life. The steam
piping, condensate piping and traps are original to the building. The steam and condensate
piping is showing wear due to age. The steam piping, condensate piping and traps are beyond
their service life as described by ASHRAE.
Recommendation is to replace the pressure reducing station with one that is sized to allow for the
new heating of the remolded building. Steam and condensate piping and traps should be replaced
as part of a system overhaul.
a.
Radiation: The existing radiation is cast iron radiator type. The equipment is original to the
building.
Recommendation is to replace as part of a system overhaul.
b.
Unit Heaters and Convectors: The unit heaters are beyond their service life. Maintenance
staff stated that they are unreliable.
Recommendation is to replace as part of a system overhaul.

Comm. #0412068
3.0 Project Description
Cooling System: No hydronic cooling systems currently exists.
Recommendation is to add hydronic chilled water cooling as part of a system overhaul.
5.
Controls: The heating system, AHU’s, control valves and dampers are controlled via pneumatic
control system. Due to the age of the system, there are a number of leaks. This system is
inefficient and outdated.
Recommendation is to replace with a direct digital control (DDC) control system as part of a system
overhaul.
6.
Miscellaneous Code Concerns:
a. Ventilation: The current system does not meet current codes as described in ASHRAE
Standards 62, 55 and 90. Modifications to the system are required to update to current
standards.
b. Fire and Fire/Smoke Dampers: New fire and fire/smoke dampers will be required as
required by code and any modified Architectural plan layouts.
Division 22 Plumbing Systems:
1.
Domestic Water System: The domestic water supply system is original to the building.
Maintenance staff noted various pin-hole leaks in the system. The system has exceeded the
service life and is need of replacement. Pipe insulation was observed to be removed or missing
from distribution piping in the Lower Level.
Recommendation is to replace as part of a system overhaul.
2.
Sanitary Waste System: The above ground and underground sanitary waste system is original to
the 1929 building. The piping system observed in the lower level appeared in good condition for
its age, although the piping may have reduced capacity due to corrosion and sediment on the
inside of the piping. The sanitary waste system has exceeded its service life and is need of
replacement.
Recommendation is to replace as part of a system overhaul.
3.
Storm Water System: The above ground and underground storm water system is original to the
1929 building. The piping system observed in the lower level appeared in good condition for its
age, although the piping may have reduced capacity due to corrosion and sediment on the inside
of the piping. The storm water system connects to the sanitarily system, in violation of current
code requirements. Pipe sizes appear to be smaller in size than is required by current code for the
roof area served. The storm water system has exceeded its service life and is need of replacement
and does not meet code.
Recommendation is to replace as part of a system overhaul.
4.
Plumbing Accessories:
a.
Water Heaters: There is one steam-to-water domestic water heater installed in the lower
level to serve the building hot water needs. The building water heaters are over 80 years
old. Current code requires that domestic water heaters be double wall. It is unlikely that

PRE-DESIGN NARRATIVE
ELECTRICAL
DIVISION 26
St. Cloud State University Renovation of Eastman Hall for Student Health Related Services | BWBR | October 2012
I.
Electrical Systems Assessment
A.
Dunham Engineering prepared an assessment of the electrical system serving Eastman
Hall on the St Cloud State University Campus. The purpose of this study is to identify
modifications to the existing mechanical and electrical systems to accommodate
planned remodeling. The assessment includes non-intrusive observations, review of
existing plans, and discussions with building maintenance staff of the power, lighting,
communication security, life safety (fire alarm devices), heating, ventilation, air
conditioning and plumbing systems.
B.
Interviews with SCSU facility management staff with knowledge of the systems indicate
that the general conditions of the systems are they are the end of life (with some
exceptions which are noted within this document). Their preference would be for a
complete replacement of the all the existing systems to current standards and code
compliance.
C.
Medium Voltage:
1.
The existing building medium voltage components are relatively new (less than
10 years old) and are in good condition. The equipment is located on the north
side of the building, at grade, and feeds down into an underground vault off the
existing tunnel. Within the vault, there is a 600A service disconnect for Eastman
Hall and also an 800A service disconnect that feeds Riverview from the Eastman
Hall transformer. The existing medium voltage transformer is currently adequate
for the existing space program and the Riverview feed, but will not accommodate
the proposed change in space program to Eastman Hall.
a.
Proposed: Disconnect Eastman Hall from the existing medium voltage
transformer (leave in place for continued feeding of Riverview), and a new
appropriately sized transformer for the proposed space programming will
be provided.
D.
Power Distribution:
1.
The existing building electrical distribution system equipment varies from
relatively new fusible disconnect switches (a 600A Siemens distribution board
located in the basement in the northwest corner; a two section 400A Siemens
board in the boiler room on the south side basement) to panel boards that are
greater than 40 years old. The existing electrical distribution system is currently
adequate for the existing space program, but will not accommodate the
proposed change in space program.
a.
Recommendation: Replace entire existing electrical distribution system
with a new building service infrastructure. The existing Siemens
switchboards will be provided to the Owner for spare parts.
E.
Power Receptacles:
Electrical 90% Pre-Design
June 1, 2012
Page 1
Comm. #0412068
3.0 Project Description
The existing power receptacle installation is a mix of old and newer devices
connected to the existing electrical installation.
a.
Recommendation: Replace all existing power receptacles to new style
receptacles that correspond to the building’s new space programming.
F.
Lighting:
1.
Lighting throughout the building is mostly older, low-efficiency fluorescent, HID
(high intensity discharge), and incandescent fixtures. The fluorescents are mostly
T12 lamps with low-efficiency magnetic ballasts. Lighting in the Gymnasium and
the Pool areas provided by HID light fixtures with large magnetic ballasts.
a.
Recommendation: Replace all existing lighting with new energy efficient
fluorescent (T8, T5, T5HO) and LED fixtures, corresponding to the
building’s new space programming.
G.
Life Safety Egress Lighting:
1.
The existing Egress Lighting is achieved from self contained battery units in
scattered areas.

4.0 Sustainability
St. Cloud State University is renovating and infilling Eastman Hall on its campus in St. Cloud, MN. The project is
currently in the Pre-Design stage and its programing will include Student Health Services, Counseling &
Psychological Services, U Choose / Health Education, Human Performance Lab, and a Pharmacy.
The project will tie into the campus chilled water and steam systems for cooling and heating needs. The project
will be served by Xcel Energy for electric service. The specific rates will be researched in schematic design.
Project Objectives
This project will need to adhere to the MN commercial energy code and since the renovation scope includes
replacement of the air side mechanical systems, the project is considered a “Major Renovation” and will need to
adhere to the MN Sustainable Building Design Guidelines (MSBG) including Sustainable Buildings 2030
(SB2030). The State of Minnesota design guidelines require that where practicable, designers consider the use
of geothermal and solar heating and cooling systems. This project currently connects to campus steam and
geothermal is not practicable for this site. The most recent state bonding bill requires bonded projects consider
Minnesota made photovoltaic panels.

Energy Use Objectives
St. Cloud State University Renovation of Eastman Hall for Student Health Related Services | BWBR | October 2012
The state of MN commercial energy code (an amended version of ASHRAE 90.1-2004) has primarily
prescriptive requirements for certain components, such as roof conductance or lighting power density. These
prescriptive criteria are generally readily achievable for both new construction and renovation.
SB 2030 is an entirely different approach as its sets an energy use intensity target for each building using one of
two tools: an interim target spreadsheet or a web tool available through the MSBG tracking website. The
building is perhaps most akin to a medical office building but that building type is not available in either tool.
The web tool was utilized by entering a typical 56,000 gsf office with 4 floors, remodeled construction, and
district heating and cooling. Then 2,800 gsf of the lab space type was added to represent the Health Services
lab & radiology and the lab, workshop, and testing areas of the Human Performance Lab. The office and lab
areas combine for 58,800 total gsf. The following screen capture shows the resulting energy standard of 185
kBtu/ft2/yr and 45 lbs CO2e/ft2/yr.

To satisfy both the process and outcome criteria, detailed energy modeling will be performed starting at the
schematic design phase and continued through the remaining phases of the design. A simple pre-design
energy model was simulated in eQUEST to gauge anticipated annual energy consumption, energy costs and
related greenhouse for the pre-design and to confirm a trajectory of achieving the SB2030 energy and
greenhouse gas emission targets. The TMY3 (typical meteorological year) weather file from St. Cloud Regional
Airport was used for this analysis. Mechanically, the modeling included the use of multiple variable air volume
(VAV) air handling units with terminal VAV reheat boxes and perimeter baseboard radiators. Heating water
will be from a heat exchanger with the campus steam and cooling will be by campus chilled water. Additional
energy conservation measures such as daylighting, reduced power lighting design, and outdoor air load
reduction strategies were represented as broad schematic inputs to the model.
The following three charts show the modeled annual energy costs, site energy consumption and greenhouse
gas emissions for the pre-design model. Regarding the SB2030 targets, the pre-design model shows the
potential to meet both the site energy use intensity target and the greenhouse gas (CO2e) emissions target.
The completion of design, construction and the operation of the building will determine the ultimate building
performance.

Renewable Energy Objectives
The Minnesota Sustainable Building Guidelines require the evaluation of the two renewable (wind or solar)
scenarios to provide 2% of the building’s anticipated total energy usage. The State of Minnesota design
guidelines require inclusion of an alternative energy source to provide 2% of the project’s energy use.
Based upon on the modeled energy use target of 137 kBtu/sf that equates to about 3 kBtu/sf. At 58,800 gross
square foot, this equates to 176 million Btus of energy or 52,000 kWh of electricity. Solar domestic hot water
and photovoltaic panel alternatives to meet this renewable energy target are evaluated in the following sections.
Solar Domestic Hot Water Analysis
At the schematic phase, the anticipated domestic hot water load is approximately 400 gallons per day,
resulting in an annual thermal load of about 90 million Btus. Assuming the heating is done by campus steam
with a total system efficiency of 50%, the resulting natural gas consumption of 1824 therms at a cost of roughly
$1368 annually.
Based on RETscreen analysis, a schematic solar DHW system consisting of (4) 80 sf panels and a 600 gallon
storage tank would reduce the annual natural gas consumption to about 572 therms at an annual cost of $429.
At an estimated initial cost of $45,000 and $938 savings per year the simple payback is about 48 years. This
payback exceeds the anticipated life of the system components (panels, pump, and controller).
Since the anticipated annual domestic hot water consumption is relatively small, another renewable energy
technology may also need to be implemented to satisfy the 2% renewable energy objective.
Photovoltaic Panels Analysis
Based on the PV Watts screening tool a 40 kW photovoltaic array mounted at a 40 degree angle in St. Cloud,
MN would produce approximately 51,000 kWh annually. This generation would very nearly satisfy the 2%
renewable target. This generation would save approximately $4,000 annually in utility costs. The cost to
install PV typically starts at $5,000 per kW and increases with site specific mounting and structural concerns.
Assuming no complexities, this system would cost $200,000 and have a payback of 50 years which exceeds
the anticipated life of the system components. This schematic analysis of PV is appropriate for panels made in
MN or elsewhere.
Renewable energy systems rarely directly pay for themselves. To see a positive return, renewable projects need
to identify value in other benefits and/or access some of the ever changing financial incentives. The most
common types of incentives are utility rebates and preferential tax treatment. However, per Minnesota Statute
16B.323 this project is ineligible to receive a utility rebate for PV and no preferential tax treatment would apply
to renewable energy systems owned by a government entity.
Other government and non-profit entities have explored agreements to lease roof area to a private party. The
private party purchases the photovoltaic panels, receives the advantageous tax treatment, and the sells the
generated electricity back to the building owner under a power purchasing agreement. Such an arrangement
would be outside the scope of the project design with exception of some electrical infrastructure to
accommodate future onsite renewable energy generation.

Pre-Design Estimate

INTRODUCTION
Project Description
In brief, the project consists of renovations to the St. Cloud State University Eastman Hall in St. Cloud, MN. Scope of work includes creating a new
interstitial level at Level 3 of the Upper Gymnasium, raising +/-4,000sf of floor elevation on Level 1 at the pool area and complete demo and
renovation to 4-Levels of the existing structure.
This document is based on the measurement and pricing of quantities wherever information is provided and/or reasonable assumptions for other
work not covered in the drawings and programs as stated in this document.
Basis of Pricing
Pricing shown reflects probable construction costs obtainable in the St. Cloud, MN, area on the date of this statement of probable costs. This
estimate is a determination of fair market value for the construction of this project. It is not a predication of low bid. Pricing assumes competitive
bidding for every portion of the construction work for all subcontractors, that is to mean 4 to 5 bids. If fewer bids are received, bid results can be
expected to be higher.
Subcontractor’s markups have been included in each line item unit price. These markups cover the cost of field overhead, home office overhead,
and profit. These markups can range from 5% to 15% of the cost for that particular item of work. The rates that have been established are for
budgetary purposes only and are not to be used to establish the cost of additions or deletions to the scope of work that may arise during the actual
construction process.
General Contractors General Conditions, Overhead and Profit are calculated at 15%
Documentations
Faithful+Gould received the following documents for the this cost estimate:
Pre-design package- dated October 2011
As-built drawings- dated September 1929
Various site photos taken by BWBR
Soil Solidification Grouting- lump sum budget provided by Veit & Company, Inc. Dated- March 8th, 2012
Design Contingency
A 15% conceptual/estimating contingency has been included in the estimate. This contingency should reduce to zero at bid stage, but the monies
identified are likely to be absorbed in the detail "above-the-line".
Escalation
Escalation has been calculated based upon the mid-point of construction being January 2017. From the date of estimate, May 2012, until the midpoint of construction we have added 16.3% based upon the MN DOF 2011-2012 Escalation factors
Items excluded from the Cost Estimate
Legal and accounting fees
Design, engineering and consultant fees
Testing and inspection
Fire and all risk insurance
Owner's contingency
Hazardous material mitigation
Loose furniture, fittings and equipment (FF&E)
Moving costs
Medical equipment
Head IT equipment
Audio/visual equipment
Any additional structural modifications to existing structure to support new floor levels.

8.0 Technology Plan
8.1 Technology plan
“SCSU will provide appropriate technologies and resources
that support teaching, learning, service and access. This
goal is in alignment with the SCSU Technology Master
Plan.”
1. The University will provide students and faculty with
St. Cloud State University Renovation of Eastman Hall for Student Health Related Services | BWBR | October 2012
classrooms and laboratories containing up-to-date,
discipline-specific equipment and software.
Rationale: Technology is a means to offer students
a high quality education with the skills needed
to compete in the marketplace and to make that
education accessible. Skills in most fields, from fine
arts to technical professional fields, use some form
of technology, which may range from microscopes,
musical instruments, and kilns, to computers and
software.
2. The University will utilize information technology
and distributed learning to support classroom learning and to provide access for outreach.
Rationale: With demographics changing (Date
Source: Minnesota Higher Education Services
Offices), and job requirements requiring ongoing
education (Date Source: MDES), many of our new
students may have time and location constraints.
Distributed learning is one way to make education
accessible for them and allow the institution to
access new markets.
3. The University will apply appropriate technolo-
gies and resources to support teaching, learning,
research, creativity, scholarship, and service.
Rationale: Technology should support the pedagogy,
learning goals, research, creativity, scholarship, and
service that remain at the core of professional needs
and development.
4. The University will provide appropriate technolo-
gies and resources to enhance access to support
services.
Rationale: The University needs an infrastructure to
support services for its students, faculty and staff,
including human resource functions, e-services, and
integrated business functions.
SCSU willl:
• Create an exceptional e-learning environment
• Develop excellent classroom resources that effec-
tively support SCSU’s teaching and learning missions
• Ensure that technology matches pedagogy
• Assess how student learning is being affected by
classrooms technology use
• Provide a robust and stable IMS platform to support
teaching and learning.
PRE-DESIGN NARRATIVE
COMMUNICATION, LIFE SAFETY & SECURITY
DIVISIONS 27 & 28
I.
Technology Systems Assessment
A.
Dunham Engineering prepared an assessment of the electrical system serving Eastman Hall
on the St Cloud State University Campus. The purpose of this study is to identify
modifications to the existing mechanical and electrical systems to accommodate planned
remodeling. The assessment includes non-intrusive observations, review of existing plans,
and discussions with building maintenance staff of the power, lighting, communication
security, life safety (fire alarm devices), heating, ventilation, air conditioning and plumbing
systems.
B.
Interviews with SCSU facility management staff with knowledge of the systems indicate that
the general conditions of the systems are they are the end of life (with some exceptions which
are noted within this document). Their preference would be for a complete replacement of
the all the existing systems to current standards and code compliance.
C.
Fire Alarm System:
1.
The existing Simplex 2001 fire alarm control panel and associated annunciation
devices are nearing end of useful life and does not meet new campus standards.

8.0 Technology Plan
Interviews with SCSU facility management staff with knowledge of the systems indicate that
the general conditions of the systems are they are the end of life (with some exceptions which
are noted within this document). Their preference would be for a complete replacement of
the all the existing systems to current standards and code compliance.
C.
Fire Alarm System:
1.
The existing Simplex 2001 fire alarm control panel and associated annunciation
devices are nearing end of useful life and does not meet new campus standards.
a.
Recommendation: The existing fire alarm system shall be removed in its
entirety and replaced with a new voice style fire alarm system to meet current
SCSU campus standards.
D.
Communication System:
1.
The existing building is served by a 2-post rack located in the west side of the
basement. The rack currently holds (3) data patch panels, (1) rack mounted 110-block,
48 port switch, and UPS. Adjacent to the rack is a wall mounted fiber patch panel,
connecting building to campus LAN.
a.
Recommendation: Provide a new main communication room in the basement
(approximately 150 square feet) which will house the building network
electronics. The space should be provided with a cabinet style UPS, dedicated
cooling, cabling racks, network cabinets, and cable tray for proper cabling
routing. This room would then serve a secondary communication closet
(approximately 80 square feet) located on each floor via backbone fiber and
UTP. Replace all existing communication cabling (phone, data, television, etc.)
and provide new category 6 cabling corresponding to the building’s new space
programming.
E.
Audio Visual Systems:
1.
The only observed audio visual system was in recently renovated classrooms that
included a new projector, speakers, and projection screen.
a.
Recommendation: Provide building wide audio systems for paging (via the new
voice style fire alarm system), and select areas for dedicated Audio Visual
Systems with Crestron Controls.
F.
Security System:
1.
Dunham did not observe any existing electronic security system or devices.
a.
Recommendation: Provide building wide security systems that will include
intrusion detection, access control, and video surveillance.
