DESIGN OVERVIEW PER BREAKDOWN AREA
1.5.5.1.
Building Exterior (00)
The building exterior is located at 2950 Highway Drive in Trail, BC.
The building exterior will be cosmetically upgraded to represent MIDAS with professionalism and
a sense of welcome. Signage consistent with the MIDAS brand (to be determined) will be created
and installed on the awning, signpost and exterior facing frosted doors. Some basic parking and
wayfinding signage for MIDAS members and visitors will be created and installed.
The building exterior should be used as a significant opportunity to publically celebrate major
financial contributions to the MIDAS project.
Appendix A- Project Scope Definition: Detailed Design
1-5 | P a g e
1.5.5.2.
General Building Area (10)
The building will be shared between anchor tenant Fenix Advanced Materials and MIDAS, with
room for future expansion. A current tenant (Area 40, Tenant 101, Tenant 118 on Appendix FMIDAS Facility OVERALL Site Battery Limits, Construction Area will vacate the facility by
December 1, 2015.
General Building Areas accessible by MIDAS and relevant to this Design Consult include hallways,
the electrical room and the building’s existing HVAC system.
Other General Building Areas include a kitchen, several bathrooms and a janitorial space.
1.5.5.3.
Office and Meeting Room Area (20)
The Office and Meeting Room Area is to be the primary entry point for MIDAS business,
partner/sponsor and research & development interactions, and so design should represent
MIDAS with professionalism and a sense of welcome.
The Office and Meeting Room Area provides a physical opportunity to celebrate the
achievements of the facility and involved businesses and members, partners, financial
supporters, and to promote a consistent marketing presence or MIDAS brand.
The Office and Meeting Room Area will be shared by Fenix Advanced Materials, Community
Futures of Greater Trail, KAST and graduate interns on R&D assignment. It provides a gathering
area, reception space (101) and offices (102-106) requiring broadband connectivity, cosmetic
and marketing upgrades.
A Meeting Room (107) requires separation from the gathering space (100) and an office (106),
broadband connectivity and meeting/presentation technology installation.
The paint and colour scheme is to match that selected for the Learning Centre.
Furnishings are to be selected by KAST.
1.5.5.4.
Learning Centre (30)
The Learning Centre is a communal work space with the capacity to host instruction sessions and
conferences/events. It requires broadband connectivity and cutting edge meeting/presentation
technology.
The Learning Centre design should facilitate co-work and collaboration, with significant
attention paid to friendly acoustics, enabling both productive work and comfortable
Appendix A- Project Scope Definition: Detailed Design
1-6 | P a g e
conversation. The paint and colour scheme is to be designed for this end use and desired “feel”,
and carried through to the Office and Meeting Room Area for design and brand consistency.
A soundproof booth for private phone calls will be installed, with computer workstations and
internet connection.
Furnishings will be supplied by KAST. Furnishings should be on castors and moveable.
To facilitate event hosting/catering, the Learning Centre is to include a stainless steel sink with
hot and cold water, a dishwasher, counter space, and basic cupboards/drawers for dishes.
Windows and a double-sized glass door between the Learning Centre (30) and the Electronics,
3D Printing, 3D Scanning area (40) will ensure that the two areas feel like a joined space, and
that interesting work in the Electronics, 3D Printing, 3D Scanning area can be viewed from the
Learning Centre, but that scheduled instruction in the Learning Centre does not disrupt and is
not disrupted by work in the Electronics, 3D Printing, 3D Scanning area.
Figure 1. Conceptual example of Learning Centre Space from MIT.
Appendix A- Project Scope Definition: Detailed Design
1-7 | P a g e
1.5.5.5.
Electronics, 3D Printing and Learning Centre Area (40):
The Electronics, 3D Printing and 3D Scanning Area will be accessed by MIDAS users for creation and testing of
projects. It is relatively clean work and interesting to observe. This type of work will be a major focus of the
teaching activities in the adjacent Learning Centre, and it is expected that there will be a visual and physical
flow of MIDAS users between the two spaces, though with restriction of physical and audio flow-through
possible during teaching sessions, conferences and events.
Users of the Electronics, 3D Printing and 3D Scanning Area will require streamlined access to the Work Shop
and Materials Storage Areas (50).
The floor layout of the Electronics, 3D Printing, 3D Scanning Area is to include working area for fixed tools as
per Appendix B- MIDAS Equipment List and Appendix C- MIDAS Facility Drawing.
Electrically, the area should have isolated circuits for all major equipment to allow uninterrupted use. Work
benches are to have 4 plex GCIF protected 20 AMP plugs and high speed internet connections located every
meter along their length.
The Electronics, 3D Printing and 3D Scanning Area is to be designed for public use and teaching, and user
safety considerations are paramount: a power key for the area is required to control power by reception
(Office and Meeting Room Area 20, reception space 101) personnel to minimize potential unauthorized usage
outside of supervised hours. An emergency stop button is to be located at each door, with appropriate
signage. It will cut power to all equipment in the room when pushed.
Work benches with easy-to-clean heat resistant surfaces and shelving are required minimally as follows:
1. Electronics Area: two 1 M X 5 M work benches with shelving above one
2. 3D Printing Area: one 1 M X 4 M work benches with shelving below
3. Laser: one 1M X 2M work bench

1.5.5.6.
Workshop Area & Materials Storage(50)
Rolling work benches will be required to maximize wood and metal workshop space as much as is practical.
These work benches should also be available for Electronic, 3D Printing use (section 1.5.5.5) as space suitable
for large project assembly is constrained in that area.
Electrically, the wood working and metal working areas areas should have isolated circuits for all major
equipment listed above to allow uninterrupted use. Work benches are to have 4 plex GCIF protected 20 AMP
plugs at every meter along length.
Wood working and metals working areas are to each include compressed air piping connections at each
workstation and piece of fixed piece of equipment (see Appendix C- MIDAS Facility Drawing). Connections are
to be quick-connect system similar to that standardly used in wood working shops. One connection per
workstation and two 50’ retractable air hoses are required. Two stations in each area are to be capable to be
used simultaneously.
As a space intended for public use and teaching, design for safety is imperative. A power key for the entire
workshop area is required to control power by reception (Office and Meeting Room Area 20, reception space
101) personnel to minimize potential unauthorized usage outside of supervised hours. An emergency stop
button is to be located at each door, with appropriate signage. It will cut power to all equipment in the room
when pushed.
The Workshop area is broken into four distinct geographical sections:
Wood Working Shop:
Effective dust collection is imperative in the wood working shop. The woodworking area is to contain the
fugitive dust emissions to the rest of the building through negative pressure of the area and the use of a
localized dust collection system. Air quality is to be maintained through fresh air exchanges as much as
possible to minimize the cost of filtration units. All openings are to have a door or vinyl curtains to aid in
containment.
Localized dust collection system is to have ducts running to each workstation for major dust-generating
equipment. Dust collection system is to be capable of being turned on through actuation of a tool or manual
switch at workstation. Localized dust collection system should be sized so that the Shopbot and two (2) tool
work stations can be in use at a given time. Disposal of dust: ensure capability to remove manually without it
having to be transferred from one container to another.
The preference is for the dust collection unit and a necessary air compressor unit to be located in the
Delivery Bay/Materials Storage area with appropriate connections to the Workshop Area including the
Shopbot enclosure.
Molding and Casting Area:
Appendix A- Project Scope Definition: Detailed Design
1-12 | P a g e
This work space is to include a stainless steel counter with an inset sink with hot and cold water, a fume hood
vented to outside, and a convection hood. The size of the counter is to be a minimum of 1m X 5m. Under
counter is to be open shelving for storage of heavy items. This area should be separated from other work
areas using a vinyl curtain.
Figure 5. Conceptual example of Molding Space from MIT.
Metal Working shop:
The safety shower station should be located in the metal working shop. This area should be discrete from the
molding and casting area for safety reasons.
Materials and Project Storage:
Capacity for materials and project storage is to be located in the delivery bay adjoining the Metal Working
Area. This Material and Project Storage Area is to include the following:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
