The Betty Engelstad School of Health and Sciences project, built for the State Public Works Division, the College of Southern Nevada, and Nevada State College, included the new construction of a three-story, 73,079-square-foot educational facility located on the College of Southern Nevada’s campus in Henderson, NV. The facility features modern medical laboratories, advising offices, a campus library, simulation laboratories, classrooms, a demonstration garden, a conference space, and collaborative study areas for students. The project also includes building systems comprised of a four-pipe hydronic heating and cooling, lab air valve exhaust, biological safety cabinets, fume hoods, and specific, measurable, appropriate, realistic, and timebound classroom walls. The building was constructed on a concrete foundation supported by footings with a structural frame comprised of cold-formed metal, load-bearing masonry, and structural steel, an exterior insulation and finish system, masonry, and siding exterior, and a single-ply roof.
