2 Getting Started/Lab Programming MODULE 2 LAB PROGRAMMING October 2013
2 Getting Started/Lab Programming 1. Getting Started 2. Scoping the Project 3. Lab Programming • What is programming? • Information gathering • Organizing and presenting data P2
2 Getting Started/Lab Programming Getting Started • Project Manager - Owner representative - Responsible for budget and schedule - Conduit to the organization - Single point of communication • Key User Representative for entire project or at least for each user group / department • Identify key users to inform design team on their requirements P3
2 Getting Started/Lab Programming Who? Develop The List Of Key Stakeholders: • Owner • Lab supply personnel • Academic Faculty • Building Facility personnel • Senior Researchers (PI’s) • IT managers / IT maintenance • Lab Managers • Security Department • Graduate Students • Building Maintenance personnel • Occupational Health and Safety departments P4
2 Getting Started/Lab Programming Develop A Series Of Committees For STEERING Feedback And Decision Making COMMITTEE GRAND USER • Building Committee COMMITTEE • “Grand” User Committee SPECIFIC SPECIFIC SPECIFIC 1 2 3 • Specific User Committees COMMITTEES • One key decision maker and one conduit for information flow STEERING COMMITTEE • One clear line of communication flow • One key authority chain for committee PROJECT USERS CONSULTANT MANAGER decisions. Are they advisory or do they make decisions? INFORMATION FLOW • What happens when flow is subverted? P5
2 Getting Started/Lab Programming • Consultant Team - Programmer - Architect and Engineers - Experienced firms and people (not learning on your project) P6
2 Getting Started/Lab Programming • Consider construction procurement model - eg. Design, Bid, Build Construction Management Construction Management at Risk Design Build - Affects design process - Affects schedule - Can assist with buildability issues & costing - Can affect quality of end product P7
2 Getting Started/Lab Programming • Scheduling Workshop - With the entire team Owner, Consultants and Builder - Establish completion date - Together build milestones, deliverables and action dates - Team building P8
2 Getting Started/Lab Programming Scoping the Project Understand Key Drivers • Research grant • Private donor • Large pharmaceutical • Venture capital • Company expansion • Special funding programs • Government funding P9
2 Getting Started/Lab Programming Understand The Rules Of The Game • Organization’s policies? • If a research grant there are significant reporting – area rules; room • Landlord requirements? naming conventions • What about other requirements – LEED; University processes; site master- planning SFU SERVICE SPACE FUTURE CREM ENTRY FOYER LEVEL 6000 CREM MAIN CFI Area CREM Diagram ENTRY P10
2 Getting Started/Lab Programming Establish Key Goals with Project Manager / Client Group • Meeting with key stakeholders • Whose agenda is the loudest? • Are there un-stated elements? • Phasing? • Sustainability? P11
2 Getting Started/Lab Programming Work With The Budget • BMW or Chevy? • Does funding come with a time line? ? P12
2 Getting Started/Lab Programming Lab Programming Program of Requirements PRELIMINARY SPACE LIST Kwantlen Polytechnic University Langley, BC PRELIMINARY SPACE LIST PROPOSED EXISTING AREA S.M. AREA S.M. Existing Room What A Program Is Not: LABS: All labs should incorporate the following: Maximize storage • • Only just numbers or areas Adequate lighting is important • • Safe traffic flow patterns are critical • Labs design should incorporate sustainable features • Plan or drawing of space Room: 1325 Biology/Horticulture/Sustainability Science 187 187 • Fixed benches with electrical outlets and one sink per bench Fumehood • Will be used as a teaching space • for theory and technique • Space for large equipment such as salt water tanks, fridges, etc Access to prep space and to the • bunker storage site Room: 1345 Chemistry/Horticulture 106 106 (existing) Benches with gas, air, power • and water • Fumehoods • Distilled water Access to prep space and to the • bunker storage site • Access to balance room • Access to analytical equipment room Room: 1365 Environmental Protection Lab/Soil 137 98 Chemistry Benches with gas and air; one • side of bench to have a sink running along entire length with 5 compartments and the opposite side of the bench to have a one compartment sink CHERNOFF THOMPSON ARCHITECTS Project 29032 February 10, 2010 Space List P13
2 Getting Started/Lab Programming What A Program Is: • Defines the problem, doesn’t solve it • An understanding of the needs University of Washington Ecogenomics Lab P14
2 Getting Started/Lab Programming Levels of Programming The A-3 ACU – CAGEWASH University SCIENCE BUILDING of Victoria Page 4 4 COMPONENT PLANNING CRITERIA • Strategic Functional Relationship Diagram • Master • Functional • General Space Planning • Detailed Space Planning • Room by Room Data specific information Space Requirements Ref Space Units nsm/unit nsm Remarks 01 Dirty Cage Wash 1 62 62 Cage washer 02 Clean Cage Wash 1 50 50 Autoclave 03 Clean Staging/Storage 1 23 23 Filling stations 04 05 Total 135 Chernoff Thompson Architects 15/04/05 Project # 24040.1 P15
2 Getting Started/Lab Programming Information In Program LABORATORY Wet Chemistry • Clear and usable by architects FUNCTIONAL from other areas to avoid cross contamination and engineers RELATIONSHIPS -Leach area; could be near Digestion and not in wash-up as is currently -Cyanide room; a separate room to avoid cross-contamination -need transferring stations independent from digestion hoods for increased safety and productivity • Practical KEY ISSUES -repetitive nature of weighing task requires ergonomic study -weigh room is dusty; currently Hepa Vacuums at each station for use by staff -prefer the sample box storage in one area in the room for easy access and alphabetizing -the sample box storage area includes 2 days active storage -sunlight on balances can affect readings • Not too long -green screens of weighing computers need careful lighting coordination -a separate wash-up room required -storage for racks and Teflon tubes -Norm station has radioactive material under plastic cover -transferring from flasks done under canopy-style fume hoods; further study Can include: on this process needed -Digestion is a very corrosive environment -fume hoods are all perchloric-style -samples are stored under canopy-style fume hood; need to study if this is best storage method • Appendices -Hot Blocks are located in fume hoods and require significant power -independent acid bottle changing station -bigger bubbler station to hold 3 sample carts AREAS Spaces Net Area Characteristics • Room data sheets (ft²) Weighing: Standards storage room 32 122 -16’ long shelves secured storage room Weigh stations (30@6’X8’) 1440 1031 -need new ergonomic design, need central vacuum (flat screen?) Equipment storage 80 80 -incl. storage area for supplies and gloves Small PC stations (4 3 @40ft²) 160 110 • Equipment cut sheets Special samples desk 40 40 Norm station 120 20 -sits on 2 desks (small area) 10’ x 4’; weighing bench Equip = 7’ x 2’, sits on work bench PPE Storage 133 below work benches 64 40 -to be near weighing area Supervisor workstation 64 45 Weighing manager workstation 2000 1488 Net to Gross ratio = 1.1% (walls, corridors, etc. within the Subtotal Weighing department) Weighing Gross Area = 2200ft² Ac- 1621 tual = 2315ft² x 1.1% = 1783 Sample Program Page 1 P16
