Dear Sandels Building Colleagues and Students,
Our Facilities teams and contractors continue to make steady progress in addressing concerns regarding the Sandels Building.
I’m pleased to report the following activities have taken place since my last update:
- Building envelope improvements located near the Dean’s suite have been expedited ahead of the larger envelope renewal.
- The construction manager, FSU project manager and the FSU building code official are coordinating work permitting requirements for the remaining projects.
- The construction manager is preparing pricing and schedules for installation of the new fume hoods and mechanical equipment on the fourth floor as well as the associated architectural work.
- Basement upgrades are anticipated to begin after work on the fourth floor is complete. The basement flooring finish materials are scheduled to ship next week, and installation will begin after removal of remaining specialized equipment.
- Roof replacement and building envelope improvement projects are in the planning stage and estimated to begin later this semester.
- New carpet for the second and third floors is expected to ship Sept. 7, and installation is planned immediately upon receipt. Work will be conducted after hours to avoid impacts on classes and faculty/staff workday.
If you have questions that have not been addressed in an update, on the Sandels Response website or in the FAQs, please email sandelsresponse@fsu.edu, and we will answer your individual questions to the best of our ability.
Best regards,
Jim Clark
Provost and Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs
