±¬ÁÏÍødesign and construction standards
Use and intent of standards
The ±¬ÁÏÍøDesign and Construction Standards establish guidelines and requirements for designing and building new structures and for remodeling existing structures at all ±¬ÁÏÍøfacilities. The standards are a collaboration between the Office of Planning and Construction and Facilities Management Services, in partnership with many other key stakeholders of the college’s built environment.
The standards are intended to create a level of consistency across all projects and to serve as a link between the built environment of all ±¬ÁÏÍøcampuses and ±¬ÁÏÍøgoals for equity, sustainability, and environmental safety. Contractors, professional design services consultants, and ±¬ÁÏÍøstaff will use these standards as a basis for planning and executing design and construction projects.
The Office of Planning and Construction manages the standards document. ±¬ÁÏÍømay consider variances to these standards upon review and written approval by the Office of Planning and Construction Managing Architect. A variance refers to a request for change by a consultant in compliance with the standards. A modification refers to a suggested change in the standards language.
