MAJOR PROJECTS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY September 2014

• Safety – The total recordable incident rates (TRIR) for calendar years 2012 and 2013 were 1.41 and 0.98

respectively. The TRIR to date for 2014 is 1.42 with 563,500 hours worked. CPO and its contractors have worked over 315,000 hours since May 2nd without a lost-time incident.

• Animal Research and Care Facility – A preliminary design development submittal set is under review by the project user group. CPO and their consultant have been reviewing comments received on the draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and have been preparing the responses to be included in the final EIS. CPO’s permit expediting consultant has been working with the City of Seattle DPD on prioritizing review and approval the various permits required for the project in support of the agreed to, phased design and permitting process. The project team has developed options and preliminary budget pricing to construct a new section of utility tunnel that will be required to route chilled water piping and emergency power feeders from the new West Central Utility Plant (West CUP) to serve the ARCF.

• Bothell Phase 3 – The work on utility repairs near SR522 has been completed. The boring contractor encountered an obstruction underneath the roadbed and remedial action had to be taken. The construction of a minor modification to one of the 30-seat classrooms is virtually complete. A ‘christening’ of the building was held and classes were held on the opening day of the fall quarter.

• Bothell Student Activities Center – Construction is underway. Site clearing and grubbing are complete. Shoring on the west side of the project is completed. The access road has been completed allowing for mass excavation. The second of three phases of bid packages were opened. Amendment two has been issued to incorporate the work into the construction contract.

• Burke-Gilman Trail Corridor – Redesign of Phase I continued. This includes filling in the Lewis Lane Bridge, instead of renovating and expanding it, realigning the trail adjacent to the Kincaid Hall loading dock to eliminate revising the dock area, reducing the length of the mixing zones, eliminating the concrete transition striping at the mixing zones and eliminating any unnecessary landscape work. Transportation Services continued to look at alternatives to the custom design bike shelter and enclosure to reduce the construction costs.

• Fluke Hall Renovation – New meetings with the project team, architect and contractor were held with the primary purpose of reviewing current status of the project scope, cost estimate, design and building permit. Work to draft an update to the project agreement is still in process as is the memo of understanding to document the working relationship between the Center for Commercialization (C4C) and the College of Engineering (COE). CPO has begun initial conversations with the design and construction team on next steps and new schedule for completing the construction documents and working to reduce the estimated project cost.

• Housing-Maple and Terry Halls – The project has transitioned from concrete placement to wood framing, with the first wood framed floor complete on Terry Hall. Concrete decks on the Maple portion of the site were marked as wood framing begins on the Maple portion of the project. The 12th Ave Plaza concrete was placed and stress tested as planned. The street improvement work on Campus Parkway, including the crosswalk, landscape median in Campus Parkway, and the 12th Ave. Plaza was completed as planned.

• Life Sciences Building – The program and massing of the building advanced as planned including a schedule milestone with the successful presentation to the Architectural Commission and Landscape Advisory Board. The preliminary cost report was refined and used to inform program and elements of the building to meet the project budget. The preliminary Geotechnical report was completed. The preliminary master plan report was completed by the design team.

• Medical Center Expansion Phase II – Phased work was completed in 4SA, 7NN, 7SE & 8SE and turned over to

the UWMC during September. The next phase of work in 4SA started early, due to availability of the space. Planning for the next phase of work in 7SE & 8SE continued. Work in the 2nd phase of 7NN continued, and work in the 3rd (final) phase is underway. Floor infill work in the Montlake Tower on 5SA, 6SA & 7SA was completed. Mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) rough-in work continued on 6 different floors of the Montlake Tower. Metal stud wall installation is underway on 3 floors of the Montlake Tower. Offsite prefabrication MEP work continued in the Mechanical Contractor’s shop. 3-D modeling coordination continued for all MEP work in the Montlake Tower.

iii

• Montlake Triangle Project – The lower Vista work progressed with the spreading of topsoil along the sidewalk and the planting of trees and shrubs. The area between the lower plaza and the bridge will remain uncompleted until the land bridge is completed. The land bridge work has progressed with abutments backfilled and bridge decking and support work installed. Formwork for the end diaphragms and the rebar installation has begun as well. Work on the triangle involved geofabric and gravel being laid to enable installation of sidewalks along main body. Perimeter site wall foundations were placed along Montlake Blvd and miscellaneous gabion installations along Pacific street stairs and Pacific Place roadway.

• NanoEngineering and Sciences Building (NESB) - The Building Committee meetings have been placed on hold pending a resolution on the language of the Project Agreement. Work continues on completing the shell and core Construction Documents. The preconstruction services agreement has also been on hold until a final Project Agreement can be completed. A Scope and Fee have been submitted and agreed upon and are ready for approval once the Project Agreement is executed.

• New Burke Museum – The schematic design was approved by the Architectural Commission on September 29, 2014 A cost estimate was prepared for a proposed upgrade of 43rd Street to include re-grading from Memorial Way to 15th Avenue NE. The project was presented to the UW Board of Regents and the use of the GC/CM contracting method and the authority to delegate award of the construction contract was approved.

• Police Department Facility – Coordination with the West Campus Utility project has begun. An underground storage tank was removed from behind the 3937 house. It was discovered that the tank has leaked and plans are being made for additional testing and sequencing for the removal of the contaminated soils with the house removal and site demolition.

• Tacoma University YMCA Student Center – Installation of the climbing wall continued, and the wood gym flooring has continued to acclimate to the building environment in the gym in advance of its installation. Extensive interior finish work is underway throughout the building, including doors and frames, tile installation, painting, sport flooring, ceiling tile, drywall and painting, plumbing fixtures, light fixtures, and mechanical diffusers. Elevator installation is ongoing. Metal siding and curtain wall trim is largely complete, and the building has been connected to its permanent power supply.

• Tacoma Urban Solutions Center – Miller Hull completed a comprehensive predesign study report. Final proposals for the GCCM Selection were submitted on August 27, 2014 with Mortenson the winner. A team meeting with Mortenson, Miller Hull and Capital Projects was held on September 10, 2014 to share the predesign report with Mortenson. Mortenson is developing a work plan for preconstruction services and Miller Hull is developing the design contract scope. The goal is to have both contracts completed by early October. CPO negotiated the Project Agreement with the client and has submitted the agreement for approval.

• wǝɫǝbʔaltxʷ (Intellectual House) – The building facade continues to progress with building dry-in milestone planned for mid-October 2014. The roof and wall components of the building were completed. Mechanical, electrical and plumbing interior rough-in will advance from exterior work to interior installation.

• West Campus Utility Plant – Project kickoff meeting was conducted. Limited and preliminary site and equipment layout schemes were developed. Coordination with dependent and neighboring projects was conducted. The hydraulic modeling effort was brought near conclusion and a draft scope of distribution system improvements was created. Overall permitting strategy was further developed and the application to the Seattle Department of Transportation (for input regarding road improvement requirements) was submitted.

Animal Research and Care Facility Project #203928

September 2014 Project Manager: Kurt Jensen

PROJECT DESCRIPTION In 2010, a University of Washington work group charged with developing a master plan for the University’s core research facilities identified the need to develop future facilities capable of supporting the UW commitment to outstanding research, education, and animal care. The work group also identified the need to increase the animal census at the UW and to implement a centralized animal care and procedure operating model. During a recent and more in-depth UW Animal Care Facilities Master Plan Feasibility Study, the proposed solutions to increase animal census capacity and the process for implementing the new centralized animal care and procedure operating model were examined in more detail. As a result of the study, the work group made several recommendations, including construction of a new Animal Research and Care Facility (ARCF). The ARCF project is intended to provide a capacity solution for UW animal research for the next ten years.

The feasibility study identified a site in the Portage Bay Vista, just east of the William H. Foege Building, for a new, state-of-the-art ARCF. The concept plan for this facility is a two-story, below-grade building, connecting to both the Foege building and Hitchcock Hall at the first level below grade. The building will provide flexible housing for large and small animals (principally rodents) and non-human primates. The study also identified a

1

Animal Research and Care Facility, #203928 preliminary program of space types, including laboratories, procedure rooms, imaging facilities, cage and equipment wash facilities, storage, and other support spaces. The planned size of the ARCF is 83,000 gross square feet (GSF). The project architect is a partnership of Zimmer-Gunsul-Frasca and Flad Architects (ZGF/Flad). ZGF is located in Seattle and Flad is based in San Francisco, California. The general contractor/construction manager (GC/CM) is Skanska USA Building, located in Seattle. PROJECT STATUS SUMMARY Schedule Overview

Schedule Variance Design is currently running slightly ahead of the original project schedule. Work Accomplished This Period The design development phase is moving forward on schedule. A preliminary design development submittal set is under review by the project user group. The design team will incorporate these preliminary comments into a final design development review set to be issued in October. CPO and their consultant have been reviewing comments received on the draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and have been preparing the responses to be included in the final EIS.

CPO’s permit expediting consultant has been working with the City of Seattle DPD on prioritizing review and approval the various permits required for the project in support of the agreed to, phased design and permitting process.

Bids for the early works, demolition, shoring and excavation were opened. The bids were on estimate, with the exception of the excavation bid, which was approximately $725,000 over estimate. The contractor and design team are continuing to work with the Building Committee to prioritize the cost saving alternatives that have been developed to achieve the project budget if other bid packages come in over budget.

2

Animal Research and Care Facility, #203928 At the request of Planning and Budgeting and Campus Engineering, the project team has developed options and preliminary budget pricing to construct a new section of utility tunnel that will be required to route chilled water piping and emergency power feeders from the new West Central Utility Plant (West CUP) to serve the ARCF and other facilities in the existing Magnuson Health Sciences Center.

Plans for Next 30 Days The Design Development phase will be completed and drawing and specifications will be distributed to UW process partners for review and comments. The project cost estimate will be updated by the contractor based on the design development submittal and outcome of the initial bid packages.

The contractor will mobilize on site and begin installation of the construction trailer camp that will be located in the W 24 parking lot. Other preliminary construction activities will also commence on the project site. The start of the early site work is contingent on the timely issuance of the required permits by the City of Seattle DPD.

The project team will continue to develop the design and budget estimate to design and construct the new utility tunnel section for routing new chilled water and emergency power from the West CUP and other utilities from the existing utility tunnel to the ARCF.

PROJECT BUDGET & COST Cost Overview There is no change to the project budget this time period.

3

Animal Research and Care Facility, #203928

CHANGES IN SCOPE It has been determined that a new section of utility tunnel will be required between existing tunnel vault SW-1 and the utility tunnel located at the south side of Hitchcock Hall. The new tunnel section will provide pathway for new chilled water piping and emergency power from the West CUP and other utilities that exist within the tunnel system to the ARCF. Since the new tunnel section will be routed through the ARCF job site and the construction needs to be scheduled and coordinated with the ARCF construction; the ARCF project team has been asked to add this work to their project scope. Optimization of the design for the new tunnel section and development of the total cost of this work is in process. Funding for this work will be transferred to the project from the West CUP distribution project once the total cost of the work has been determined. BUYOUT STATUS, SAFETY STATISTICS, AND CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION Not applicable at this time. OPPORTUNITIES & CHALLENGES The site has subsurface water runoff from upper campus, and much of the finished building will be below the water table. This will require special consideration by the design team relating to the building envelope and waterproofing systems, as well as additional efforts by the contractor during construction. The sloping site provides opportunities to bring natural light into the facility at strategic locations to improve the work environment for the staff. The below-grade construction will connect to the Foege Building, the Foege loading dock, and potentially Hitchcock Hall. The project team will need to address the potential impact on these existing buildings and associated operations during construction. Locating the air intakes and building exhaust is a challenge with a below-grade building. The building design must respect long-term plans for expanding the underground facility and for a future above-grade building adjacent to Hitchcock Hall. The facility design will need to be flexible to adapt to future trends in animal research and to changing regulatory requirements. It will be challenging to find the right balance between optimum flexibility and project budget constraints. This project also presents opportunities to enhance and enliven the Portage Bay Vista open space that will be restored following the building construction and to improve the connection across NE Pacific Street to the upper campus.

4

Animal Research and Care Facility, #203928 The project may face budget challenges due to the active Seattle construction market and bidding climate. Skanska and the project team are actively monitoring the situation and working with subcontractors to encourage broad subcontractor participation and competitive bidding.

UW Bothell Phase 3 Project #202235

September 2014 Project Manager: Steve Tatge

Construction Manager: Mark Sweeters

PROJECT DESCRIPTION This project will provide approximately 75,000 gross square feet of additional academic space to support new and expanded degree programs at the Bothell (UWB) campus. The additional space will also accommodate an increased capacity of at least 600 new full-time equivalent (FTE) students. This will provide for general capacity expansion, including instructional labs necessary to support new science and technology programs, a 200-seat lecture hall/performance space, and classrooms sized and configured to meet the needs of the lower division curriculum that was initiated in 2006. The facility will include an efficient mix of new space to foster collaboration and meet the needs of the campus as a four-year institution. The increased capacity will facilitate development of programs specifically targeted toward career paths in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM), and health. Campus infrastructure and site work improvements are also included in the project.

UW Bothell Phase 3, #202235

The project architect is THA Architecture, Inc., and the landscape architect is Walker Macy Landscape Architects, both of Portland, Oregon. The general contractor/ construction manager (GC/CM) is Lease-Crutcher-Lewis of Seattle. PROJECT STATUS SUMMARY Schedule Overview

Schedule Variance None at this time. Work Accomplished This Period The work on utility repairs near SR522 is nearly complete. The boring contractor encountered an obstruction underneath the roadbed and remedial action had to be taken. The construction of a minor modification to one of the 30-seat classrooms is virtually complete. A ‘christening’ of the building was held and classes were held on the opening day of the fall quarter. Plans for the Next 30 Days The utility repair work will be finished and closeout activities will continue.

*Instead of issuing RFI’s, this project team has resolved contractor questions in weekly BIM coordination meetings. This method provides an immediate solution for the issue raised by the contractor, communicates the solution to all parties simultaneously, and instantly incorporates the solution into the current 3D model. OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES The project has been tremendously successful in leveraging coordination through the Building Information Model as a means for reducing conflicts, change orders, and schedule impacts. The investment in creating and using the BIM tool has paid dividends many times over and will ultimately lead to substantial savings which can be devoted to other planned campus infrastructure, such as the Corporation Yard.

UW Bothell Student Activities Center Project #203835

September 2014 Project Manager: Eric McArthur

Rendering of approach to the building from across Campus Way PROJECT DESCRIPTION This project will construct a new Student Activities Center (SAC) at UW Bothell (UWB) to provide spaces for food service, student leadership offices and clubs, fitness and recreation, casual study, and, potentially, an events center. The facility will serve both UWB and Cascadia College. UWB has a growing enrollment of over 4,200 students (3,800 FTE) and has rapidly evolved into a four-year institution after initially accepting only upperclassmen and graduate students. The campus has opened its first student housing facility, and newly leased and renovated space in both the Beardslee Building and Husky Hall have further expanded the campus footprint. Given the enrollment growth and expanded facilities, the student population is currently underserved by traditional campus amenities, such as a student union building and fitness facilities. The proposed building, to be located immediately south of (and connected to) the existing North Creek Events Center (NCEC), will be approximately 35,000 gross square feet. LMN Architects of Seattle is the project architect. The general contractor/construction manager (GC/CM) is Skanska USA Building, Inc. of Seattle.

UW Bothell SAC, #203835

PROJECT STATUS SUMMARY Schedule Overview

Schedule Variance Building Permit issuance from the City of Bothell has lagged but the permit was received on August 27th, nearly two weeks later than anticipated. With favorable weather and working conditions the contractor was able to complete early tasks ahead of schedule, bringing the project back on track Work Accomplished This Period Construction is underway. Site clearing and grubbing are complete. Shoring on the west side of the project is completed. The access road has been completed allowing for mass excavation. The second of three phases of bid packages were opened. Amendment two has been issued to incorporate the work into the construction contract. Plans for the Next 30 Days The remaining bid packages were rescheduled for early October 2014. Foundation work will begin, and installation of some site utilities will be partially completed. We will execute contract amendments for the most recently bid work.

14

UW Bothell SAC, #203835

PROJECT BUDGET AND COST Cost Overview The project cost has been burdened by two factors. Design costs have gone up to address the additional requirements to secure approval from design reviews and permitting authorities, and construction costs are expected to be over budget based on the recent bidding results. The current heated construction market is exerting upward pressure on pricing. The bids to date include the students’ full desired audio-visual package, and they will review scope for potential reductions. The project will proceed with the goal that construction contingency performance will be better than forecast and that the overage could be reduced, but both UWB and CCC have provided assurances that additional funding will be provided if necessary.

15

UW Bothell SAC, #203835

CHANGES IN SCOPE None anticipated this period. BUYOUT STATUS, SAFETY STATISTICS, AND CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION The GC/CM has broken the Construction Documents set into three ‘bundles’ of bid packages, the first two of which have been bid out. In the aggregate, the buyout to date has come in over the estimate and consequently the project is forecast as over budget. Approximately 90% of the project scope has been bought, so the remaining buyout risk is modest. OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES Challenges for this project include the compact site size, sloping site, varied and changing program requirements, and budget limitations. Having two institutions on the co-located campus participate in the design process is also a unique challenge.

Burke-Gilman Trail Corridor Project #203801

September 2014 Project Manager: Randy Everett

Construction Manager: Jeff Huebler

PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Burke-Gilman Trail Corridor (BGTC), constructed in 1978, is a rails-to-trails bicycle and pedestrian thoroughfare that runs through the Seattle Campus west of Montlake Boulevard and north of NE Pacific Street. The trail is widely used by bicycle commuters coming to the University and passing through campus, and it serves as the backbone of a regional bicycling and pedestrian network in the northern part of Seattle. These multiple uses and cross-traffic between the campus community and the BGTC create conflicts and safety issues that need to be addressed for effective pedestrian and bicycle movement on and around the trail. The number of users on the trail has far exceeded initial projections. This project will develop design documents for the entire length of the University-owned portion of the BGTC and will construct Phase 1, Campus Reach, which will improve the trail from a point just west of the Rainier Vista to the east side of the 15th Avenue NE intersection. Phase 2 is the remainder of the trail within the University. Phase 2 work is limited to the design for now. It is anticipated that construction work to improve the remaining sections will be accomplished in multiple phases, as funding allows. The project landscape architect is PLACE Studio, located in Portland, Oregon.

Burke-Gilman Trail Corridor, #203801

PROJECT STATUS SUMMARY Schedule Overview

Schedule Variance The project schedules for Phase 1 and 2 continue to slip. The overrun on the Phase 1 work requires a redesign and the Phase 2 design work is temporarily suspended pending this redesign of Phase 1. The delay on Phase 1 and 2 is anticipated to continue for a few more months as Phase 1 is redesigned to meet the budget. The building permit for Phase 1 also is delayed while a Heron Rookery Management Plan is prepared for approval by the Washington State Department of Fisheries & Wildlife. Work Accomplished This Period Redesign of Phase I continued. This includes filling in the Lewis Lane Bridge, instead of renovating and expanding it, realigning the trail adjacent to the Kincaid Hall loading dock to eliminate revising the dock area, reducing the length of the mixing zones, eliminating the concrete transition striping at the mixing zones and eliminating any unnecessary landscape work. Transportation Services continued to look at alternatives to the custom design bike shelter and enclosure to reduce the construction costs. Plans for Next 30 Days Redesign of Phase 1 will continue. Work on Phase 2 may be limited to permitting and geotechnical work, pending completion of Phase 1. Transportation Services will continue to develop a strategy for the bike shelter and enclosure.

Bid Not Awarded; Project Currently in Redesign

Burke-Gilman Trail Corridor, #203801

PROJECT BUDGET & COST Cost Overview The project budget is $6.1 million, which covers the design of both phases, plus Phase 1 construction. The current cost forecast is $8.3 million, which is 25 percent over budget. Elements of the increased project cost include higher than anticipated costs for the bike shelters, escalation, contaminated soils, and the Mercer Court mock-up. Exploration of value engineering ideas continues, as well as development of bid alternates. The project is funded by UW Transportation Services (UWTS) and a matching federal grant. UWTS has confirmed that additional funding will be provided to cover the higher estimated project cost. A total of $11.3 million in funds have been received to date.

CHANGES IN SCOPE None anticipated this period. BUYOUT STATUS A construction contract for Phase 1,Campus Reach, advertised in June 2014 and was not awarded in July, because all bids were over budget.

OPPORTUNITIES & CHALLENGES UW Transportation Services would like to include the Pend Oreille underpass as part of this project. The Pend Oreille scope of work is estimated at $6-$7 million (project cost). The potential for contaminated soils remediation has proven to be a budget challenge. Phasing and pedestrian traffic will drive the construction schedule. Alternate bus stops will need to be addressed, as well as overpass shutdowns along NE Pacific Street.

Fluke Hall Renovation Project #203880

September 2014 Project Manager: Kurt Jensen

PROJECT DESCRIPTION This project will renovate the interior of Fluke Hall to serve as a long-term core UW research facility supporting academic research, industry partnership, and a commercialization incubator. The scope of work includes upgrades to the building infrastructure (HVAC, plumbing, and electrical) to support laboratory and cleanroom tenant improvements on the first and second floors. Portions of this building will remain occupied during construction, requiring the work to be performed in multiple phases. The project architect is HDR Architecture. The general contractor/construction manager (GC/CM) is Sellen Construction. Both firms are located in Seattle. PROJECT STATUS SUMMARY Preliminary Schedule Overview Predesign: April 2012 to November 2012 Design: December 2012 To Be Determined Construction: To Be Determined Schedule Variance The scheduled date for completion of construction continues to slip and is now over a year behind the original project schedule developed in the predesign phase. The further delay continues to be caused by the need for additional time to resolve differences between the scope, the approved budget, and the cost forecast. The schedule will need to be re-evaluated based on decisions regarding the project scope and budget.

21

Fluke Hall, #203880

Work Accomplished This Period New meetings with the project team, architect and contractor were held with the primary purpose of reviewing current status of the project scope, cost estimate, design and building permit. Work to draft an update to the project agreement is still in process as is the memo of understanding to document the working relationship between the Center for Commercialization (C4C) and the College of Engineering (COE). CPO has begun initial conversations with the design and construction team on next steps and new schedule for completing the construction documents and working to reduce the estimated project cost. Plans for Next 30 Days CPO will continue to work with the end users and design and construction team to develop plans and a schedule for completing the design and constructing the project. The project team will continue to work with stakeholders and other UW process partners to develop strategies for achieving priority project goals while reducing the estimated project cost. Preparations for requesting approval of a revised budget by the Board of regents will continue. PROJECT BUDGET & COST Cost Overview The Board of Regents approved a project budget of $28.5 million in May 2012 with the understanding that this preliminary budget may change following completion of the schematic design phase. The administration committed to returning to the BOR for final budget approval prior to start of construction. The predesign study indicated all of the planned scope may not be achievable within the available funding, which was later confirmed. Cost reduction alternatives have been developed through value engineering (VE). The project team agreed to accept the majority of the VE recommendations, resulting in a total project cost forecast and new target budget of $31.5 million. At the end of the design development (DD) phase, the cost estimate, along with code interpretations from the City, showed that the anticipated VE cost savings could not be fully realized. In addition, the result of field investigation by the MC/CM and EC/CM subcontractors discovered additional information that has also added to the estimated construction cost. The estimated total project cost is now approximately $38 million. This estimate was based on a construction start date in April 2014. Current projections for escalation in construction costs increase the risk that current schedule delay will cause this number to go higher.

CHANGES IN SCOPE None anticipated this period. BUYOUT STATUS, SAFETY STATISTICS, AND CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION Not applicable at this time. OPPORTUNITIES & CHALLENGES This project presents an opportunity to improve the quality and reliability of the mechanical and electrical systems supporting the cleanroom and laboratory uses and to reduce ongoing facility operations and maintenance costs. Use of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and the collaborative GC/CM process during design and construction enhance the opportunity for the design team to maximize the project scope, quality, and schedule to avoid changes during construction. Challenges include successfully implementing the scope and cost reduction measures required to bring the project cost within budget. The requirement for the existing occupants to remain in the building during construction is a significant challenge for the design team and the contractors. Developing a phasing plan and strategy to allow for continued operation of the labs and cleanrooms during the renovation is complicating the design and puts added pressure on the project budget and schedule. Continuing schedule delays are increasing the risk that escalating construction costs will further impact the project budget.

Housing–Maple and Terry Halls Project #203512

September 2014 Project Manager: Troy Stahlecker Construction Manager: Steve Folk

Perspective of Maple Hall, looking toward northwest from Lincoln Ave PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project scope includes demolition of the existing Center Building and Terry Hall and construction of two new residential buildings named Maple and Terry Halls. The new seven-story buildings will include five stories of housing consisting of two-bedroom suites with private bathrooms. The lower two floors of each building will be occupied by Housing and Food Services (HFS) administrative offices, common space for students, and some additional two-bedroom suites. A below-grade parking garage connecting to the Lander Hall garage and loading dock will extend below Maple and Terry Halls. The new facility will total 390,000 gross square feet and provide 1,090 beds. The sustainability goal is to achieve LEED silver certification. Originally, Terry Hall and the 1101 Café/Center building located on NE Campus Parkway, immediately west of Lander Hall were planned for a renovation. The buildings were constructed in 1952 and needed substantial infrastructure replacement and improvements. Costly seismic and infrastructure upgrades, as well as current high-rise code requirements, demonstrated that new construction would be a more cost-effective option. This change also presents an opportunity to better integrate these facilities into the vision of the west of 15th Avenue NE master plan and to significantly improve the student life experience in the residence halls. Mithun is the project architect and landscape architect. W.G. Clark is the general contractor/construction manager (GC/CM). Both firms are located in Seattle

Maple-Terry Halls, #203512

PROJECT STATUS SUMMARY Schedule Overview

Schedule Variance Due to additional hazardous materials abatement, delays due to building demolition and delays due to transmission failure of the tower crane, several days were lost. There strategic overtime of the concrete and wood framing work the construction schedule anticipates making up the lost time by December. Work Accomplished This Period The project has transitioned from concrete placement to wood framing, with the first wood framed floor complete on Terry Hall. Concrete decks on the Maple portion of the site were marked as wood framing begins on the Maple portion of the project. The 12th Ave Plaza concrete was placed and stress tested as planned. The street improvement work on Campus Parkway, including the crosswalk, landscape median in Campus Parkway, and the 12th Ave. Plaza was completed as planned. The construction team continues at an accelerated pace taking advantage of sequencing opportunities whenever possible to optimize the construction schedule.

26

Maple-Terry Halls, #203512

Plans for Next 30 Days Concrete placement will transition to wood framing on the entire project. The 12th Ave Plaza work will conclude and the Plaza will be returned for construction vehicle circulation. Selective overtime will be used with wood framing activities to further advance the schedule in anticipation of rain delays associated with the dry in of the roof this coming fall/winter. Mechanical, electrical and plumbing rough-in work is advancing ahead of schedule, due largely to the success of the preconstruction Building Information Modeling (BIM) efforts. PROJECT BUDGET AND COST Cost Overview As a result of favorable subcontract bids and a reduced furniture forecast, the project cost forecast is $123 million compared to the project budget of $133 million. The project budget includes HFS purchases of furnishings, fixtures, and equipment. Project funding is from the University’s internal lending program.

OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES Early selection of the mechanical and electrical subcontractors, along with early bidding for the sprinkler and storefront glazing system, has allowed those subcontractors to participate in the completion of the construction documents. This early involvement is improving coordination of the work, which will reduce change orders during the construction phase. Based on soil and groundwater testing, PCE was discovered in a monitoring well on the site. Remediation has increased the cost of the excavation and will possibly require long-term treatment of the groundwater in the footing drains.

Life Sciences Building

Project #204746 September 2014

Project Manager: Troy Stahlecker

PROJECT DESCRIPTION The College of Arts and Sciences Life Sciences Building project site is a combination of the existing greenhouses and landscaped area located east of Kincaid Hall, and the area bounded by NE East Stevens Way to the north, the landscaped area just north of the MHSC T-Wing overpass, and the Burke Gilman Trail to the south. The Life Sciences Building (LSB) will accommodate new laboratory and office space to allow the Department of Biology to increase its faculty size to meet major increases in undergraduate student demand. In addition, a new greenhouse of approximately 20,000 – 25,000 GSF will be constructed as part of the LSB project. The existing greenhouse and associated buildings will be demolished and the LSB of approximately 169,000 GSF. It is anticipated that the LSB will have five floors above grade with a mechanical penthouse and 1-2 below grade floors to support 30 – 40 principal investigators with lab space, associated offices and conference spaces, 2-3 authentic undergraduate research/teaching laboratories, growth chambers, and animal care facilities. The LSB, together with a new, larger greenhouse to replace the current 65-year old greenhouse, offers the Department of Biology and its faculty the opportunity to take its truly integrated approach to Biology and its highly collaborative culture to a new level. The LSB will allow Biology to hire 10-12 new faculty members and strengthen key areas of interdisciplinary research by bringing together faculty, postdocs, graduate students, and undergraduates with overlapping research interests. Perkins + Will is the project architect and is located in Seattle.

UW Medical Center Expansion Phase II Montlake Tower Project #204110

September 2014 Project Manager: Ross Pouley

Construction Manager: Bob Dillon

PROJECT DESCRIPTION This project will provide the interior structure, systems, and finishes for a second phase of expansion at the University of Washington Medical Center (UWMC). This phase will increase safety and quality of service to patients in a modern, high-performance environment. It will allow a more streamlined, integrated organizational structure for the interventional services, including surgery, cardiology, and diagnostic radiology, as well as peripheral supporting areas. Additional in-patient beds will also be provided. To support this goal, the Phase II project will build out 107,000 gross square feet (GSF) of shelled spaces within the new Montlake Tower and will renovate 137,000 GSF for both inpatient and outpatient services in the Pacific and Muilenburg Towers. Scope will include new operating rooms (ORs) on Level 2 and intensive care or medical surgery units on Levels 5, 6, and 7. Renovation work will consolidate and organize clinics in wings 7EE and 8SE and will provide the support space and infrastructure necessary to make each component fully operational. To maintain continuous hospital operations throughout construction, the project has been organized sequentially in multiple construction phases allowing for incremental occupancy milestones, which may be adjusted for patient and operational needs or infrastructure requirements. The project architect is NBBJ of Seattle, and the general contractor/construction manager (GC/CM) is Mortenson Construction, located in Kirkland.

UWMC Expansion Phase I, Montlake Tower, #204110

PROJECT STATUS SUMMARY Schedule Overview

Design is continuing while construction has started. We just completed the permit set for Design Package 07 and that package has been reviewed by Plant Engineers and UWMC Technical Staff. The Design Team will have another round of refinements on this package prior to its completion and bidding late in 2014. Schedule Variance The current completion schedule for Design Package 01 is forecast to be 2 ½ months later than the original schedule for Areas 3EE, 7NN, 7SE & 8SE. The revised schedule is due to unforeseen existing conditions, the actual productivity impacts of working in the occupied areas of the UWMC, and an overly optimistic original schedule that didn’t allow sufficient schedule latitude to accommodate either of these factors. The Design Package 04 (DP04) schedule for 7EE, 2SA, 5SA, 6SA & 7SA has been submitted to the UWMC for review and approval. The DP04 work started in August, 2014.and the current Draft Schedule anticipates that the work will be complete at the end of 2015. Final acceptance of the schedule for the next phase of the project (DP04) is anticipated in early October. Work Accomplished This Period Phased work was completed in 4SA, 7NN, 7SE & 8SE and turned over to the UWMC during September. The next phase of work in 4SA started early, due to availability of the space. Planning for the next phase of work in 7SE & 8SE continued. Work in the 2nd phase of 7NN continued, and work in the 3rd (final) phase is underway. Floor infill work in the Montlake Tower on 5SA, 6SA & 7SA was completed. Mechanical, electrical and

Montlake Triangle Project Project #203593

September 2014 Project Manager: Andy Casillas

Construction Manager: Andy Casillas

PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Montlake Triangle Project (MTP) is a multi-agency effort consisting of three subprojects centered on the intersection of Pacific Street and Montlake Boulevard. The project scope includes lowering NE Pacific Place and constructing a land bridge that will connect the Montlake Triangle and the lower Rainier Vista with a seamless pedestrian experience. Transit patrons will access the triangle via a combination of existing crosswalks and a new bridge across Montlake Boulevard. The MTP subprojects will be constructed sequentially and scheduled to minimize impact to adjacent work projects. These subprojects consist of the following elements: • Montlake Pedestrian Bridge--Subproject 1 (SP1) – This project will provide pedestrian

and bicycle connections between the future light rail station at Husky Stadium and the Montlake Triangle. Sound Transit is managing design and construction of this $11.4 million project.

• Rainier Vista Land Bridge--Subproject 2 (SP2) – This bridge will span Pacific Place and connect the Montlake Triangle to Rainier Vista. The UW is managing design and construction of this $20.8 million project.

• Rainier Vista Land Bridge Site Improvements--Subproject 3 (SP3) – This project will provide landscaping, hard surfacing, lighting, and other site improvements from Stevens Way through the Montlake Triangle. The UW is managing design and construction of this $4.5 million project.

43

Montlake Triangle Project, #203593

Funding for these projects will be provided by the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) ($22M), Sound Transit ($12M), and the University ($4M), with an additional $5 million in contingency reserve funded by WSDOT. The designer is KPFF Consulting Engineers of Seattle. The landscape architect is Gustafson Guthrie Nichol. The general contractor/construction manager (GC/CM) is a joint venture of Sellen Construction and Gary Merlino Construction, both located in Seattle. PROJECT STATUS SUMMARY Schedule Overview

Schedule Variance The project is 2 weeks behind schedule due to unforeseen site conditions related to the existing fire protection feed to the Triangle Garage. The issue is resolved, and the contractor is looking for opportunities to recover the schedule.

44

Montlake Triangle Project, #203593

Work Accomplished This Period The lower Vista work progressed with the spreading of topsoil along the sidewalk and the planting of trees and shrubs. The area between the lower plaza and the bridge will remain uncompleted until the land bridge is completed. The land bridge work has progressed with abutments backfilled and bridge decking and support work installed. Formwork for the end diaphragms and the rebar installation has begun as well. Work on the triangle involved geofabric and gravel being laid to enable installation of sidewalks along main body. Work on NE Pacific Street focused on getting ready for football season. Utility installation, bus shelter foundations and previous sidewalk we all installed as well. The mid-block pedestrian crossing work was also completed in time for the first football game and the entire Pacific Street will be open by months end. Perimeter site wall foundations were placed along Montlake Blvd and miscellaneous gabion installations along Pacific street stairs and Pacific Place roadway. Plans for Next 30 Days Landscaping with shrubs and trees will continue along lower half of Vista. Pedestrian bridge work will push to place diaphragms, bottom deck and fascia walls. Triangle work will complete plaza concrete and remaining utilities such as light pole bases and tree pits to allow stockpiling of topsoil. Football home games control the sidewalk schedule along Montlake with a rush to get this section complete prior to the next scheduled game. . PROJECT BUDGET AND COST Cost Overview Following are the approved subproject budgets:

Montlake Pedestrian Bridge—SP1 (by Sound Transit): $11.4 million Rainier Vista Land Bridge—SP2: $20.8 million Rainier Vista Land Bridge Site Improvements—SP3: $4.5 million The project budget includes two subproject components as outlined above. The combined SP2/3 budget is $25.3 million. With the numerous changes encountered the team reviewed project estimate to complete forecasting along with updated the Risk Register Log. Based on these updates, it appears the project will forecast a $1.4M deficit. Funding parties have been notified and have initiated process to request additional funding from WSDOT. The overall project funding plan includes a WSDOT construction reserve, which provides an additional level of funding for these unforeseen conditions or events causing construction change orders to exceed the SP2/3 project contingency.

NanoEngineering & Sciences Building (NESB) Project #204878

September 2014 Project Manager – Eric McArthur

PROJECT DESCRIPTION The NanES project will consist of a new, approximately 78,000 gross square foot, 6-story building adjacent and connected to the existing Molecular Engineering & Sciences Building (MolES) on the main University of Washington campus. The project will be to construct a warm shell building and complete the build-out of 13,000 assignable square feet (asf) to accommodate the currently impacted spaces. The first floor of 12,000 gross square feet will be constructed as a warm shell for anticipated future completion for academic general purpose use, and this warm shell work will be funded by Central Funds. To offset this loss of floor space, the currently designed basement level floor will expand to the north and add 9,000 of gross square feet of ground contact area. The balance of the shell space will be available to provide build-out space for future College of Engineering vibration and EMI sensitive programs, currently estimated at an additional 27,000 asf by the year 2021.

NanoEngineering and Sciences Building (NESB), #204878

SCHEDULE VARIANCE The Project Agreement approval took longer than anticipated, and this has delayed the Building Committee meetings planning the Ground, First and Second floors. CPO has reviewed the overall schedule and, at this time, it appears that with the Shell and Core in for Building Permit, the schedule can be maintained. WORK ACCOMPLISHED THIS PERIOD Work continued on completing the shell and core Construction Documents

The preconstruction services agreement was on hold until pending execution of the Project Agreement. A Scope and Fee have been submitted, negotiated, and are ready for approval now that the Project Agreement is executed. The site design was successfully presented for Schematic Design approval at the September 29th Joint Architectural Commission/University Landscape Advisory Committee meeting.

PLANS FOR NEXT 30 DAYS Space planning meetings will resume while the Permit package is reviewed by the city. Work will continue on the shell and core construction documents. The GC/CM preconstruction contract will be executed and that work will begin, including the selection process for the electrical and mechanical contractor/construction manager firms. CPO will work with Hoffman Construction to plan the logistics for project trailers, staging and laydown areas, and site access for this very constrained construction site. PROJECT BUDGET & COST Cost Overview The current budget and forecast cost is $53 million, of which $43 million is in hand.

NanoEngineering and Sciences Building (NESB), #204878

CHANGES IN SCOPE None anticipated at this time. BUYOUT STATUS Not applicable at this time. SAFETY STATISTICS Not applicable at this time. CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION Not applicable at this time. OPPORTUNITIES & CHALLENGES Currently, the project scope includes the build-out of only the square footage displaced by Sound Transit impacts. It will be a challenge to manage any additional build-out which might be funded later, and which could be on a different design and construction schedule, so as to minimize impact to overall cost. The site area is limited and will be affecting vehicular circulation around the site. Stevens Way will have the street edge adjusted to help traffic flow south, the circle at the terminus of Grant Lane will be removed, and access to the Central Plaza Parking Garage will be slightly modified. Coordinating these campus circulation revisions with the surrounding campus community will require extensive outreach and communication.

New Burke Museum Project #203007

September 2014 Project Manager: Curtis Bain

PROJECT DESCRIPTION The existing Burke Museum, constructed in 1962, is a two-story brick building with a basement totaling 68,916 GSF. This project will address the limitations and shortcomings of the existing building, which is no longer adequate to meet the programmatic vision, capacity for research collections, public outreach, and education missions of the Burke Museum. During the predesign phase, it was determined that, rather than renovating the existing building, it will be more cost effective to construct a new facility nearby. Replacing the existing building will significantly reduce complications and costs to the operation of the museum during construction, avoiding the need to move collections twice, limit access to collections, and close operations during construction. A new building will more easily accommodate the museum’s program and will enhance connections to the community and neighborhood. It will also be located and configured to better anticipate potential future development on the site and have much stronger appeal to potential donors. The new building will celebrate the museum’s goals to: a) foster understanding and inspire wonder about the Northwest and our place in the world; b) emphasize the power of object-based learning to inspire curiosity, generate new knowledge, and foster understanding of the role collections play in our shared natural and cultural heritage; and c) emphasize the connection between people and the environment in every aspect of the museum, from research, exhibits, and programming to the museum’s building, grounds, and business practices.

53

New Burke Museum, #203007 The project will be an architecturally noteworthy facility that reflects the museum's core institutional values of sustainability, excellence, respect, stewardship, creativity, and community engagement; makes the collections and research accessible and engaging; integrates a cross-disciplinary approach to achieving the museum's vision; and facilitates meaningful visitor engagement with exhibitions, on-site programs, public amenities, and outreach services. Accessibility will be integrated into the new facility to meet ADA requirements. The project will also address issues of long-term flexibility in the design of galleries and public spaces and will implement sustainable design practices to achieve a facility that functions efficiently and can be maintained with limited resources. A LEED Platinum certification is the aspirational goal. The new museum is planned to be 110,000 GSF. The proposed building site, directly west of the existing museum, is within a development site identified in the UW Campus Master Plan. The revised site plan will permit construction of a future building on the site of the current museum. The project architect is Olson Kundig Architects (OKA) and Gustafson Guthrie Nichol (GGN) Landscape Architects; both are located in Seattle. PROJECT STATUS SUMMARY Schedule Overview

It is anticipated that the installation of the new exhibits and the phased migration of the museum’s collection of over 15 million historical artifacts will take approximately one year. The goal is to minimize the impact of the relocation on public programs and access.

54

New Burke Museum, #203007 Schedule Variance The schematic design phase is taking longer than planned. The team is looking at shortening the design phase or phasing the construction to make up for the longer than anticipated schematic design phase. Work Accomplished This Period The project team met regularly, focusing on program refinement, architectural, landscape, parking and site planning issues. The design consultants continued to investigate options for exterior cladding, a rainwater cistern, LEED qualifications, loading dock, and safe site circulation concepts. A 90% Schematic Design package was completed on September 08, 2014 for estimating. Subsequently, design review meetings were conducted with Process Partners including Campus Engineering, EH&S, Information Technology, and Facility Services. The design team is scheduled to complete 100% Schematic Design on September 26, 2014. A request for qualifications for consultants to provide environmental consulting services was issued; the request was re-issued following receipt of only a single response. A pre-submittal conference with the City of Seattle’s Department of Planning and Development was held to discuss building code compliance issues and review the process in anticipation of permit submittals. The final geotechnical report is anticipated the week of September 29th. The project was presented to the UW Board of Regents and the use of the GC/CM contracting method and the authority to delegate award of the construction contract was approved. On September 29, the project was presented to a joint meeting of the UW Architectural Commission (UWAC) and University Landscape Architectural Committee. The schematic design was approved by the UWAC with effusive comments. Plans for Next 30 Days A consultant will be selected to perform project environmental review. The RFP for GC/CM firms will be published. The Architect’s cost estimate will be reconciled against an independent cost estimate commissioned directly by the University. If necessary, the design and scope will be adjusted to ensure the project proceeds per the approved budget. Additional Services for OKA regarding lighting design, acoustics, telecommunications , and A/V services will be negotiated. PROJECT BUDGET & COST Cost Overview Currently the project is funded for only the design phase. The design forecast cost is on budget.

55

New Burke Museum, #203007

CHANGES IN SCOPE None anticipated this period. BUYOUT STATUS, SAFETY STATISTICS, AND CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION Not applicable at this time. OPPORTUNITIES & CHALLENGES Combining substantial funding from grants and donors with state funds can add uncertainty to the project schedule and budget. The potential of the whole site will be considered in order to maximize this corner of the campus for its urbanity, visibility, and identity potentials. Evaluation of the substantial pedestrian traffic across the site, which currently moves through the existing parking areas, is also being studied. It will be a major challenge to plan for the displacement of staff and collections during the transition phase when they move from the existing facility into the new building. It will be challenging to achieve a LEED Platinum certification within the project budget. The project, at a minimum, will meet LEED Silver certification.

UW Police Department Facility Project #203612

September 2014 Project Manager: Ken Kubota

PROJECT DESCRIPTION This project will provide a new upgraded University of Washington Police Department (UWPD) facility in a more central location that will facilitate greater accessibility to the University community. The project site is just south of Gould Hall, occupying a portion of the W14 Parking Lot and the 3945 and 3937 buildings on 15th Avenue NE. Located in the growing and increasingly lively west campus and near a primary campus entrance, the site offers improved visibility and access to the police station. The approximately 29,000 square foot building is envisioned to be architecturally significant, with a program and features to support a modern and highly capable UWPD operation for decades to come. The conceptual design envisions a two-story building with a basement level. The program includes police offices, a dispatch and communications center, records storage, evidence room and lab, suspect processing, interview rooms, report taking rooms, juvenile waiting rooms, police lockers, fitness rooms, a community multipurpose meeting/training room, and fleet parking. The project sustainability goal is to achieve, at a minimum, a LEED silver certification. The architect is the Miller Hull Partnership of Seattle. The police facilities consultant is McClaren, Wilson & Lawrie of Phoenix, Arizona. The GC/CM is BNBuilders of Seattle.

CHANGES IN SCOPE None anticipated this period. BUYOUT STATUS, SAFETY STATISTICS, AND CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION Not applicable at this time. OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES The UW Police Department facility is one of the few buildings on campus that is open 24-hours a day, seven days a week. This project will make the UW Police Department more visible, as many students, faculty, and staff do not know its current location at the Bryants Building. The design team and the contractor are managing the project well to stay within the available budget. Just south of the UWPD site is the site for the separate Campus Utility Plant (CUP) project that will require close coordination. The CUP project will provide emergency power to the UWPD. Construction prices are increasing and keeping the project on budget will be challenging.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION UW Tacoma and the YMCA of Pierce and Kitsap Counties are collaborating to build a full-service Y on the UWT campus. The building size will be 70,300 gross square feet (GSF). Program elements will include a gymnasium, cardio and weight training facilities, indoor walking/jogging track, multipurpose exercise rooms, student government and club space, meeting rooms, a large dividable assembly space, and locker rooms. The facility will serve UWT students, faculty, and staff, as well as other Y members, and will contribute to the missions of both institutions. UWT will gain a campus facility that combines the functions of a student recreation center and a student union. The Y will expand the number of people it currently serves through healthy-living facilities and outreach programs. The building will be constructed and owned by the UW, leased to the Y, and operated and maintained by the Y. All UWT students will become members of the Y, and UWT faculty and staff who choose to join the Y will also be able to use the facility. Like all Y members, the students and participating faculty/staff will also have access to any of the nine Y facilities throughout Pierce and Kitsap counties. The selected design-build (D-B) team is comprised of Mortenson Construction, located in Kirkland, and McGranahan Architects, located in Tacoma.

UW Tacoma Urban Solutions Center Project #204701

September 2014 Project Manager: Jeannie Natta

PROJECT DESCRIPTION The former Tacoma Paper and Stationery Building is the last of the historic large warehouse buildings on the UW Tacoma campus to be renovated. The building features a 10,000 gross square foot daylight basement and three upper floors for a total of 40,000 gross square feet. Currently, the building is unoccupied other than by storage uses and by the Old Spaghetti Factory restaurant, which has been a mainstay in downtown Tacoma for decades. Consistent with its mission as an urban-serving university, the UW Tacoma seeks to renovate this building to further preserve the historic fabric of its downtown Tacoma environs, and to ultimately house programs in the building which bring together academic, commercial, non-profit, government, and student entities in one place to study, research, analyze, debate, and develop solutions for a variety of issues in the South Sound region. The project is conceived as being executed in two phases: an initial shell and core project to bring the building up to current code compliance and establish a ‘warm shell’ suitable for future interior build-out; and a second phase which would execute the interior build-out. Programming for potential uses, including laboratories, teaching space, collaborative space, and offices, will be concurrent with the shell and core design.

67

UW Tacoma Urban Solutions Center, #204701

Pre-design and design work has been funded by a $1.9M capital request in the 2013 Legislative session, and a construction funding request for the shell and core work, anticipated to be $18M, will be submitted in the coming Legislative session. Funding for the interior build-out, expected to be on the order of $20M, would be provided by a combination of fundraising, partnerships, and institutional sources. The architect is the Miller Hull Partnership, located in Seattle. The GC/CM selection process is in progress PROJECT STATUS SUMMARY Schedule Overview

Work Accomplished This Period Miller Hull completed a comprehensive predesign study report. At this time, UW Tacoma has directed the team to proceed with the understanding that the building will be unoccupied during construction. Final proposals for the GCCM Selection were submitted on August 27, 2014. Mortenson received the highest number of points in the selection process and was awarded the GCCM contract. A team meeting with Mortenson, Miller Hull and Capital Projects was held on September 10, 2014 to share the predesign report with Mortenson. Mortenson is developing a work plan for preconstruction services and Miller Hull is developing the design contract scope. The goal is to have both contracts completed by early October. The Capital Projects Office negotiated the Project Agreement with the client and has submitted the agreement for approval. Finally, Professional Service Industries tested the structural integrity of the wood beams and Sitts Hill completed the site survey. Plans for Next 30 Days A joint project team office for the Urban Solutions Center project and the Tioga McDonald Smith Building Renovations project is being established in the Tioga building at the UW Tacoma. Mortenson is the contractor for both projects. By sharing an existing space, both projects will benefit from efficiencies and cost savings, as well as a collaborative work environment for the teams. Design for the Urban Solutions Center project will start in October.

UW Tacoma Urban Solutions Center, #204701

OPPORTUNITIES & CHALLENGES The project offers the chance to complete the major renovation of UW Tacoma’s warehouse building stock and fill in a ‘missing tooth’ in the heart of the campus. The building has a number of infrastructure challenges to overcome, and there is little time to coordinate any scope ideas which could impact the Prairie Line Trail project which is already under construction. There is known contaminated soil within the footprint of the building and economically addressing that issue will be an additional challenge. If the building remains partially occupied during the core and shell renovation, several challenges and opportunities exist. The design team has analyzed and priced options for executing the project construction with the tenant in place. At this time the team is proceeding with the understanding the building will be unoccupied.

wǝɫǝbʔaltxʷ (Intellectual House) Project #202070

September 2014 Senior Project Manager: Troy Stahlecker

Construction Manager: Jeff Huebler

PROJECT DESCRIPTION This project will construct Phase 1 (Gathering Building) of the wǝɫǝbʔaltxʷ (Intellectual House) project. The name wǝɫǝbʔaltxʷ comes from the Lushootseed language (traditional language of the Puget Salish people) and is phonetically pronounced "wah shleb alt." The building vision is to be a contemporary interpretation of longhouse style traditions of the Salish people of the Pacific Northwest. Phase 1 will construct a multiservice learning and gathering space for Native American students, faculty, and staff, which will provide the opportunity for various cultures and communities to come together in a supportive and welcoming education environment to share their knowledge and their cultures with one another.

The Gathering Building is 8,340 GSF comprising a large gathering hall, conference room, office, teaching/warming kitchen, and other related support spaces. The outdoor spaces include gathering areas, cooking space, and educational gardens with native plantings that will be used in teaching indigenous science, art, and medicine.

A LEED Silver certification is the minimum goal for the project; the project team is striving for Gold.

The architect is Jones & Jones Architects and Landscape Architects, located in Seattle. The general contractor is Western Ventures Construction, located in Mountlake Terrace.

West Campus Utility Plant Project #204685

September 2014 Project Manager: Steve Harrison

PROJECT DESCRIPTION This project is envisioned to be a building of approximately 17,200 gross square feet (GSF) containing generators, chillers, cooling towers, and associated equipment. The building will be constructed above the existing campus utility tunnel, allowing direct access to the tunnel for distribution of electrical cabling and processed chilled water (PCW) piping. When fully built out, the plant will have capacity to produce 12 megawatts (MW) of emergency power and 6,000 tons of PCW. Phase 1 will construct the Central Utility Plant (CUP) building, install equipment to produce approximately half of the full capacity (6 MW and 3,000 tons), provide space and infrastructure for the future full build-out, and run distribution systems sized for the full capacity to the south campus. Emergency power and PCW will be distributed to the Animal Research and Care Facility (ARCF), at which point the ARCF project will pick up those services for connection and distribution within the facility. Services will also be provided to the new UW Police Department (UWPD) facility to be constructed immediately to the north of the CUP. The CUP is envisioned to be an architecturally significant building, given its prominent location on the west campus. Careful attention will be given to ensuring that the design fits contextually with the surrounding community and is representative of its importance as a gateway building at the southwest approach to the campus. The design will incorporate a demonstration display element that will enable access by students and the public to gain an understanding of the University’s commitment to the environment and energy conservation. The Board of Regents authorized use of the design-build (D-B) contracting method for this project. PROJECT STATUS SUMMARY Schedule Overview Schedule Variance None this period

West Campus Utility Plant, #204685

Work Accomplished This Period Project kickoff meeting was conducted. Several topic-specific focus-group meetings were conducted. Information from these meetings, other forms communications, and research was compiled into a list and description of owner project requirements (OPR). This discovery and compilation is ongoing. Limited and preliminary site and equipment layout schemes were developed. Coordination with dependent and neighboring projects was conducted. The hydraulic modeling effort was brought near conclusion and a draft scope of distribution system improvements was created. Overall permitting strategy was further developed and the application to the Seattle Department of Transportation (for input regarding road improvement requirements) was submitted. Plans for Next 30 Days Continue the programming phase of the project with the focus shifting from ‘discovery’ to coordination, prioritization and more detailed development of basis-of-design documents including development of preliminary design schemes. Further develop permitting strategy, baseline information, and related work. PROJECT BUDGET & COST Cost Overview The approved budget is $30.5 million, and the cost forecast is currently on budget. The University will provide $8 million of the project funding, and the balance will be funded through the internal lending program.

West Campus Utility Plant, #204685

CHANGES IN SCOPE None anticipated this period. BUYOUT STATUS, SAFETY STATISTICS, AND CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION Not applicable at this time. OPPORTUNITIES & CHALLENGES Meeting the schedule goals will be the primary challenge for this project. Creating the tools and internal agreements for the progressive D-B method will require extensive coordination and communication. A closely related challenge will be defining and assuring the performance of the facility, which is a robust industrial grade utilities plant with architectural qualities commensurate with its campus gateway location. This must be accomplished within a fast-track delivery method. Permitting, including State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), master use permit, construction, and electrical/energy code compliance, will have to be tightly coordinated with the D-B sequence of major tasks.
