According to Acella Construction Corp., the firm recently completed its 7th laboratory renovation at Northeastern University in the last 12 months.
"The Nanoscale Characterization Lab (Engineering) and Heterogeneous Materials & Muiltiscale Mechanics Lab (Engineering) Lab in Forsyth Hall are two of the most complex and recently completed projects located at Northeastern University's Main Campus in Boston," said Saul Schrader, project manager at Acella Construction. "These renovations consisted of completely demolishing two existing laboratory spaces on the second floor and refinishing the spaces with an extensive upgrade to the buildings mechanical system to support the new laboratory equipment."
"This required careful coordination of work in other occupied areas of the building that was completed around busy class schedules, all while trying to maintain the original construction schedule."
Other recently completed Laboratory Renovation projects at Northeastern University include the Soils & Concrete Lab in the basement of the Snell Engineering Building, the Protein Dynamics (Biology Chemistry) Lab on the 4th floor of Mugar Hall, the Electrochemistry Lab in the basement of Mugar Hall, the Protein Science Lab (Chemistry) and the Fuel Cell Research Lab on the 4th Floor of Hurtig Hall.
"These are just some of many projects we have worked on for Northeastern University," said Schrader. "We have built a lasting relationship with the University and look forward to continue helping them provide state-of-the art facilities for their students."
