Fire Sprinkler Installation — Phase 3

PURPOSE

A new sprinkler system will be installed in the Julian A. McPhee University Union starting winter 2022. As a student hub on campus, the University Union serves hundreds of students every day; and with responsibility for the safety of those students—and all campus community members—the University Union must undergo a comprehensive upgrade and installment of its sprinkler system. The renewal of the facility’s fire sprinkler system will ensure the safety of all students, staff, and campus community members that utilize the University Union. 

AMENITIES

A modernized, robust fire sprinkler system that will fortify the University Union’s safety features and assure its patrons of their well-being. 

IMPACTS

During this phase of the project, the second floor of the University Union will see considerable impacts and closures throughout areas of the facility. Wayfinding signage will be available at all entrances and exits. Though conference rooms and offices will be closed and blocked off, the restrooms and elevator on the second floor of the University Union will remain accessible via a construction tunnel.
