The SLAC Science and User Support building is a LEED Gold Certified, four-story building, which includes a 350-seat auditorium, green roof and patio. This project represents the face of the SLAC campus and houses many of the researchers and administrators who are involved in cutting-edge Department of Energy (DOE)-funded research. The project team overcame a number of technical challenges, including DOE requirements for both security and electronics for the building and a horizontal fire shutter solution for smoke control that saved the project $250,000. This team used quarterly Executive and Core Team partnering to deliver an outstanding project and finish on time, within budget, with no lost time injuries, and without claims. This project received a 2016 Diamond Level IPI Partnered Project of the Year.
