Creating an Underground Research Facility to Explore the Universe 150 150 ieeeeduweek

The presentation will review the research requirements and describe how these were translated into the design scope for the facility to be located 6,800 feet below ground level.  We will review the construction challenges and the strategies to keep this specialized facility on budget in a challenging underground construction environment.  Designing for commissioning and operation will be discussed as well as the commissioning requirements.

The usual cost is $70 for non-members of ASHRAE but IEEE members will get the ASHRAE member rate of $60.
