Boston – Tishman Construction Corporation of MA (TCCMA) recently completed exterior renovations to Northeastern University’s Hurtig Hall, home to the chemistry and chemical biology departments. The building contains research labs, teaching labs, and classroom space. TCCMA replaced the failing existing asphalt roof with a new TPO roofing system and completed masonry repairs to the brick façade. In addition to the repairs, limestone elements were added to the façade above the fourth floor windows and at the building corners.
Working around a large number of HVAC equipment located on the roof and serving all of the lab proved to be quite a challenge. The roof replacement was competed in a manner that maintained a weather tight building at all times and allowed the building to remain occupied and the labs to be used during completion of the work.
An efficient program was developed to abate hazardous material in conjunction with the masonry repairs to minimize impacts to the project schedule.
The project was completed on schedule.
TCCMA is providing preconstruction consulting to Northeastern University for future exterior renovation projects planned for summer 2012.
