Floor Tile Removal Will Bar Access to Some MSB Rooms
Workers will be removing floor tile on the east side of the Medical Sciences Building (MSB) in the 300 series hallways on Levels 4, 5, 6 and 7 this weekend to prepare for installation of temporary construction barricades for Phase IV of the MSB Rehabilitation project.
Work is being performed on a weekend to limit disruption of normal activities. It will start at 8 p.m. Friday, June 14, and will be complete by 5 p.m. Sunday, June 16. Work will be performed inside plastic containment with an exhaust system to keep dust to a minimum. There will be localized noise but no hammer drilling.
During the weekend, there will not be any access to the following rooms:
Level 4: 4352, 4356, 4357, 4358 (offices A to D).
Level 5: 5353, 5355, 5356, 5357.
Level 6: 6356, 6359, 6360.
Level 7: 7350, 7354, 7357, 7358.
Phase IV of the MSB Rehabilitation Project involves the south half of the MSB (Levels E-7 in the southeast quadrant and Levels 3-7 in the southwest quadrant).
