Student Health Center Addition


Published March 2002

An 8,000-sf, freestanding building, located adjacent to the existing Health Center. It accommodates facilities for the Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) and Physical Therapy and Sports Rehabilitation (PTSR) departments. Both departments are accessed from a common lobby.

The 3,025-sf CAPS department includes nine offices for private counseling, two of which are equipped with "one way" windows for observation, a group therapy room, waiting room, and support space. The PTSR suite contains a large therapy and treatment room with multiple stations equipped with a variety of training devices. It also houses a hydrotherapy room and a private treatment room all in a 2,530 sf area

The freestanding, one-story building was constructed in 14 months, utilizing non-state bond funds. Completion of this facility allows space available in the existing building for creation of a new Health Education and Wellness Center.

About the Reported Cost Figures
The cost figures reported are supplied by the firms that submitted these projects for publication, which in most cases are the designers or builders. Whereas these sources are intimately familiar with their projects, they may not be fully aware of the owners' finally-realized and recorded costs. In some cases, costs are truly and completely accounted for, and in others they represent a near approximation of the final costs. Costs have not been adjusted for year of construction, nor has any attempt been made to make regional cost adjustments.

Further, costs are not comparable on any kind of detailed standard costing model. Hence, it is possible for the cost of one building to include a steam boiler, while the cost of a comparable building might not include the boiler, if steam is being supplied from an already existing campus grid. Or, in another case, a building might include excess boiler capacity to supply steam to another building. Some submittals include fees or unusual site improvements as part of the construction costs, which others do not.
