Construction of the Integrated Engineering Research Center continues. Plus, an updated rendering of IERC.
Integrated Engineering Research Center
On Monday, April 12, several members of the IERC project team took part in an outdoor event with the IERC general contractor, Mortenson, to mark a significant milestone: completion of the steel structure for the building.
From Civil + Structure Engineer, March 1, 2021: Fermilab’s new Integrated Engineering Research Center is a 85,000-square-foot, two-story structure that will be a combination of laboratories, offices, and collaborative spaces to support ongoing particle physics research, including the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment.
In early February 2021, the rough outline of the future Integrated Engineering Research Center is visible in the snow from the third floor of Wilson Hall.
From ENR, Jan. 18, 2021: The upcoming two-story Integrated Engineering Research Center will provide Fermilab staff and users with highly modular, flexible working environment. In its plan, the architecture team sought to maximize flexibility for wherever science may take particle physics over the next 50 years.
From Building, Design and Construction, Sept. 14, 2020: This fall, construction is scheduled to begin on the Integrated Engineering Research Center, an 85,000-square-foot infrastructure project at Fermilab. Lots of natural light and hybrid labs will distinguish the new center.
On July 22, the Department of Energy’s Under Secretary for Science joined partners and Fermilab leadership for the groundbreaking of the PIP-II cryoplant building and the site dedication for the Integrated Engineering Research Center.
On July 22, Fermilab celebrated the site dedication for the Integrated Engineering Research Center and the groundbreaking for the PIP-II cryoplant building. DOE Under Secretary Dabbar, Fermilab Director Nigel Lockyer and project leaders gave remarks on the occasion of these two milestones. Their remarks are now available for viewing online.
