Center for Human Genetics

Engineered Designs, Inc. provided engineering design and construction administration services for a new laboratory research facility for Clemson University at the Greenwood Genetics Center in Greenwood, SC.

Clemson University is currently working in partnership with the Greenwood Genetics Center on education and research activities associated with human diagnostics and central nervous system research in cognitive development, autism, birth defects and epigenetics. The current educational component of the Center is a doctoral program in human genetics. This building will serve as a research and education center to expand the existing doctoral program to include a nationally competitive research and development team and enhance the existing research capabilities of the J.C. Self Research Institute of Human Genetics. The project allows for expansion of the existing research capabilities that the university has in Greenwood and will attract research and development companies engaged in human genetics research.

The 17,000 square foot Clemson University Center for Human Genetics sits on approximately 2.4 acres of the 16.7 acre tract owned by Clemson, and is sited to allow for future campus buildings. The building accommodates eight (8) each 800 SF BSL-2 labs, bottle wash, autoclave, offices, breakroom, conference/seminar rooms, and lobby/public spaces. The building was designed to fulfill requirements for LEED Silver Certification.

Amphora Discovery Corporation - Durham, NC

Amphora Discovery Corporation required a state-of-the-art laboratory facility and renovated a 25,000 square foot building in Durham County near Research Triangle Park. This project was intensive due to the fast track nature of the design. The design was phased in order to expedite the occupancy date for the tenant, with certain areas of the labs and offices being completed while other areas were still in the design phase. EDi facilitated the pre-purchased of several long-lead items due to the short construction schedule of the project, in an effort to expedite the delivery dates. An independent company was retained to trace the under-slab sewer piping to verify invert elevations, condition of pipe, and exact routing locations prior to initiating the plumbing design. EDi provided MEP & FP engineering systems design. Some of the systems incorporated - a generator, UPS system, new electrical service, new compressed air, DI water, and vacuum. The facility included a mission-critical computer room with independent and redundant cooling systems and emergency back-up power.

Duke University Medical Center - Durham, NC
