BCER has worked on some of the most complex laboratory projects in Colorado. From bioscience and clinical labs on the Fitzsimons Medical Campus to facilities in Fort Collins that focus on research in invasive species, BCER continues to excel in laboratory design.
Featured Laboratory/High Tech Projects
United Launch Alliance
As part of a consolidation of personnel and resources, United Launch Alliance (ULA) relocated all Denver operations into four leased office buildings located along the I-25 corridor in southeast Denver. All four developer-owned buildings were previously occupied and constitute more than 450,000 sf of usable space allocated to the relocation of ULA. Programmed space includes General office space, upgraded executive space, a data center (10,000 sf), labs (15,000 sf)– computer room environments and raised floor offices, SCIF & CMIF (10,000 sf), conference center, cafeteria (existing to be re-commissioned), DOSC (Network Operations Center/Command Control Center- 16,000 sf) and building lobby upgrades. BCER provided Construction Administration, Electrical Engineering, Life Safety, Mechanical Engineering, and Plumbing Engineering services for the relocation.

AHEC – Science Building
BCER developed the Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Design Narrative and provided the Construction Documents and Construction Administration for the renovation and expansion of the Main Science Building on the Auraria Higher Education Center campus located in Denver, Colorado. The project consisted of a complete renovation of the existing 152,000 square foot Science Building plus the addition of approximately 198,000 square feet of new classroom, laboratory and office space. The new facility will provide laboratory and classroom space for the Chemistry, Biology, and Physics departments for University of Colorado at Denver, Community College of Denver and Metropolitan State College all located on the Auraria Higher Education Center campus. The mechanical and electrical design included incorporating the New Construction Version 2.2 LEED Application Guide for Laboratories.

DMNS – Education Collections Facility
The 126,000-sf, five-level expansion project to the existing Denver Museum of Nature and Science (DMNS) is comprised of several museum initiatives: a below-grade plinth for Museum Collections; a ground level Collections Preparatory component; second-floor Discovery Zone; third-level temporary exhibit space; and the Studios. In a continuation of a long relationship with the expanding Denver Museum of Nature and Science, BCER provided Mechanical and Plumbing Engineering services for the Education Collections Facility Expansion. BCER also provided Mechanical and Electrical Engineering services for the addition of a new loading dock to accommodate the general loading requirements for the facility. BCER has been involved with the evaluation and upgrading of the existing atrium as well as any modifications and additions to the atrium for the past 12 years. Services provided included code consulting, atrium system design, fire modeling, and atrium modeling/design, Mechanical/Electrical design and engineering, fire protection and fire alarm design, and commissioning for atriums.
