The 19 laboratories incorporate premium grade casework with epoxy countertops. Complex plumbing and HVAC systems are used to support the wide range of scientific study incorporated in the building. Additional program elements include six theater style lecture halls, offices, preparation rooms, meeting rooms and conference rooms. Exterior elements of this steel-framed structure include metal siding, brick and EIFS finishes.
