LSTR.jpg (16901 bytes)The University of Colorado at Boulder has contracted a 45,000 GSF addition to the Laboratory for Space Technology Research (LSTR), which will alleviate space restrictions for each of the four divisions of the lab: Engineering, Mission Operations and Information Systems, Science, and Administration. The addition will house expanded engineering and science facilities associated with recently received NASA space research grants.

The laboratories will include cleanrooms for assembling new satellite components, testing and quality control labs and clean, high-bay assembly areas and compose approximately one-third of the building space.  The remaining two-thirds of the building will be used for offices and computer labs.

According to the university, as part of its commitment to high quality, energy- and water-efficient buildings, it plans to “exceed ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air-conditioning Engineers) Standard 90 for this facility upgrade.”
