Indiana University Research III

Indianapolis, Indiana

The seven-story, 254,000 square foot, $83.3 million facility houses a 213-seat auditorium, a symposium center and more than 119 laboratories. The new structure is the final component of a three-building, 500,000 square foot interconnected Research complex.

ERMCO's work on the project included installing large feeder conduits and the electrical components, telecom install, and installation of three massive 13.8 KV Substations.

One element that helped keep this job on track was the extensive use of ERMCO's Construction Services Group, with Kenny Edwards not only serving as the Director of Construction Service but also the Project Manager of the job. The purpose of this group is to assist the Project Managers with project start-up, execution and close-out of jobs. Construction Services has a pool of labor that is highly skilled in several support functions such as CAD, re-engineering, identification of pre-fab opportunities, coordination with other trades, scheduling and claims preparation. The use of Construction Services also brings procedural consistency to each project.

Indiana University
Neal Marshall Education Center

Bloomington, IN

ERMCO, Inc. provided new lighting, distribution equipment, emergency generator system, theatrical dimming and lighting control systems, and fire alarm systems. This project consisted of four stories of classrooms, scene shops, dance studios, computer design, stage lighting design studios, sound studios and two stage production areas.

The main theater seated 150 guests, had a 70ft stage tower with a full compliment of scenery, curtains and lighting rigging. There were several theatrical lighting catwalks located above the audience along with a fiber optic lighting system design to represent a star constellation. The secondary theater is known as an experimental theater with the audience seated above and around the stage floor in three different levels.

The building had very high end architectural finishes which made coordination particularly important and required close attention to detail. It was truly a project ERMCO, Inc. was proud to be a part of.
