Regents' Great Hall sprinkler redo to start early June UAF Design and Construction will begin work on the sprinkler system and complete other upgrades in the Regents' Great Hall about June 13. The project is delayed from the anticipated June 1 start as UAF is still negotiating costs with the contractor. The delay will not alter the Nov. 1 completion date. The mandatory project, necessary to meet building codes, will also include abatement of asbestos in the ceilings and the demolition of adjacent wall finishes. A new suspended ceiling will allow access for equipment maintenance. The finishes and lighting in the space will be upgraded and refurbished to create an attractive space for our campus community and visitors. Depending on funding and the schedule, there are plans to add an elevator to give people with disabilities access to the Rasmuson Library and renovate the restrooms in the corridor southeast of the Great Hall. The restrooms in the corridor leading from the Great Hall to the library are also scheduled to be renovated this summer.
