Definitions MnSCU FACILITIES DESIGN STANDARDS 07/31/17 i Preface MINNESOTA STATE Colleges and Universities (hereinafter MINNESOTA STATE ) is the fifth-largest system of higher education in the United states . It is comprised of 37 two-year and four-year STATE colleges and universities with 54 campuses located in 47 MINNESOTA communities. The System serves approximately 396,000 students and produces approximately 41,000 degrees, certificates and diplomas each year. FACILITIES range from those at the older, venerable STATE universities to the most modern at many sites. Each institution strives to maintain their collegiate ambiance so that students know they are attending an institution of higher learning. Each institution has a unique identity that expresses its history, mission and personality.

7 Whenever facility changes are made at a specific institution, that uniqueness should capture major landscape, historic and geographic features. Collectively we are short term stewards of our STATE s long-term higher education assets. Buildings and campus infrastructure shall be designed and built to last for many years. Decisions concerning these assets must be grounded in solid, long-range planning and execution to reach 50 years or more into the future. MnSCU FACILITIES DESIGN STANDARDS 6 7/31/2017 ii Introduction The FACILITIES DESIGN STANDARDS are intended to be used by architects, consultants, and campus FACILITIES personnel during the planning, DESIGN , and construction of new and remodeled buildings, and for maintenance of campus FACILITIES and infrastructure throughout the MINNESOTA STATE colleges and universities system. The purpose of these FACILITIES DESIGN STANDARDS is to communicate the basic minimum requirements to ensure that a project is complete, durable, easily maintained, safe, and compatible with existing and planned FACILITIES .

8 The information included contains procedures to be followed, materials to be used, or DESIGN STANDARDS which are deemed appropriate to assure the quality desired by MINNESOTA STATE now and into the future. FACILITIES personnel within the MINNESOTA STATE , as well as outside architects, consultants, and contractors should become familiar with these DESIGN STANDARDS . The FACILITIES DESIGN STANDARDS are divided into five sections. Section I. The Mission Statement and the DESIGN Principles. Section II. General DESIGN Requirements. Section III. Summarizes the DESIGN Phase Requirements where procedures and DESIGN phase submittal requirements are described for each phase from Schematic DESIGN to Construction Administration. Section IV establishes DESIGN STANDARDS and criteria for all work in the 49 divisions of the Construction Specifications Institute (CSI) MasterFormat 2014, where applicable to a specific project.

9 Section V contains sample specifications for some of the key divisions, which may applicable to a specific project. Not all divisions are included in this section. Section VI Appendices, includes approved manufacturer s product lists, definitions and a DESIGN STANDARDS Variance Request Form. In the future we hope to add examples of drawing details for building envelope DESIGN . The DESIGN team shall be responsible for producing designs that comply with the DESIGN STANDARDS in addition to all applicable codes, ordinances, statutes, regulations, and laws. If there is a conflict with any requirement in the DESIGN STANDARDS , the applicable building codes shall take precedence. The DESIGN STANDARDS are not intended to be used as the specifications for a particular project, but shall form the basis for creating the specifications. The use and inclusion of the DESIGN STANDARDS , specifications, or example drawing details as part of the Contract Documents does not relieve the DESIGN team of their responsibilities or legal liability for any Contract Documents they create.

10 All DESIGN and construction shall comply with the FACILITIES DESIGN STANDARDS herein. There may be instances where the DESIGN STANDARDS may not be appropriate for a particular situation or project. In this situation, a DESIGN variance is required. Any DESIGN variance from the DESIGN STANDARDS must be submitted for review as a formal written request from the DESIGN team to the system office Program Manager. DESIGN Standard variance request forms are available in the appendix or at , under 2. Project Phases, Schematic DESIGN , , DESIGN STANDARDS Variance Request Form. DESIGN variance requests should be made as early as possible, but no later than during the DESIGN Development phase. To request a DESIGN variance from the DESIGN STANDARDS , the following information should be included: MnSCU FACILITIES DESIGN STANDARDS 7 7/31/2017 Date, Project, College/University, Name of Requestor and contact information. Applicable DESIGN STANDARDS reference(s).
