The new 3-story building houses the Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering for Missouri University of Science & Technology. It features research labs, multi-function classrooms, 16 faculty offices, lecture halls, and highly specialized labs and high bay spaces. The facility also includes areas for nuclear reactor and biofuel research.
Superior Insealators provided a BASF Walltite Spray Polyurethane Foam Insulation and Air Barrier System that was installed to exterior walls prior to installation of brick and metal panel facades. This highly energy efficient system ensures the building maintains the proper temperatures and humidity levels that are critical to its educational purpose.
The installation of this system was verified by multiple third-party groups who performed Commissioning on the entire building upon completion. This project was also monitored and inspected utilizing the Quality Assurance Program by the Air Barrier Association of America (ABAA).
