Construction Progress - Part XXIII

We are getting closer and closer to the completion of the new MSU Surplus Store and Recycling Center. We are expecting to move to the new building in two months from now. Work is still continuing both inside and outside as sidewalks and parking lots are being paved.The ceilings are installed and electrical wires are being run.

The most exciting new feature is a large block S located by the MSU Surplus Store main entrance. It will be visible from Green Way (our new road) to make it easy to locate our main entrance.

Inside most of the large MSU Recycling equipment is installed, including the sort line and baler . The rain water retention bins that store gray water for use in the building are installed, including much of the pipes to collect and move this water.

Remember to keep checking back for more updates! Also don't forget that we have a compilation of all of the constructions photos available. We would also like to thank Irish Construction Company who has been very gracious in allowing us access and keeping us up to date with the progress of construction.

Construction Progress - Part XXII

It has been a while since we've had an update on the new facility. Today we have a very large update of photos, including some major new additions. Starting on the exterior of the building, the good weather has allowed the start on many of the sidewalks around the building including the MSU Surplus Store Outside Covered Sales Area. Many of the roadways and parking areas are being graded and leveled throughout the job site. A major new addition is the truck scale located on the southwest corner of the facility, where MSU Surplus Store and MSU Recycling trucks will be able to weigh materials that are being processed through the facility. On the north side of the site we also have the start of the MSU Recycling drop off area, which will provide 24 hour access to recycling containers for MSU students, faculty and staff.

The largest new feature on the inside of the facility is the large conveyor, sorting line and baler in the MSU Recycling processing area. This equipment assists in moving items into sorting containers and then moves the product to the compactor for preparation for shipment to off site recycling facilities. Many of the finish items such as doors, electrical and networking outlets have been installed as the buildings completion date approaches.

We would also like to thank Irish Construction Company who has been very gracious in allowing us access and keeping us up to date with the progress of construction.

Map to our New Building and Artist Renderings

We have an early version of the new MSU Campus Map that includes our new facility and roads that we will be close by. We are currently located on the left side of the map and will be moving to our new location just off of Farm Lane on the right side of the map. There will be two new roads that will be bordering our building; Green Way on the north side running East/West and then Recycling Road that will provide access from Service Road. You can also see where the MSU Recycling drop off will be located. It will allow for easy drive through access to recycling containers 24 hours a day.

We also have added some artist rendering of the completed MSU Surplus Store and Recycling Center. We have an aerial drawing and a few ground level drawings of the new building. In addition we have artist rendering of the MSU Recycling Center public drop-off for MSU employees and students and of the MSU Recycling processing floor and material flow.

Solar Panels

Last time we had ground photos of the new MSU Surplus Store and Recycling Center's solar panels from the roof, now we have some closer photos taken from the roof which show the panels in much greater detail. This system will have a real time display in the lobby to show electricity generated. Current estimates are that over 7.5% of the buildings energy will be provided from this renewable energy source.

Also be sure to check out the list of other LEED certification items for the new building.
