Project #4

Future Space Programming for Campus growth
Major Canadian Research University


My role included half of a 15 year capital investment plan that was used to evaluate current state of all buildings on Campus. The factors accounted for in the digital model included: facility condition, suitability based on current use and space scoring, deffered maintainance costs, utilization, and future demand.

I constructed the digital model in Excel and in Tableau using the clients space databases and scoring systems that were tailor made for the University. The outputs from the model informed where and when new buildings will be constructed, what programs and space profiles will be included, and what the budget will be.
