Creation of a new building for Data Storage

Project Highlights

14th December 2001
5th March 2001
5th September 2000
  • New building number (613) allocated for the B186 extension.
August 2000
  • Funding arrangements for the B186 extension agreed at CCCR meeting. Detailed planning starts with ST division. Construction work foreseen to start in January 2001 with complete building delivered in July 2001.
  • IT to decide on  fire detection/extinction arrangements and also precise power needs (after ST provide costs for different levels of supply).
March/April 2000
  • EP abandon idea of external goods lift and plans for a single storey, silos only extension to B186 are refined. Costs estimated at 440KCHF for the building and 350KCHF for equipment (false floor, electrical supply and air-conditioning).
  • B186 extension plan accepted by Site Committee and approved by Jürgen May.
  • Go ahead for construction awaits clarification of funding arrangements.
January/February 2000
  • Consequences of mixing goods lift, silo space and offices in B186 extension become evident. Space is tight for the goods lift and silos and building costs escalate, partly driven by fire protection requirements, even with offices on ground floor.
  • Extension above B600 proposed by EP but this has drawbacks.
1999
  • EP request IT to liberate "tape archive" space in B186 for silicon factory. IT request replacement space to house silos.
  • As a goods lift has been requested for B186, suggestion is made to extend this to provide space for silos. Initial plan for single storey building provides insufficient space. Once a two storey building is required, a further extension to the height of B186 is favoured for aesthetic reasons and offices placed on 3rd floor.
