Summary
DESIGN-BUILD. On the ground/entry floor of terminal 1, the authority wishes to expand the existing ticketing lobby area to maximize ticketing service, within reasonable feasibility and within the allowable space. The area of work includes approx. 1,000 sf of additional queuing space, and approx. 600 sf for ticketing. An existing walk-in cooler will be removed, and a new walk-in cooler will be installed in a new location. The scope of work related to the walk-in cooler will first be confirmed with the expectations of the concessions stakeholder(s). Additionally, the existing loading dock will be modified and relocated, as its existing location will be incorporated into interior square footage. New finishes proposed for the interior space will be consistent with others found throughout the terminal 1 ticketing areas. Building systems will be modified and/or extended to include the new square footage. On the exterior, new building enclosure (exterior walls, footings, slab, and roof structure) will be provided for the expanded interior square footage. The existing loading dock will be shifted towards the southwest (towards the existing driveway servicing the loading dock). New exterior walkways will tie into an existing ramp. At least one new exit door from the ticketing area will be added; another pair of exit doors connected to an existing elevator lobby and serving as a point of entry for deliveries will be relocated. The project will also involve renovating a portion of the existing terminal 1 hold room area to be converted into men’s and women’s restrooms, as well as a closet for custodial staff and storage. The female restroom will have six water closets while the male restroom will have three water closets and three urinals; each restroom will receive three (3) sinks. At this time a pair of drinking fountains with a bottle filler will be added. The remaining space will remain as a passenger hold room, and consideration will be given to modification and relocation of existing furniture and features, like ceilings and millwork. In addition, new furniture and features will be added to complement the existing finishes with the adjacent spaces. Material finishes will be consistent with other terminal 1 restrooms at rdu, though all finish and fixture selections proposed for the restrooms will be reviewed with the authority during the design process. Existing building systems will be modified to support the new restrooms and modified hold rooms.
