The LS Skaggs Applied Science Building, part of the Crocker Sciences Complex, is the new cornerstone of the University of Utah’s educational and research mission. It embodies a commitment to excellence, innovation and a bright future for the University of Utah’s academic and research pursuits. Student success is supported by a high-quality classroom experience, training in modern scientific and technological methods and a signature research experience for each major in the program. With a focus on accommodating the instructional needs of over 5,600 undergraduate and graduate students in STEM courses, the facility combines a thoughtful 40,000+ SF renovation of the historic Stewart Building with a contemporary 100,000+ SF addition.
An opportunity for Advanced Composites to expand its aerospace composite structures manufacturing capabilities, the space provides seventy-foot shop bays featuring twenty-five foot height for future bridge cranes. Daylight fills the space from skylights and translucent polycarbonate clerestory windows while white interior insulation facing reflects the lighting for a bright interior shop.
