Renovation of an educational facility in West Kingston, Rhode Island. Conceptual plans call for the renovation of a educational facility.

This project involves the second phase of the installation of fire-suppressing sprinkler systems, the upgrade or replacement of existing fire alarm systems, and recommended life safety improvements in the University of Rhode Islands academic, administrative, and general business buildings in accordance with changes in the Rhode Island State Fire Code. The Universitys extensive physical plant was constructed between 1890 to the present, with a substantial number of buildings constructed prior to the year when revisions to the State of Rhode Island Fire Code required building sprinkler systems in new construction and major renovation projects. This project encompasses existing academic, assembly, and other general business occupancies. This project scope covers buildings beyond those that have had fire safety improvements performed in accordance with the new code in the last several years, or those buildings that have renovations underway or starting during this fiscal year This project is included in the University of Rhode Island's FY 2025-2028 Capital Improvement Program (CIP).
