It is left to the discretion of the user of the Guide to include the design feature.
“Must” is used to reflect a Stanford requirement, although not required by a regulation.Ĭriterion is advisory in nature, based on good engineering and safety practices.
The user of the Guide is required to include the design feature.Ĭriterion is based on well-established consensus standards/guidelines. Good practices stem from industry standards and/or the judgement/knowledge of Standard University’s EH&S professionals.ĭesign criteria are designated in the following ways: Shall:Ĭriterion is mandated by applicable regulation(s). References include regulations (e.g., Cal/OSHA and Fire Code), concensus standards (e.g., ANSI/ASHRAE), and good practices. Comments are included under the specific design criterion to give the user the rational behind the design feature. Within the sections, specific design criteria are provided. The Guide is formatted to address laboratory design issues pertinent to General Laboratories (e.g., chemical laboratories) in Section 1, with additional requirements for Radioactive Materials Laboratories and Biosafety Level 2 Laboratories presented in Sections 2 and 3 respectively. The Guide applies to construction projects for all Stanford University facilities, including leased properties. The Guide is a resource document for use by faculty, staff, and design professionals for use during the planning and early design phases of a project. EH&S believes that the Guide, in conjunction with EH&S’s plan review and consultation, improves design efficiency and minimizes changes. Since these requirements can impact the design of a project, Environmental Health and Safety (EH&S) prepared this EH&S Laboratory Design Guide to aid the campus community with planning and design issues. The resulting construction projects often have significant health and safety requirements due to regulatory oversight. 
Reason 9.5 manual upgrade#
Stanford University has a continuing need to modernize and upgrade its facilities. In all cases, EH&S should be consulted on questions regarding health, safety, and the environment. It is important to note that use practices must be considered during the design process, as they can directly influence how the laboratory will be designed. The Stanford Laboratory Standard & Design Guide is not “all inclusive.” It does not cover all regulatory issues nor does it cover all design situations. This Guide is to be used in conjunction with Stanford’s Facilities Design Guidelines and applies to construction projects for all Stanford University facilities, including leased properties. The Stanford Laboratory Standard & Design Guide is a resource document for use by faculty, staff, and design professionals during the planning and early design phases of a project.
