2 PROJECT INFORMATION PROJECT CATEGORY TYPE OF PROJECT COMPLETION DATE TYPE OF CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS USED COST BUILDING AREA UNBUILT PUBLIC LIBRARY LATE 2017 TYPE II-B CONCRETE MASONRY WEATHERING STEEL GLASS GABION WALLS $6.4 MILLION 13,000 SF Mesquite Library, a branch within the Las Vegas-Clark County Library District, is located in Mesquite, Nevada. The project was sparked by the constant flow of students into the facility, to the point that the library was noticeably overpopulated during its hours of operation. The initial sentiment was to abandon the existing facility, but the interest displayed in community charrettes and brainstorming sessions made it clear that there was no interest in seeing the existing building go. Rather, the community members were more interested in an evolution and expansion of the library s service model. The initial efforts at transforming this facility into a modern and contemporary library that adequately addressed the needs of its users focused on the analysis of the existing program and services. While the traditional library is built upon a model that sees the patron visiting the library almost exclusively for checking out books, the 21st century library focuses on a service model that exponentially builds upon that. Libraries have become a community center for patrons, and the staff in charge are limited spatially and functionally when it comes to executing the services, programs, or tasks that patrons request. The shift in recent decades has elevated the library typology; books are still housed and offered in libraries, but the full breadth of services goes much further. workshops with the community, interviews with current staff, and receiving feedback from both regarding what was expected of the facility but was not yet developed, the design team synthesized a 120-page programming document that explained the expectations held by the community of a library facility and the means and methods to accomplishing the fulfillment of these expectations. In short, it provided a quanitative and qualitative framework of action through which the library can transform into a contemporary facility supportive of the community s aspirations and ideas. The document s strategies and proposals also align with the LV-CCLD s Vision 2020 strategy, which seeks to modernize all its branches in the coming years. Upon establishing the requirements of the program, an architectural language for the physical facility began to form. Through the interactions and collaborations with the community and stakeholders, the design efforts focused on transforming the library s program and services so that they aligned with the new and developing definition of the library typology. Understanding that Mesquite Library was overpopulated, it became clear that the facility was a popular one in the community, and the most urgent task was to rework the program so that it addressed the evolving needs of its patrons. Upon conducting
3 SUSTAINABLE DESIGN INTENT AND INNOVATION The client expressed interest in achieving a LEED Silver certification, but the design efforts have the building on course to achieve LEED Gold certification at minimum. Mesquite is working toward becoming a winter retreat for retirees and athletes due to its mild winters and nearby outdoor activities. Because of this, they have become more environmentally conscious in their development efforts. The Mesquite Library will be the first LEED-certified building in the town of Mesquite, an important endeavor that has won over the support of its entire population of 25,000 people. Sustainable strategies and features were integrated into the design using a holistic life cycle approach, which identifies the most beneficial and cost-effective sustainable strategies to minimize the energy consumption of the facility while conserving resources and minimizing adverse effects to the environment. These strategies, when coupled with appropriate construction techniques and effective operational policies, have been proven to improve occupant productivity, health, and comfort. Simultaneously, they reduce the total operation costs of the project. The siting and orientation of the building were chosen to maximize daylight and exterior views. Large overhangs on the east and west facades were designed to reduce heat gain while providing shaded exterior environments for library patrons. Coupled with high performance low-e glazing with thermally broken frames, daylight and views are maximized in 90 percent of all regularly occupied spaces. The public plaza provides gathering spaces shaded by trees for public events and community activities. The exposed building systems, along with a digital energy dashboard and interpretive signage, will serve as an ongoing educational exhibit illustrating the sustainable strategies used in the building and the library site. Erosion and sedimentation control measures are being implemented during construction. The trackout area and SWPP plan will minimize impact to the community during the construction process. There is an existing drainage channel for flood control that will be incorporated into the site stormwater management system. The project is located on a public transportation route as well as a bike path. Bicycle parking spaces will be available in addition to outdoor gathering spaces. Landscaping and exterior design will reduce the heat island effect with high albedo materials. Automatic lighting controls will be in place to provide safety and access lighting while reducing light pollution. Additionally, the existing library building was programmed as a learning center which allows for repurposing in lieu of demolition, thus saving material and space in a landfill. The landscaping will consist of drought-tolerant plants and incorporate a water-efficient drip irrigation system. The building is also designed to use low-flow water fixtures. The interior water use will be further reduced by metered faucets, waterless urinals, and high efficiency mechanical equipment.
4 MATERIAL CHOICES The design of the Mesquite Library uses local resources including steel, aggregate, stone, and additional building materials. The facility was intentionally kept at a lower volume to minimize material consumption. Locally sourced and manufactured CMU, pavers, and stone have been specified and used on the project. The concrete and CMU aggregate as well as the river rock for the gabion walls come from a quarry in nearby Arizona. Most materials used in this project come from within a 500-mile radius, which includes steel from Salt Lake City and interior finishes from Los Angeles. This will help the local economy and reduce the impact of long-distance material transportation. The interiors will also use recycled content where available. The library will only use FSC-certified wood products for the stacks, wood doors, and other interior furnishings. With the extensive use of high performance low-e glazing with thermally broken frames protected by overhangs, daylight and views are maximized in 90 percent of all regularly occupied spaces. The incorporation of zero and low VOC into the paint, adhesive, and sealant selections strives to maintain indoor air quality at its highest level. The goal during construction will be to divert over 80% of the materials from the landfill. The construction waste will be separated on-site and recycled or reused.
