Frederick Community College Facilities Master Plan Chapter 4 Needs Assessment 4-50 May 12, 2023 Class Laboratory guideline allowance assumes 15 hours per week target room utilization; 60% seat occupancy rate; 50 NASF per student for natural and social science labs; and 115 NASF per student station for technical and career labs. The allowance assumes 80% of lab contact hours are generated in natural and social science labs, and 20% in technical and career labs. Open Laboratory guideline allowance assumes a space factor of 4.2 NASF/FTDE. Given the current inventory of laboratory space, guideline application suggests a current deficit in class laboratory space of 8,246 NASF and a deficit of 20,265 NASF by 2030. Application to open laboratory space suggests a current deficit of 955 NASF and a deficit of 2,379 NASF by 2030. This anticipated reduced space deficit is attributed primarily to a projected 26% increase in enrollment with only 10% increase in available laboratory space. The College currently owns 88% of the space allowance in this combined category. The data suggests that by 2030, the College will own 77% of its computed space allowance. Academic Support Space: These spaces provide environments that directly support the institution’s instructional and research activities. Academic Support Space Office (300): Office facilities are individual, multi-person, or workstation spaces specifically assigned to faculty, staff, or students in academic, administrative, and service functions of a college or university. This category also includes conference rooms, file rooms, break rooms, kitchenettes, copy rooms, and testing/tutoring space. The guideline allows: 166 NASF per individual requiring office space, plus 1,120 NASF core space for student offices 1,500 NASF core space, plus 0.5 NASF/FTDE in excess of 1,500 FTDE for testing and tutoring Given the current inventory of office space, guideline application suggests a current deficit of 25,084 NASF and a deficit of 49,683 NASF by 2030.
