Frederick Community College Facilities Master Plan Chapter 5 The College Today 5-A-7 May, 2023 Catoctin Hall – Building C Building Description Building Designation 3. Catoctin Hall – Building C Number of Floors 2 Net Assignable Square Feet 28,383 Gross Building Area - GSF 54,920 Net-to-Gross Efficiency 51.7% Year Constructed 1970 Renovations 1989, 1991 (renovation/addition (chemical storage and greenhouse), 2000 (interior finishes) Additions 1995 (mechanical room), 2015 Contains Academic spaces – classrooms, science labs, faculty offices General Condition Good Adequacy of Space Generally adequate for functions housed in the building Sprinkler System Fully sprinklered Providing space for classrooms, science labs and faculty offices, the original Catoctin Hall is one of the original campus buildings built in 1970. A major 2-story addition was added in 2015 and serves as biomedical classrooms and laboratories. Finishes in the 2015 addition are in excellent condition. Focus areas for capital renewal needs over a 10year period from 2023-2032 include the following: • Exterior masonry sealant and cement board repair and recoating to the original C building in the 3-5 year time frame. • Interior finish repair/replacement in portions of the original C building in the 2-3 year timeframe. • Exterior window/door replacement in the original C building in the 3-5 year timeframe. • Floor replacement in the chemical storage room in years 1-2. Although the standing seam metal roof on the original C building was replaced in 1995, roof replacement for both the metal and flat singleply roof sections would fall outside the 10-year planning period. One of the three buildings A, B, and C that are informally linked to each other, the original interior spaces and connection to building B is disorienting due to the angled relationship at the connecting knuckle. Classroom depths from corridor to exterior wall are either 29’-6” or a very narrow 21’-6”. The original front-and-rear opening elevator does not meet current code requirements.
