Science Collaboration Centre at Chalk River, Ontario
Chalk River, ONThe Science Collaboration Centre at Canadian Nuclear Laboratories’ Chalk River campus is a six-storey mass timber building designed to foster collaboration and innovation in nuclear science. Positioned on a cascading site overlooking the Ottawa River Valley, the building bridges east-west and north-south travel between campus facilities and common spaces. A multi-purpose building with flexible, lofted office spaces atop a mix of conference and meeting space levels, the Science Collaboration Centre houses meeting rooms, flex spaces, an auditorium, library space, a rooftop terrace, and a data centre. Using Integrated Project Delivery (IPD), the design process involved close collaboration between architects, engineers, and suppliers to create a resilient, sustainable, forward-thinking, world-class science facility that meets federal requirements for net-zero carbon-ready facilities.
