RBSD designed an addition of 70,000-square-feet and renovation of 155,000-square-feet in an existing campus structure, to house the School of Dental Medicine.  The building, intended to function as a dental teaching facility and research laboratory,  contained 420 dental operatories, oral surgery facilities, research laboratories, materials laboratories, classrooms, offices, and conference and seminar spaces.  Built of precast concrete, the structure was specially designed to harmonize with both the existing structure and the adjacent campus buildings.
