Consolidation on civil engineering and technical infrastructure at CERN from now to 2010

The age of the civil engineering structure (office buildings, halls) and of tertiary technical equipment (mainly HVAC and electricity) at CERN is such that their renovation must be considered in the near future. Due to the large number of buildings and equipment in these conditions, and the restricted budget available, it is extremely important to define priorities. The aim of this note is to give the picture of the current conditions and the related problems, based on the backlog of CERN database (MP5) and confronting it with the inventory made at CERN by an external company. After having identified the most frequent problems and repairs to carry out, a planning for intervention is therefore presented optimizing the safety aspects, maintenance costs and comfort for the users. The timescale of this intervention is related to the money that will be available in the coming years.
