UNT Facilities Planning, Design and Construction is leading a life safety project in Wooten Hall. A code upgrade to install sprinklers and isolate a monumental staircase is underway to create safe egress. A wall will be built in the staircase to enclose it, therefore preventing smoke from traveling from floor to floor in the case of a fire emergency. An interior refresh updated look will accompany this project by renovating existing ceilings in corridors. This is a one-time project that will last the lifetime of the building.
