| STUDY FOR THE OAKES MUSEUM AT MESSIAH COLLEGE |
| Messiah College, Grantham, PA |
The 10,000 sq. ft. museum, located on the first two floors of the college's Jordan Science Center, is home to a collection of Smithsonian-quality African and North American mammals, bird eggs, fish, seashells, minerals, insects and fossils. Schiller and Hersh was retained to conduct a study of the humidity issues that have been causing deterioration of museum artifacts. A new HVAC system will be designed to meet museum-level indoor air quality and humidity standards.
