About this file
This file is a preproposal conference presentation from Radford University regarding the Academic Health Sciences Building (AHSB) in Roanoke, Virginia. The project represents a collaborative effort to develop a new stand-alone campus facility designed to house eleven comprehensive health sciences programs across 300,000 gross square feet. The building program includes 194,660 assignable square feet distributed among simulation and skills teaching labs (81,990 ASF), public and social spaces (41,180 ASF), classrooms (24,280 ASF), offices and workspaces (39,160 ASF), research facilities (3,280 ASF), and building support spaces (4,770 ASF). The preproposal conference was conducted on October 26, 2026, and the overall project schedule spans from pre-design through construction completion, with anticipated first class occupancy and move-in occurring in Spring 2030. The project site is located on a minimum of 2.3 acres in downtown Roanoke and will support workforce development in health professions serving rural communities throughout Southwest Virginia.
The presentation identifies the project as a construction management at-risk (CMAR) request for qualifications and emphasizes that the facility will foster interprofessional education and well-being for students, faculty, staff, and community members. The project is driven by regional health outcomes needs in the Roanoke Valley, which has a regional population of 315,000 and serves as a key healthcare nexus in Southwestern Virginia. The file does not contain specific pricing information, contract term details, funding sources, or set-asides. The presentation focuses on project vision, program components, site location relative to existing healthcare organizations including Carilion Health System, and the integrated academic schedule that accommodates university calendars including breaks and academic terms through 2031.
