Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the Stanford laboratory standard&design guide?

  The Stanford Laboratory Standard & Design Guide is a resource document for use by faculty, staff, and design professionals during the planning and early design phases of a project.

• What is the approved laboratory design guideline?

  Laboratory Design; Approved Guideline— Second Edition This document provides a foundation of information about laboratory design elements and guidance to help define the issues to be considered when designing a clinical laboratory.

• What are the essential features of laboratory design?

  Laboratory design shall include a storage area for cylinders of compressed gases where: they are protected from external heat sources such as flame impingement, intense radiant heat, electric arc, or high temperature steam lines. 2. Adequate space shall be made available for the segregation of gases by hazard class.

• What standards have who developed for diagnostic laboratories?

  WHO has developed several standards for disease-speci fi c diagnostic laboratories. One example is polio, where accreditation is required in order for a laboratory to participate in the Polio Network for Eradication of Poliomyelitis.

• What is the Stanford laboratory standard&design guide?

  The Stanford Laboratory Standard & Design Guide is a resource document for use by faculty, staff, and design professionals during the planning and early design phases of a project.

• What are the requirements for laboratory design?

  Laboratory design shall include spill control and secondary containment for the storage of hazardous materials liquids in accordance with the requirements of Uniform Fire Code Sections 8003.1.3.

• What is the EH&S laboratory design guide?

  The resulting construction projects often have significant health and safety requirements due to regulatory oversight. Since these requirements can impact the design of a project, Environmental Health and Safety (EH&S) prepared this EH&S Laboratory Design Guide to aid the campus community with planning and design issues.

• What are the subsections of the general laboratory design section?

  The subsections of Section 1.0 provide specific guidance on additional critical features of a general laboratory (e.g., fume hoods, hazardous materials storage, and compressed gases.) 1. Designer Qualifications- The designer must have the appropriate professional license in his/her area of expertise. 2.
