INTRODUCTIONN_
The following project is a proposed adoptive use
of Flint Hall, a building of historical and architectural
significance to the University of Florida. This project
consists of two parts: first, a programatic proposal
designed to determine the needs and spatial requirements
and relationships of the functions proposed for the adap-
tive use project; and second, a design solution and
detail specifications for such a proposal.
Other than being an academic exercise, the princi-
pal purpose of this project is to show the potential that
exists in doing an adaptive use project of Flint Hall, a
building whose structure and spatial qualities are ideal
for such a project. Since the Office of Planning and
Analysis of the University of Florida has no definitive
plans for the future of Flint Hall and since at the present
time the University of Florida has fulfilled all of its
spatial needs, for the sake of the academic exercise, a
need has been assumed to house the Department of History
and general classrooms and assembly functions in Flint
Hall. The reasons why these functions have been selected
for the proposed adaptive use project are due to the com-
patibility that exists between Flint Hall's physical
facilities and the spatial requirements of these functions.
HISTORIC
INFORMATION N
INTRODUCTION
The following section deals with historic data
pertaining to Flint Hall, its setting and its architecture.
This section consists of a series of articles and photo-
graphs which are presented here in hope that they will
contribute to the understanding of the history and the
historic significance of Flint Hall.
HISTORICAL NOTE
The University of Florida is a combined state
University and land-grant college located in the northern
center of the State. While its beginnings go back to
the days previous to Florida's admission to the Union in
1845, its first college--the College of Arts and Sciences--
did not open until 1853. A few years later the passage
of the Morrill Act provided lands for state institutions
of higher learning which would promote agriculture,
mechanical arts and military science, resulting in the
beginnings of the College of Agriculture, the College of
Engineering, and the Agricultural Experiment Station.
By 1905 there were a half-dozen state-supported
institutions of higher learning in Florida, located in
various parts of the State and struggling for existence.
At that time the Florida Legislature took a step unpre-
cedented in the history of education in any state by passing
the Buckman Act, which abolished the six State Colleges
and provided for the establishment of two new institutions,
of which the University of Florida was one. It was es-
tablished for men, at Gainesville and placed under the
direction of the Board of Control, a body created by the
Buckman Act. The seven members of the board represented
the seven geographical sections of the state, and served
without compensation, except for travel and incidental
expense incurred in the performance of duty. In 1947,
the University was made coeducational. The nine-member
Board of Regents replaced the Board of Control in 1965.*

FLINT HALL
In 1906 all of the science classes and laboratories
were located in Thomas and Buckman Halls, but it was
quickly apparent that a separate building was needed to
meet the needs of students and faculty. The Florida legis-
lature appropriated $68,000 for a science building in 1909,
and the Board of Control directed William A. Edwards to
draw up plans. J. J. Cain was the contractor and construc-
tion began in September 1909 on a site that had been
designated on the 1905 campus plan. The building was
completed in April 1910, and it was described at the time
as one of the finest buildings of its kind in the Southeast.
The Departments of Botany, Horticulture, Chemistry, Physics,
Zoology, and Bacteriology were located in Science Hall,
as it was then known. In 1910 the University Museum was
moved to the second floor of Flint from Thomas Hall.
Renamed the Florida State Museum in 1914, it remained in
Flint Hall until the Museum was moved to the Seagle Building
during the 1930s.
Many distinguished scientists taught and carried
on their experiments in Flint Hall, and the results of
their research have had a major impact on the economic
and scientific development of the state and nation. One
of these scientists was Dr. Edward R. Flint, and Science
BIOGRAPHY OF WILLIAM A. EDWARDS
(12/8/1866-3/30/1939), ATLANTA, GA. (A.I.A.)
Born and educated at Darlington, S.C., he entered
the State University was was later graduated with the
first class of Mechanical Engineering taught in the
school. A few years after Mr. Edwards joined the office
of C. C. Wilson, Architect, at Columbia, S.C., and for ten
years continued work there as a draftsman, subsequently
began practice under the firm name of Edwards & Walter.
In 1908 he moved to Atlanta, and after maintaining an
independent office until 1912, joined William J. Sayward
in organizing the firm of Edwards & Sayward, of which he
remained a member for more than twenty-five years.
During his long professional career Mr. Edwards'
work included a wide range and variety of buildings,
churches, court houses, some commercial structures, and
considerable collegiate work. Among the latter were build-
ings at the Florida A & M College at Tallahassee, Adminis-
tration Building, Library and dormitories between 1913 and
1924; at Columbia Theological Seminary, Decatur, Georgia,
Academic Hall and faculty residences, 1926-27; University
of Florida, Gainesville, the Administration Building, Lib-
rary, Science Hall, Law Building, etc., between 1913 and
1925; also buildings at the Florida State College for Women
at Tallahassee; the Florida School for the Deaf, St.
Augustine; Georgia State Woman's College at Valdosta, from
1921 to 1939; Winthrop College, Rock Hill, N.C., and the
Law Building at the University of South Carolina.
In addition the firm designed the Union National
Bank Building at Columbia, S.C., in 1913; the Exchange
Bank and Office Building at Tallahassee, Florida, in 1927,
and the following public buildings: Unitarian Church at
Atlanta, 1914; County Court House at York, S.C., 1914;
Methodist Church at Clarksville, Tennessee, 1916; Baptist
Church at Easley, S.C., 1920; First Presbyterian Church,
York, South Carolina, 1923; Masonic Temple at Decatur, Ga.,
1926; U.S. Post Office and Court House, Columbus, Ga.,
1932; Candler Hotel, Decatur, Ga., 1927; Hotel Thomas,
Gainesville, Florida, 1925; Fannin County Court House,
Blue Ridge, Ga., 1936; Teachers' College at Georgia State
College, 1938, and Keshaw County Court House, Camden, S.C.
Mr. Edwards' work also included several High Schools
built in Georgia, Florida and South Carolina, together
with stores, restaurants, banks, theatres, auditoriums,
recreational and park buildings and residences. In 1933
the firm was commissioned to plan a large housing project
at the University of Atlanta, one of the first of such
projects sponsored by the Federal Government.
Prominently known in Atlanta throughout his long
career, he had been a member of the local Chapter of the
A.I.A. since 1913, and at the time of his death maintained
an office in the Marietta Street Office Building.

FLINT HALL
GENERAL
DESCRIPTION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Flint Hall is located in the University of Florida
Campus, between Newell Drive and Buckman Drive, The north
side of the building faces University Avenue. This building
has been assigned the number eight (8) in the University of
Florida building register.
Flint Hall was built in 1909 by the firm of Edward and
Walter, an architectural firm that operated from Alanta, Georgia.
The building is located on a flat terrain that is land-
scaped with several types of large pine and oak trees as
well as various types of low shrubs. The building is flanked
on the north by a landscaped area that separates the build-
ing from University Avenuei on the south, by another lands-
caped area which separates it from the main parking facility;
on the east, Flint Hall is flanked by Newell Drive, and on
the West by Anderson Hall. Automotive access to the building
occurrs on the east by Newell Drive and on the south by the
main parking facility that serves the building. Sidewalks
surrounding the structure on all sides provide for pedestrian
access. Entrances to the building occurr on the east and south
side of the structure.
Flint Hall was built in the Gothic Revival Style. It
has a rectangular plan with a central corridor which is flanked
by classrooms on either side. The building is a three stoiy
structure composed of exterior and interior brick load bear-
ing walls with a wood frame supporting a clay tile roof.
The facades are composed of brick highlighter with
stonework. There are rows of double hung wood windows
on each floor.
BUILDING SITE
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Flint Hall is located on a flat site in the University
of Florida Campus, between Newell Dr. and Buckman Dr. The
north facade of the building faces University Avenue.
SOILS.
Flint Hall is located in a area where the soil is of a
sandy composition. The Water and Sewer Development Plan for
Alachua County describes the soils of this area in the
following manner:
Hernando Jonesville Association. Broad sandy ridges and
slightly acid yellowish sands; interpersed with small areas
of similar soils.
DRAINAGE
Flint Hall is located on the St. John River Drainage
Basin. The soils around the building, which are composed of a
series of loose sand mixtures, drain well.
VEGETATION
Flint Hall is surrounded by various types of shrubs
and low growing trees. The major landscaped areas adjacent to
Flint Hall are found to the north and the south side of the
building. Here, there are large Long Leaf Pines ( pinus palus-
tre) and Live Oaks, ( quercus virginiana). These trees are
quite old, some of them over 200 years old, and they range
in size from 50 to 75 feet tall for the pine trees and
40 to 65 feet for the Live Oaks.
The vegetation of the site is of the type that requires
no maintenance except for the grass which is mowed regularly.

BEARING SYSTEM
Load bearing wall, wood frame system. Exterior brick load bearing
walls rest directly on a brick foundation wall and support. the first and
second floor as well as the roof structure. The exterior load bearing wall
is approximately 1' 5" thick from the ground floor to the second floor where
it decreases in thickness to approximately 1' 0". This 1' 0" thick wall con-
tinues up to support the roof structure. The interior wood frame load bearing
wall system is composed of 2" x 6" stud walls.
There are some 6" tubular steel columms located on the ground floor of
the building; rooms 2, 16, 1A, 10A. These tubular columns seem to have car-
ried a concentrated load at one time, but their current structural function
is questionable.
*Visual .inspection revealed no apparent structural damage to
the building due to the failure of the bearing system. The
exterior load bearing walls are in good condition except for
some minor damages due to weathering. (See diagram.)

ROOF STRUCTURE
The roof system is a gable timber roof structure
of plank and rafter construction. The 2"x 8" wood rafters
extend continuously from the ridge to the exterior load bear-
ing wall and bear on a 4" by 6" wood plate. These rafters are
spaced at 16" on center and they are supported at the middle
of their span by a 6"x 10" beam which is carried by a timber
armature rising from the central interior load bearing walls.
A series of steel tie rods connecting each pair of
opposing rafters at their base, run the width of the building
and counteract the horizontal thrust created by the roof
structure.
Visual Inspection revealed no evidence of structural
damage due to the failure of the roof structure.
Structural members such as; roof joist and rafters
show no evidence of termite damage, rot or warpage.

BUILDING SURVEY.
EXTERIOR SURFACES.
INTRODUCTION.
The following is a visual survey of the exterior surfaces
of Flint Hall. The purpose of this survey is to evaluate the
current physical conditions of the exterior surfaces of this
building and to identify and document any damage in these
surfaces due to erosion, decay,or weathering.
Due to the nature of this survey, it is impossible to
presicely assess the physical conditions that exist in the
various exterior surfaces of the building. This is mainly due
to the lack of accessibility to some of these building surfaces.
Consequently, the following survey will deal with those aspects
of the exterior surfaces of the building which are clearly vi-
sible and identifiable from the ground plane.
The following survey is organized in two parts. The first
part, consist of a general description of the physical conditions
of the exterior surfaces of Flint Hall. The second part of the
survey deals with the individual facade of the building and the
problems that occur in these facades.
BEIIDING SURVEY.
EXTERIOR SURFACES.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION.
The exterior surfaces of Flint Hall are composed of
a brick load bearing wall of the running bond type, ( 5 rows of
stretchers, 1 row of alternating headers and stretchers), a
series of rows of wood windows, mainly of the double hung type
and a clay tyle roof. Visual inspection revealed no major da-
mage to these surfaces.
WALLS.
There seems to be some slight water damage in the upper
parts of the building, where the brick wall meets the roof.
Also, the first two or three rows of brick which are closest to
the ground plane show evidence ofexcesive humidity, ( mosse
growing on the brick and decoloration of the brick ), which is
due to the poor drainage of the building. In some of the areas
where the building has been renovated, the quality of the work-
manship has been poor, specially in the brick jointery and there
are some areas where the mortar has been washed out by the rain.
A great part of the north and west facades, as well as some
areas of the south facade, are covered with espalier type trees,
( trees that grow parallel to the wall surface using the wall
for support and nourishment), although at the present time there
is no evidence of major damage to the wall as a result of the
growth of these trees, this condition may prove to be harm-
ful to the brick wall.
WINDOWS
Generally, the caulking in most of the windows is dry and
the paint is peeling. The windows in the second seem to be in
much better physical condition than those windows in the first
and ground floor.
For a more detailed study of the physical conditions of the
windows refer to the interior building survey.
ROOF
Visual inspection revealed no apparent damage to the roof
surface.

ADAPTIVE USE
FEASIBILITY
STATEMENT
INTRODUCTION
In doing an adaptive use project such as the one
proposed for Flint Hall, it is necessary to question the
feasibility of such a project in terms of benefit versus
cost. To evaluate this issue, it is important to consider
three factors: The historical significance of the building
to its local, regional or national context; the architec-
tural significance of the building in terms of its quality
of design, uniqueness and physical conditions; and, the
economic feasibility of the adaptive use project. The
following statements deal with the previously mentioned
factors in reference to Flint Hall.
HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE
Flint Hall is historically significant to the
University of Florida since it is one of the few structures
that are left from the original campus plan. Along with
Anderson, Peabody and Floyd, Flint Hall is part of the
quadrangle that surrounds the Plaza of the Americas. Its
position at the northwest corner of this quadrangle is
critical to the symmetry of this important campus area.
Buildings such as Flint Hall have had a tremendous
impact on the development of the architecture of the
University of Florida. One clear example of such an impact
is the extensive use of brick veneer by contemporary
structures such as General Purpose Building A and the
Forestry Building.
Flint Hall is a fine example of the collegiate
work the firm of Edwards and Walters, whose works are of
regional importance to the southeastern sector of the
United States. Flint Hall has been nominated for the
National Register of Historic Places for its historical
and architectural significance.
ARCHITECTURAL SIGNIFICANCE
As one of the earliest collegiate Gothic buildings
designed for the University of Florida, Flint Hall is
architecturally irreplaceable in terms of its design and
construction. It would be unfeasible and unlikely to design
a building such as Flint Hall today. Another aspect which
adds to the architectural significance of Flint Hall is the
fact that, unlike many of the other older buildings on
campus whose exteriors have been the victims of unsympathe-
tic additions, Flint Hall's exterior character remains
almost intact and free from alterations. Also, Flint
Hall is structurally sound, and its interior wood frame
construction as well as its spatial organization would make
an adaptive use project a relatively simple and inexpensive
task. Flint Hall's twenty-five-foot bay, ample interior
corridor and window area make it an ideal classroom or
office building. Its location west of Library West is
also ideal for such purpose.
ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY
The Ad Hoc Committee for the Preservation of
Campus Sites conducted a study on the economic feasibility
of remodeling Flint Hall. The result of this study indicates
that compared with the cost of new classroom construction,
the cost of remodeling Flint Hall would be less expensive
(new construction: $38.50 sq. ft.; remodeling: $8.00 sq.
ft.; a ratio of 4 to 1). Also, the Ad Hoc Committee studied
the comparative energetic cost of air-conditioning Flint
Hall. The following is a copy of the report presented
by the Ad Hoc Committee to University of Florida President,
Robert Q. Marston.

Dear President Marston:
Several years ago, during a time of relatively cheap and abundant energy
supplies, a decision was made to begin design on a new classroom complex
(GPA) and to remove several old, turn of the century, classroom buildings.
At that time these old buildings were thought to be outdated, expensive to
air condition and modernize, and not in pace with the quality teaching
environment of the newer structures on the University campus.
Since that time, a new condition of expensive and diminishing energy supply
has descended upon us. Decisions that were valid at that time relative to
the existing information must now be reevaluated given the .new situation.
It now becomes obvious that the old structures, with their thick masonry walls,
high ceilings, operable windows, cross ventilation, and insulative attic
spaces, are the type of buildings that were designed to perform without air
conditioning and embody many of the elements of today's environmentally
responsive design techniques.
For your information, an analysis of the costs of new construction vs. remodel-
ing and the operating costs.of air conditioned buildings (which constitute
2/3 of all energy consumption on the U. F. campus) vs. mechanically ventilated
and hybrid ventilated/air conditioned buildings, has been prepared. Assisting
me in the preparing of this analysis were Associate Professor Ira Winarsky,
director of the Urban Systems Sector of our recent Carrying Capacity research
and Assistant Professor Gary Ridgdill, director of research on our recent
publication "Value of Energy Conservation in Buildings" sponsored by the
Florida Energy Committee. .
We have used, as a base for our energy consumption analysis, Flint Hall which
is now occupied by the College of Architecture. Flint Hall was chosen as we
have experienced two years of teaching in this structure with minimum air
conditioning, and we feel we have a real insight into the behavior of this
building over an adequate period of time. We have compared the performance of
a remodeled Flint Hall with other air" conditioned classroom buildings such as

It is apparent that newer buildings such as CPA are more efficient in energy
consumption relative to cooling costs than older buildings; however, it should
be noted that the $.35/sq. ft. for cooling operating costs are 3-1/2 times
the cost for operating the hybrid fan/AC system proposed for Flint Hall. An
analysis of all of the air conditioned classroom space would show a ratio in
excess of 4 to 1 in operating costs over the proposed Flint Hall system.

SUMMARY
1. COST OF REMODELING COIMPARED-TO COST OF NEW CLASSROOM CONSTRUCTION.
An attempt was made to identify the elements of remodeling in Flint
Hall to bring this building to a workable and comfortable building
and to bring the maintenance schedule into a posture similar to the
modern buildingsof our campus. The comparative costs are as follows:
Costs of new construction (GPA)
Cost of remodeling (est. Flint)
Ratio of new construction remodeled
$38.50/sq.ft.
8.00/sq.ft.
+ 4 to 1
2. COSTS OF OPERATION OF TYPICAL AIR CONDITIONED CLASSROOM SPACE COMPARED
TO HYBRID VENTILATED/AIR CONDITIONED SYSTEMS.
Average costs of air conditioned space
Cost of hybrid system (Flint Hall, see enclosure 2)
Ratio of air conditioned space to hybrid system
1 .44/sq.ft./yr.
.10/sq.ft./yr.
4 .to' .
It is obvious, in view of the above estimates, that the recycling of our
older structures into an environmentally acceptable mode, is financially
viable insofar as remodeling and operating costs are concerned.
It is to be understood that this analysis has considered classroom type space
only and not functions that demand a higher technology of climate control.
Remodeling of existing space to house such high technology functions-should
be considered as a separate issue and the ratios.offered in this report are
not applicable.
CONCLUSION
It is obvious that the preservation of Flint Hall
is a worthwhile project in terms of the architectural
and historical significance of this building as well as the
economic feasibility of such a project.
PROGRAMMED
SPACES EN
As it has been previously mentioned in the intro-
duction to this program, the selection of the History
Department and classroom functions as the proposed adaptive
use functions for Flint Hall was based on the compatibility
that exists between Flint Hall's physical facilities and
the spatial requirements of these functions.
In determining the programatic and spatial require-
ments of the History Department and its classroom space,
the Facilities Program for General Purpose Building A
prepared by the Division of Planning and Analysis was
used as a model. This programatic model was thoroughly
discussed with Dr. Funk, chairman of the History Depart-
ment of the University of Florida. Dr. Funk made several
recommendations as to the need for additional functions and
spaces to be incorporated into the programatic model.
Also, Dr. Funk provided a list of the current classroom
needs of the History Department and the various types of
classrooms required to fulfill these needs. It was
determined that the History Department would need three
types of classroom space. A large assembly type classroom
to accommodate from 100 to 150 students, a regular type
classroom to accommodate 45 students and a seminar type
classroom to accommodate from 15 to 20 students. The
spatial requirements for these various types of classrooms
were determined by a formula provided by the Division of
Planning and Analysis based on the number of students per
classroom times an assignable area per student (see program).
The total number of classrooms needed by the History
Department was determined by computing the total number of
hours per week of classroom use for each type of class-
room and dividing this number by 45, the maximum number
of hours of classroom use in one week. The resulting
number is the minimum number of classrooms needed to
accommodate the History Department's needs at 100 percent
usage of the classroom space. Additional classroom spaces
are added to the minimum number figured in order to obtain
a reasonable percentage of classroom use.
For specific information concerning the History
Department's classroom needs see the section of the
program pertaining to this subject.

AND CONCEPT
DESIGN CRITERIA AND CONCEPT
In view of the information presented in this
program, it is clear that Flint Hall is an historically
significant building which is structurally and physically
sound. Taking these two factors into consideration as
well as other programatic and aesthetic considerations
and the economic feasibility of such an adaptive use
project, I have established the following concept with
regard to the proposed design solution for this project.
CONCEPT STATEMENT
To promote the preservation of Flint Hall, by tak-
ing advantage of its spatial and structural qualities to
adapt a new function into the building with the minimum
amount of destruction of its present exterior character.
DESIGN CRITERIA
In order to execute the previously stated concept,
I have established the following design criteria:
*As much as possible, to try to preserve
the exterior character of the building
in its present form
*Work with the existing structural system
of the building
*When possible, try to be historically
true to the building
*Develop the building and its exterior
grounds so as to promote its preservation
