Project Description:
The Boys Town National Research Hospital West was constructed to allow the original Hospital to expand outside of its downtown location continuing its growth in both research and treatment of primarily ear, nose, and throat illnesses.
The 40,700 square foot hospital includes 22 patient rooms, 5 operating rooms, a pharmacy, and one specialized treatment and procedure room. Over 65% of the work was done with our own forces. This included the installation of the Medical Gas Systems that were installed by a few of our many certified Med Gas installers. We also installed a complete Chilled water system and Hot Water Heat System for conditioning the space. We fabricated the majority of this piping in our shop utilizing our CAD machine and operator. We also laid out all of our underground piping on the CAD system thereby assuring accurate installations as well as providing accurate drawings for as built drawings. All of the prefabrication, drawings, and coordination were necessary in order to complete this project 2 months ahead of schedule.
