Project Description:
The project consists of 2 additions totaling 60,000 square feet in addition to the existing hospital. All services are required, including medical gas, plumbing, hot water heat and air distribution. When the first phase of Area A is complete the hospital personnel on 6th floor will occupy this area and the existing floor will be remodeled. This includes demolition and installation of new systems that will have to be brought up from the lower level mechanical room thru the new 7 story north addition (without interrupting the hospitals current service) before renovation of the 6th floor can start.
After the 6th floor is renovated we will proceed down to 4th as the 4th floor staff will move into the newly renovated 6th floor. The project will continue in this fashion as the construction moves down a floor the hospital staff will move into the newly renovated floors. This project was not bid as a design build. However, there were / are some areas especially in the existing hospital where a combined effort between the General, Architect, Engineer, and our forces were required in order to make everything fit and function properly for the owner.
