6 Medical Construction & Design | M A RCH /A PR IL 2017 | MCDM AG.COM A fourth fl oor south renovation within Naples Community Hospital in Florida has been completed. Stevens Construction built the 22,594-square-foot project, which was designed by Studio+. The fl oor houses a 23-bed oncology specialty care department and a 12-bed behavioral health treatment center. The project also includes construction of nurse stations, offi ces, conference room and a serenity room. Plans are underway to construct a pediatric emergency department for Albany Medical Center in New York. The four-story, 70,500-square-foot facility, expected to be completed late 2018, will be open 24/7, seven days a week. Consigli Construction Co., Inc. is managing construction and Hyman Hayes Associates is the architect for the project. JE Dunn Construction has been awarded the $49.2-million medical clinic renovation at Hurlburt Field in Mary Esther, Florida through the United States Army Corps of Engineers, Little Rock District. In association with Hoefer Wysocki Architecture, the 81,000-square-foot medical complex will be fully renovated and expanded by 2,200 square feet. The project will be designed to achieve LEED Silver certifi cation. Design and construction will take 39 months. United Excel, with support from KAI Design & Build, was recently awarded two Design-Build initial outfi tting contracts. The projects, awarded by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Little Rock District, will renovate the medical clinics located at Minot Air Force Base , North Dakota and Vance Air Force Base , Oklahoma. Both projects will be complete in 38 months. The Minot project will be designed to obtain LEED Silver certifi cation; the Vance Air Force Base project will be designed to obtain LEED certifi cation. Projects LEAN CONSTRUCTION Prefab Turns Out Healing Spaces Lean construction techniques, advanced technologies deliver Delbert Day Cancer Institute The Delbert Day Cancer Institute, a comprehensive cancer care facility on the campus of Phelps County Regional Medical Center in Rolla, Missouri, was recently completed. Constructed by McCarthy Building Companies, it is equipped with the latest cancer treatment technologies and amenities. BSA LifeStructures designed the 37,000-square-foot building. Located at the north side of the main hospital campus, the $31.3-million building is connected to an adjacent medical offi ce building via a pedestrian bridge. The fi rst fl oor, which opens to an exte- rior healing garden, includes a lobby and registration area, retail space, a health café, education space and a community center. On the second fl oor, infusion services and a medical oncology clinic off er scenic views of a green roof. To optimize effi ciency, the project team employed Lean construction techniques, including the construction of prefabricated mechanical, engineer- ing and plumbing systems directly from the BIM model to reduce site waste. Advanced construction technologies were used, including a semi-automated robotic mason to enhance the effi ciency of bricklaying. To generate the unique geometry of the prefabricated curtain- wall system and prefabricated MEP systems, the team used a robotic layout. completed & upcoming STATS: $31.3 MILLION > 37,000 SQUARE FEET > PREFABRICATION ELEMENTS INCLUDE CURTAINWALL, MEP SYSTEMS IN BRIEF Delbert Day: Sam Fentress
