Effective contagion control strategies at state-of-the-art research facilities are influencing the next generation of lab environments, healthcare spaces and other workplaces.
As organizations assess their existing infrastructure and plan for the future, they can learn valuable lessons from public health and biocontainment labs. Because these secure research facilities are designed and built with the primary function of protecting individuals and communities, they’re helping to guide the development of future work environments.
During this virtual event, experts in construction, architecture, and animal and human health research organizations will examine design and operational strategies that prioritize safety, security and productivity.
The CHRISTUS Spohn Health System Master Facility Plan included more than 1 million square feet of demolition, 400,00 square feet of new construction and 160,000 square feet of renovations at the Shoreline and Memorial CHRISTUS Spohn campuses.
Work on the complex, in operation since 1888, included several structures, renovation and extension to the existing inpatient hospital, a new outpatient building, a parking structure and a new Wellness & Aquatics Center — all blended seamlessly into one cohesive campus.
A 450,000-square-foot, nine-story, 230-bed replacement hospital in the heart of Emory University's campus. This LEED Silver project features patient care units for cancer and transplant, diagnostic and treatment spaces, intensive care unit rooms, general medicine and surgery rooms and operating rooms.
Located on a 67-acre campus, this 500,000-square-foot design-build hospital provides modern, safe and effective medical care for 70,000 of our nation’s veterans and heroes. The facility is LEED Gold certified, designed to meet California’s stringent seismic regulations and was delivered $100 million under budget.
This 875,000-square-foot, seven-story, 260-plus private room hospital replaced the former St. John’s Mercy Regional Medical Center demolished by Missouri’s deadly May 22, 2011, EF-5 tornado. McCarthy worked tirelessly on behalf of the community to complete construction in 46 months — approximately half the time normally needed to plan, design, and construct a similarly sized hospital.
This 11-story, 370,000-square-foot emerging infectious diseases laboratory facility for the CDC in Atlanta includes Biosafety Levels 2, 3 and 4 laboratories. This facility doubled the CDC’s existing BSL-4 capacity. BSL-4 labs are the highest-containment laboratories in existence, and construction required specialized equipment and high-quality construction techniques to create an absolutely air-tight environment.
ENR’s 2018 Project of the Year, this 191,036-sqaure-foot LEED Platinum facility includes five stories, a mechanical penthouse, and 60,000 square feet of flexible lab space. The building’s adaptable design accommodates multiple types of scientific research, including chemistry, biological sciences and engineering research.
The seven-floor, 320,000-square-foot LEED Platinum research center features wet and dry lab space, administrative offices, a 200-seat auditorium, cafes and ground-floor retail space. The Integrated Project Delivery method ensured streamlined communication and strategic alignment of goals throughout the project.
The three-level, 116,000-square-foot facility consists of two mirror-image wings joined by an open-air plaza at the entrance and underground. Each wing contains undifferentiated, contiguous lab space, as well as lab support areas. Using innovative concrete forming methods, McCarthy constructed full-height concrete shear walls along the perimeter of both wings to enhance user flexibility by freeing up lab spaces at any permanent wall.
