Project Organization
4
Feasibility Study Conducted from December 2005 through July 2006
5
Impacts Evaluated Construction Impacts Design Impacts Operational Impacts Downstream Impacts
6
Construction Impacts Site Logistics/Staging Construction Access Construction Supply - Bates and Bertner Crane Placement & Removal Vibration/Noise Waterproofing Infection Control - dust Safety-dropped loads
7
Construction Impacts Site Logistics/Staging oCreate Contractor’s Entrance to Rotunda oRemoval of Canopies oClosing West Entrance to Rotunda
8
Construction Access Allow for emergency exits Keep reception desk open Keep construction traffic out of the main lobby Maintain access to Physical Therapy
9
Construction Impacts Construction Supply - Bates and Bertner Intermittent Lane Closures along Bertner and Bates will be required
10
Construction Impacts Crane Placement & Removal In existing empty staff elevator shafts
11
Construction Impacts Site Logistics/Staging Construction Access Construction Supply - Bates and Bertner Crane Placement & Removal Vibration/Noise Waterproofing Infection Control - dust Safety-dropped loads
12
Design Impacts Structure – continuation of concrete frame Use of lighter weight wall panels – fiber reinforced concrete HVAC Issues Electrical Issues Plumbing Issues Wind Tunnel Study
13
Impacts to Number of Beds per Floor Changes to Codes and Standards Increased Room Size Increased Toilet Size – all fully accessible Operational Improvements Additional space to accommodate Murphy Beds and to allow appropriate circulation for nursing Flexible Acuity Room Design
14
Current 52-Bed Floorplate
15
Proposed Floorplate – 40 – 44 beds
16
Design Impacts Maximize footprint by eliminating deep recesses at windows, put square footage back into patient room Overall appearance of the tower can be preserved
18
Design Impacts Shift stairs and major mechanical chases closer to elevator core, creating more support space directly adjacent to nursing unit Transition can happen at Level 13, the new mechanical floor
19
Elevators Infill two existing shafts for staff Create 6 new passenger cabs
20
Design Impacts Optimal sequence for future build-out oGrowth model may drive recommendation for build out (Inpatient vs. Outpatient vs. support) oSequence should minimize disruption to occupants as shell floors are built out.
21
Proposed Stacking Vacant during construction Shell
22
Operational Impacts Closing of Rotunda drive and west entrance Visitors - Garage 2 Valet Operations Access Flooding Exposure Discharges Patient Advocacy/Visitor Center/Porcelain Bird Collection 12th Floor/protected environment rooms PT/OT – Closure of gardens used for gait training and pet therapy
23
Alkek Drive and West Entrance –How can the duration be mitigated? G12 must be vacated –Potential staging area for contractor, but space must be preserved Operational Impacts Key Issues
