This was a negotiated project with Boldt that was based on a narrative and was developed into a cost. Sheet Metal Workers, Pipe Fitters and Plumbers were the type of trade workers involved in the project. Medical gas skills were required for the plumbing trade. Steam Fitters were required to have specific welding certifications based on the steam piping.

Boldt Construction self-performed the majority of the general construction. HJ Martin was responsible for the walls and sheet rock work. We utilized Badger Balancing for the TAB on the project. We also used Complete Control for the Control System and L&C Insulation for all insulating requirements.

We used the Total Station with success and started to utilize Stratus for tracking the materials as well as One Construct. Many hospital facilities are not very energy efficient just because of the nature of the buildings and the people inside. They utilize more air exchanges which in turn makes the heating & cooling systems operate at much higher levels.

One challenge of this project was our compressed schedule and the lack of local trade labor to help the Tweet/Garot crews.

To date there has been no reported injuries reported on this project’s jobsite.
