Copper installation the right choice at Children's Hospital

摘要

Slated to open next month, the 425,000-sq. ft., five-story, 192-bed Nemours/A.I. duPont Hospital for Children expansion is an impressive example of how design/build team collaboration is key to the success of any installation. The first floor of the building will contain a new emergency department, atrium and retail and dining facility. The second through fifth floors each contain two wings of 24 inpatient beds. The second floor contains 32 beds of critical care PICU beds and 16 beds of step-down and med-surg beds. The new building is connected to the existing facility with a three-story connecting link. Plus, the expansion includes a 108,000-sq.ft., 188-car ground-level parking garage below the new addition.
