Scope Of Work
Completed in design-build partnership, the 745,000 square foot Martin Army Community Hospital doubles the size of the medical center's current facility, and includes two wings — an outpatient clinic and a 70-bed inpatient facility.
The architectural design, settled into the side of a hill on a 65-acre greenfield site, is a mixture of precast concrete, glass and natural stone, and offers views of landscaped courtyards, natural lighting and water effects. The building is integrated into the site to minimize the foot-print, reduce grading and provide views of nature to promote healing. Green features include a vegetative roof, energy-efficient lighting systems and views of nature, and the project is seeking LEED Silver certification.
