Scope Of Work
Hackensack University Medical Center (HUMC), part of the Hackensack Meridian Health Group, is a non-profit, research and teaching hospital and the largest provider of New Jersey’s inpatient and outpatient services. The new, nine-story 2nd Street Pavilion is a 500,000 SF addition which will expand the number of private rooms, add a modern surgery center, and increase intensive care capacity.
With space already limited on the steeply sloping campus, the pavilion footprint required a deep excavation immediately adjacent to active facilities ranging in height from 1-6 stories. The new addition would also require large (up to 6,000 kips) axial and lateral (100 kips) foundation loads to be supported on drilled shafts. Additionally, the original contract documents included a conceptual design for an earth retention system, with the portion of the system adjacent to the existing, operational hospital (3-ft off the pile line) shown as a large, cantilevered secant pile wall.
