Scope Of Work
The Generations of Care project is the largest single construction project in ProMedica's history- a $355-million replacement tower. The 682,000-square-foot, 14-story, 309-bed patient care tower replaced the almost 90-year-old current facility. The project also included a 422-space parking garage close to the facility. The building utilized the concept of off-site prefabricated MEP corridor rack systems. Ihe use of the rack systems allows for increased quality control as the contractors are working on the ground instead of overhead. It also reduces the installation time in the field. Throughout the project, there were numerous challenges that required collaboration between all sides of the design and construction team. One situation that emerged during the design process led to a critical change to the plans for the central energy plant (CEP). In the existing CEP, the emergency power system was expanded. A new 2.25-megawatt medium voltage generator was installed and then paralleled with the existing 2.25-megawatt medium voltage generator. Work on Generations Tower began in April 2016 and construction was completed in June 2019.
