UPCOMING  ACTIVITIES:

The following activities will take place May 14 to May 20, 2012.

 Building Exterior Cladding

Crews are onsite installing the major components of the exterior of the building. These include metal window frames and glass, ribbed metal panels and stone shingles. The frosted glass awnings and the colored glass fins will follow.  A mock-up showing potential colors is located on the construction site and is visible from Sand Point Way.

You can see the ‘Fraco’ lifts (replacing scaffolding that used to be used) on the exterior of the building. These help workers safely move across and up and down the building face to install the exterior materials. These activities will continue into summer when the building should be well enclosed.

Building Interior Work

Crews are onsite installing the metal stud-framed walls that make up most of the interior partitions. They are also running duct work for the air handling units which have been installed, and running conduit for all the power and lighting systems. Crews are also installing the fire sprinklers on all the floors. Besides these basic systems, we have a pneumatic tube system, medical gas systems, and many low voltage wiring systems for all the specialty equipment.

Roofing Activities

Crews are onsite installing the roofing. This includes two “green” roofs which have helped us earn credits towards our LEED goal of Gold.  (A green roof is a roof of a building that is partially, or completely, covered with vegetation.)  Roofing activities will continue into June.

Seattle Public Utilities Work

SPU will be working on all three surrounding streets: NE 45th Avenue, 40th Avenue NE, and Sand Point Way NE. The first work will start on 45th and you may have already seen them doing some sawcut layout on the street surface. We will work with them to try and notify you in advance of work they are performing.

Seattle City Light will be working in the fire lane off and on during the week, including some evenings.  This quiet work is necessary to make new electrical service connections.

We’re performing parking lot upgrades on the east side of the hospital campus which will include some weekend work.  Starting at 8AM on Friday, we will demolish and remove some asphalt pavement in lot 4 in the NE portion of the campus.  Also, starting at 9AM on Saturday we will repave and install some concrete curbing in the same area creating some truck noise and pavement odor.
