WHAT WE DID

As part of the core group of a IPD team, Degenkolb designed structural systems for the new hospital

ABOUT THIS PROJECT

As a core member of the IPD team, Degenkolb designed the structural system for a new 730,000 square foot, 12-story, acute care facility. This is the first application of wall dampers in the U.S.  The team scheduled, quantified, analyzed, and documented the design in real time, reducing waste in the design and construction of Sutter’s largest hospital replacement project.

Features:

• 274 new beds
• Diagnostic and treatment centers
• 1200 space subterranean parking
• Living roofs (or “green roofs”)
• Viscous Wall Dampers, 1^st in the U.S.
• 12-story acute care facility
• Structural System: Steel Moment frame with viscous dampers
• Service: New Design 

Benefits:

• Reduced steel frame weight
• Enhanced seismic performance
