This month’s B2B will focus on a new 12-story patient tower located at a health care campus. This month’s test will address the design intent of an engineered zoned smoke control of return air, supply air, and exhaust air system serving the patient floor common corridors. The associated elevator tower will have its own, stand alone engineered smoke control 100% outside air unit to positive-pressurized elevator shaft system.
At the recommendation of the design team leader, the building owner has chosen the project delivery method to be construction management (CM) in accordance with Construction Management Association of America (CMAA).
