Project Scope

Vertical Expansion
The project included a 150,000 sf renovation, a 160,000 sf two-story vertical expansion, and full infrastructure upgrades. The redesigned envelope features a new entrance, stone and terracotta rainscreen cladding, ACM panels, curtainwall, and green roof.
Research & SIM
CPH features labs, research rooms, offices, classrooms, bookstore, and a simulation center featuring spaces that replicate a real-world environment such as a hospital, outdoor park, restaurant, row home, and ambulance bay allowing students to practice scenarios from injury through recovery.
BIM
BIM was utilized for coordinating trades through the use of model federation, issue tracking, and clash detection. The team also held Solution Driven Workshops.
