Healthcare

Healthcare projects represent some of the most intense coordination efforts of all project types, with the sequencing of trades and site logistics paramount. As a result, upfront coordination in a design-assist phase with the facade contractor provides excellent value to the client’s project team in prioritizing constructability and performance during early design with the architectural team.


In-patient hospitals typically have taller floor-to-floor spans to accommodate mechanical and building systems within larger plenum zones. Additionally, the exterior skin plays a vital role in the building’s thermal and energy performance, which has stringent interior humidity requirements. The construction of healthcare facilities is a constant balance of enclosing the exterior as early as possible to allow interior fit-out to commence. Enclos project teams introduce delivering strategies that help general contractors and owners envelop the facility early with a high-performance, prefabricated facade in a single-pass so that other trades may soon follow with their interior work.
