NorthStar BE3 | NorthStar’s 30,000 SF facility was design built to provide efficiencies throughout the development, production and commercialization of radiopharmaceuticals used for therapeutic application and medical imaging. The facility commanded meticulous design of plumbing systems such as domestic water, make-up water, pure water, sanitary sewer, process waste, storm sewer and processed chilled water.
Underground piping was installed in an approximately five-foot-thick reinforced concrete slab. We utilized a fully coordinated BIM design models to produce spool drawings and prefabricate nearly every aspect of the underground piping systems, including supports, drains and clean outs. To achieve a perfect installation, much coordination had to be done during design and in routing of the in-slab piping between all MEP trades and structurally reinforcing steel. Once the install was complete, we performed a 3D scan of the install and overlayed it against the design model to confirm install accuracy.
