Allen + Shariff provided engineering services for a renovation of an existing Respiratory suite on the first floor of UPMC Passavant Hospital for use by Magee Women’s Health and Imaging services. Services also include relocation of the Respiratory suite to the fourth floor. The project space included approximately 12,000 square feet of clinical space.

The project consisted of VAV’s located throughout the space based on use and exposure. Multiple exhaust fans were upgraded throughout the project to provide exhaust air to satisfy room requirements. Sinks, water closets, clinical sinks, and ice machines were added per UPMC standards. Medical gas outlets were installed in the imaging and respiratory suites. A new area alarm panel was provided at the nurse station. Fire protection was also designed throughout the space.

Electrical engineering included modifications to general power, lighting, fire alarm, tele/data, and nurse call. Lighting consisted of dimmable 2x2s, downlights, and accent cove lighting. Electrical panelboards were added to the space to accommodate additional electrical loads. A new fire alarm and nurse call panel were added. Installation requirements for the imaging equipment were strictly coordinated with the manufacturer to provide conduit, cable trays, junction boxes etc.
