Think: Cool Bisnow Healthcare Event
With Bisnow’s National Healthcare Summit coming up Nov. 8-9 (Radisson Blu Hotel, register here!) we thought we'd introduce you to one of our esteemed panelists, Environmental Systems Design SVP Randy Ehret. As an engineer and mathematician, it’s rare that he sees the MEP systems his team designs featured in TV ads. But creating an air-handling system for Rush Medical Center’s new complex (that keeps the air quality throughout the facility operating-room-clean) was news that the hospital broadcast. |
Randy’s team is gearing-up to start designing MEP systems for two mega-medical complexes in the Mid-East (front row: Dina Hoerth, Craig Kos, Ramesh Munagala and Randy). Last spring, they did the schematic design for the Saudi Arabian King Abdullah Medical City: a 4.4M SF hospital, a 269k SF research building, a 419k SF rehabilitation facility, and a 300k SF academic building. The challenge: complete the design concepts in two months and work with codes and standards different than those used in the US. |
