University Health Network - Lab Medicine 8th Floor Fit-Out
Completion: May 18, 2020
Location: Toronto
Kelson was the mechanical contractor for the installation of a new 31,950 sq. ft. wet lab facility located on Level 8 of the MaRS Phase 2 tower. There is also an additional 6,350 sq.ft. of lab administrative functions located on Level 11 of the Norman Urquhart Building at Toronto General Hospital. The intent of this project is to consolidate Anatomic Pathology and Flow Cytometry labs with HLA, Molecular Diagnostics and Cancer Cytogenetics into one site, providing operational efficiencies between lab functions and to increase lab capacities to meet growing Stem Cell Transplant (SCT) volumes.
Mechanical Systems
Kelson mechanical highlights: RO/Vacuum/Chilled beams/HVAC system for all rooms. Â Kelson coordination all services above ceiling using BIM capabilities. Kelson provided internally coordinated drawings, sprinkler/electrical interference with the lab space. Balancing/Coordination with base building air/exhaust/heating/chilled water had to be carefully coordinate as the building was occupied and our floor affected base building equipment. Reverse osmosis system was coordinated with owner and consultants. Â AirGenuity system was utilized to minimize air changes required to lab spaces, and conserve energy where possible.
