project teams to improve facility performance.
Healthy outlook for New England Construction market
Health Care Market
FMI is forecasting 5% growth for healthcare construction during 2015.
With continuing changes due to health care reforms, a difficult funding
environment and changes to delivery methods, health care is facing
many changes right now. Ambulatory health care centers and renovations
to existing facilities in order to be competitive and keep up with
changing technologies and patient needs will continue to be the focus
for construction. One of the major goals for health care is to continue to
refine its processes to be leaner and more efficient.
TRENDS:
• The Affordable Health Care Act (ACA) will likely be taken up in the next
Congress, so uncertainty of the law will once again be in the news.
• Hospital beds per 1,000 people slowly trending downward.
• According to Health Facilities Management, “Ambulatory care accounts
for approximately one-third of health care spending in the United States,
slightly more than inpatient care, according to the U.S. Department of
Health & Human Services’ Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality.”
• The new model for hospitals is the medical center with a cluster of
offices including beds which will deliver more of a patient’s needs.
• Heath care industry still not prepared for increased number of insured.
• Trend toward rebuilding existing facilities to use modern hospital
design and allow for greater use of technology.
• Nontraditional funding sources for private nonprofit facilities.
- Government or government-backed.
- Pension and life insurance companies.
- Private development and equity
Education
FMI is forecasting 3% growth for educational construction during 2015.
One of the biggest hurdles to new construction continues to be state and
local budgets. After taking large cuts during the recession, it has been
a difficult battle to get back to previous levels of spending. For higher
education, increasing tuition will add to already dangerously high levels
of student debt. Some funding is expected to return as states improve
income from tax receipts; but the various financing challenges won’t
easily go away, even as demand rises. This will likely lead to more online
classes and other means of education differing from traditional schooling.
Safety on campus will continue to be a major concern.
TRENDS:
• Significantly less funding from states for K-12 schools.
• Enrollment growth 2.5 million in the next four years.
• New-school designs will be more flexible for changing classrooms and
greater use of natural light.
• Greater attention to reducing energy use and employing green building
technologies.
• Renovation and additions to current school buildings will continue to
grow in comparison to new school projects.
• Greater focus on safe schools as the threat for shootings on campus
continues to rise.
Healthcare Construction Thriving in Northeast
Healthcare real estate (HRE) construction is booming in the Northeastern
United States, according to healthcare real estate data service Revista.
In its regional market report, the HRE data firm said 66 healthcare
construction projects totaling $7.9 billion and 8.9 million square feet were
under way or in late planning in New York, Connecticut and New England.

Improved Project Outcomes through
Innovation and Collaboration
The design and construction of healthcare facilities directly impact clinical results, patient
experience and profitability. Innovative design
and construction plays a critical role in positioning healthcare institutions for long term success.
Many studies have claimed to show that increased
cross-disciplinary collaboration and decision making during the design, pre-construction and construction/assembly phases have a dramatic impact
on project outcomes (time, price etc) and the long
term value delivered by the completed facilities.
This panel session will debate the reality of these
claims and discuss some of the critical considerations and components including: Sustainable and
resilient design; Collaborative project delivery
systems; Lean construction practices; Competitive, open source procurement; Performance incentives and risk sharing.

Curtain Walls for Labs and Medical
Facilities
In addition to satisfying basic performance requirements, curtain walls installed in many health
care and laboratory facilities are often required to
meet more demanding performance requirements
for durability, air and water penetration resistance,
and thermal efficiency. To meet these demands,
additional provisions that are above and beyond
many curtain wall manufacturers’ standard details
are often necessary. The presenters will discuss
glass-and-metal curtain wall technology, including an introduction to “standard” systems and
enhancements recommended for hospital and
laboratory facilities. Case studies and design examples from recent renovation and new construction projects will be highlighted. Results of in-situ
moisture testing and monitoring will be used to
bolster design recommendations.

Reduce Project Durations
and Increase Profits Through
Collaboration
BIM is revolutionizing the AEC Industry with a
surge in BIM adoption from 28 percent in 2007 to
71 percent in 2012 due to business benefits of reduced project duration, increased profits, and reduced rework. While these business benefits are
readily realized when the entire project team is in
one location, these gains are bound when project
teams span across distributed sites. Global file
locking eliminates cross site BIM collaboration issues and enables users to work together like they
were sitting in the same room.

NFPA 285 - Assembly Test of Exterior
Walls with Combustible Components
Changing Energy Codes and increased NFPA 285
material triggers in the Building Code are altering the way many building envelopes are constructed. This course outlines the requirements,
methods, materials and techniques to comply with
the changing exterior wall expectations. The most
common contributing factors to non-compliance
of designs requiring NFPA 285 assembly testing
include a lack of understanding of applicability
of test on exterior wall assemblies vs individual
products; This seminar will also discuss the impact of codes, test parameters and history of NFPA
285, and the definition of what building envelope
components trigger NFPA 285 assembly testing
requirements. All of these elements combine to
demonstrate how to integrate NFPA 285 compliant
assemblies into building envelope systems.

Acoustics and Vibration Concerns
and Solutions from Design through
Constructions
Sound and vibration are an important component
of a successful research or hospital facility. The
FGI guidelines provide design goals for critical
use spaces and even more stringent criteria are
available for sensitive equipment. Appropriate
sound and vibration control are most effectively
incorporated at the design stage as retrofits can
be very expensive. Sound and vibration concerns
do not necessarily end with CDs. Construction
produces vibration which has the potential to affect neighboring buildings, particularly if they
house sensitive equipment. The presentation will
discuss design guidelines and basic noise and vibration control concepts. It will address the special case of MRIs which are affected by vibration
and also produce considerable noise themselves.
A case study will be used to show how isolation
can be incorporated “after the fact”. Construction
vibration will be discussed, specifically how it can
be predicted, mitigated and monitored to protect
adjacent facilities.

Clinical labs have traditionally been squeezed into
leftover spaces in hospital and public health facilities. The clinical/public health lab is a high-volume
testing lab that has unique lab planning issues that
must be incorporated into the facility. Whether
you are preparing to design a new lab or renovate
an existing lab, this is a unique opportunity to
make your operation more efficient and effective.
Find out the issues that need to be addressed for
new clinical labs: from process mapping to proper
staffing to flexibility to future automation, a wellplanned lab can help you increase specimen volume and decrease turn-around time.
intensity and frequency of natural and man-made
disasters. As a consequence, many organizations
are evaluating how best to ready their facilities
to ensure continuity of healthcare services and to
safeguard long-term research projects when disaster strikes. Building resiliency strategies, however,
need to address far more than how building materials and systems will withstand extreme weather
events, earthquakes, and power outages. The decision making framework must also encompass the
methodology used to assess vulnerability; internal procedures for disaster response; the regulatory environment; insurance issues; benefit/cost
analysis; prioritization of adaptation measures;
and basic engineering. This session will highlight
strategies for disaster proofing healthcare and
research/teaching facilities. Presenters will also
discuss best practices and lessons learned from
recent facility resiliency upgrades and the disasters that are driving decision making.

How Clean Is Clean When
Decontaminating Med/Ed Facilities?
The nature of medical and education facilities is
their operations can leave chemical and biological
residues in the work space and building systems
(i.e. HVAC, hoods, plumbing, and surfaces). Moreover, the use of these spaces can change drastically, going from a treatment room or laboratory to
an office or daycare. But is area safe for these new
uses? Is it safe for construction workers? Does demolition material go in the trash or require special
handling? This session will answer these questions
and more, and review current industry practices to
properly assess and decontaminate medical and
education facilities such as buildings used for
medical examination, treatment, and laboratory
research and development and testing. It will also
review current expectation by building owners.
This phase of work should be completed before
the hammers start swinging.

Commissioning is critical to the success of building
projects and operations. As a third-party review,
commissioning ensures a building’s systems run
efficiently, in the most energy efficient manner
possible and successfully meet their operational
needs and occupants’ requirements. It applies to
all building types, as today’s systems and controls
continue to become more intricate and integrated.
Our presentation reviews challenges for building
owners who design and operate buildings and provides information on the value of commissioning.
The presentation also explains how to hire a commissioning agent and successfully integrate commissioning into every building project. Lastly, we
will discuss the importance of how commissioning
can focus on the use of energy efficient mechanical equipment, lighting and other related controls
as a way of obtaining energy cost savings for the
owner and reducing energy waste.
Green roofs and plaza decks are gaining increased
usage. This interest is due to declining green space
and the ability of such systems to reduce storm
water runoff, eliminating the need for retention
basins. Improved energy savings, storm water retention, and aesthetic benefits are driving forces
behind the growth of green roofs. Significant improvements in the performance of different components including roof repellents, drainage layers,
waterproofing membranes, and lightweight growing media and plants have resulted in anticipated
service lives of 40 plus years. This presentation
will address a variety of sub-grade waterproofing
systems including positive and negative side waterproofing, plaza deck assemblies, and green roof
technology. We will analyze the following types of
materials including pre-manufactured membranes
(e.g. thermoplastics, modified bitumens, bentonite
panels), spray-on or brush-applied coatings, and
expandable and/or injectable waterstops. We will
focus on design concepts, detailing, surface preparations, application methods, and troubleshooting
for typical below-grade waterproofing problems.

Clinical Laboratories in an Academic
Medical Environment
Today’s academic clinical laboratories are faced
with a variety of potentially competing space and
protocol requirements. From the pressures of a
high-throughput processing lab to the interactive
nature of a learning lab, the resulting planning
drivers may vary. Occasionally, these drivers are
competing and sometimes they can be misunderstood by each of the laboratory constituencies.
The clinical mission sets the stage for planning
the processing lab and the academic mission suggests more collaborative activities that need to
be considered for a successful project. This session will help all constituencies” from the Owner’s
facilities team to the clinical leadership to the
academic medical leadership, and finally to the
laboratory planning professionals” understand
the collective drivers of their lab. Case studies
include a large public county medical system, a
public-private partnership in a large government
healthcare system and a private academic medical
institution. Whether the academic medical system
is preparing to renovate an existing facility or if
they are planning to build a new clinical lab, they
can achieve a better result if they understand and
integrate the needs of a healthcare lab processing
environment with the goals of the academic training mission.

Multi-functional Simulation Spaces
at Boston Children’s Hospital
Hospital-based simulation centers are typically
challenged with a lack of available space. The
solution is to maximize every space for multiple
simulation opportunities. Faced with a similar
situation at Boston Children’s Hospital, a new
Simulation Center was programmed and designed
emphasizing flexible, multi-purpose spaces, with
each space supporting 2 to 3 functions. The new
Center features 3 labs, each designed for multiple
simulation settings and training opportunities to
accommodate task trainers, human patient simulators, standardized patients, and hybrids. This is
accomplished by carefully superimposing multiple healthcare environments within each space.
In addition, the Center is designed to promote
multi-room and multi-disciplinary training within
and between simulated departments, as well as
integrating the SIM Engineering Core to support
ultrahigh fidelity through 3D printing. The design
includes support spaces that promote a variety
of simulation opportunities: acute care and outpatient scenarios across multiple rooms, patient
transport, and group work sessions and conferencing.

Beyond Code - How Program
Administrators Support Energy
Savings for High Performance New
Construction
The Program Administrators (utilities) of Massachusetts provide technical support and financial
incentives for high performance new construction projects. New construction solutions support
design teams (architects/engineers), property
owners and developers in their pursuit of energy
savings and high performing buildings. Come
learn in this session how financial incentives can
lower the initial investment for higher-efficiency
systems, and get an introduction to the resources
and guidance designed to help lower building operating costs while ensuring occupant comfort. A
new incentive structure for both the owner and
the design teams will be discussed, along with the
process to achieve these supports and a review of
relevant case studies of recent high performing
buildings.

NYPH Skills Acquisition & Innovation
Laboratory- An Educational
Healthcare Facility for the 21st
Century
With rapid advancements in the field of medicine and surgery, there is a pressing need to keep
healthcare professionals on top of the most current medical standards and procedures. Medical
simulation centers are on the forefront of health
care provider education, supplementing traditional pedagogical aims with high-tech capabilities.
These state-of-the-art facilities give surgeons of
all skill levels the opportunity to renew their respective knowledge bases and sharpen critical
skills before operative procedures or clinical rotations. New York Presbyterian Hospital’s Skills
Acquisition & Innovation Laboratory recreates a
real-life medical environment and features recording capability throughout, allowing users to gain
beneficial insights by closely analyzing simulated
medical scenarios. ORs containing full bodied
high-tech mannequins, inanimate tissue models,
and the most advanced minimally invasive surgery
and technological equipment are also among the
available resources. This presentation will discuss
SAIL’s design process, the challenges posed, and
the takeaways from designing a medical simulation center within an existing facility.

Achieving Long-Term Roof Systems
Service Life - Sustainable Through
Innovative Design
The discussion on sustainability is now over a
decade long. How this concept relates to roof
systems is unique in that the variety of potential
solutions is almost endless. Sustainability
is more than roof color or about energy; it is
about the cohesive performance of all the roof
system components as one. If one accepts the
conclusion of the CIB/RILEM Joint Committee on
Sustainable Low Slope Roofing, that the essence
of sustainability is “Long-Term Service Life”,
then designers must move beyond current fads
and use empirical experience and innovative
methods to achieve sustainable roof systems. This
presentation will present two roof system design
case studies in which the author called upon his 25
years of roof system design experience, empirical
in-field service performance, and architectural
background to design roof systems whose longterm service life expectations are 50 plus years.
Design concepts, details and photographs from
these projects will be presented.

A Critical Infection Prevention
Tool:Ultra Violet Germicidal
Irradiation in Hospital HVAC
Hospital Acquired Infections (HAIs) constitute a
major health threat impacting millions of people
globally, and increase patient morbidity and mortality with an economic impact of up to $45 billion in the US alone. Gram negative bacteria are
of particular concern, are responsible for more
than 30% of all HAIs and are becoming increasingly multi-drug resistant. These universal health
concerns surrounding HAIs have driven organizations such as ASHRAE to investigate reservoirs of
pathogenic microorganisms and the role of the
HVAC in the amplification and transmission of
HAIs. (ASHRAE HVAC Design Manual for Hospitals
and Clinics). The objective of this presentation is
to demonstrate the role of HVAC systems serving
hospital critical patient care areas, as potential
environmental reservoirs for opportunistic bacteria attributed to Hospital Acquired Infections.
The presentation presents data from prospective
interventional pre and post multi-center trials. A
total of thirteen HVAC systems were sampled for
microbial loads. The hospitals were located in New
York (1), Michigan (1), Pennsylvania (2) and Washington, DC (2). The presentation demonstrates

Planning Hospital-based Simulation
Centers with Limited Available Space
When planning clinical simulation centers, a reoccurring dilemma is often debated, “Location vs.
Size.” Ideally, a training center would be located at
the heart of any Medical Center to allow easy access for individuals and multi-disciplinary teams.
However, centralized space is preserved for patient care and critical support areas. This leads the
discussion to comparing two alternatives; minimal
available on-campus space often in an older portion of the Hospital, or an abundance of space
just a few miles down the road. Then the debate
begins: a full program in a new building vs. a reduced program in or adjacent to the hospital? To
promote high utilization, proximity trumps space
every time. So now you have a great location,
but with limited space. How do you maximize the
square footage without sacrificing program, yet
still providing ideal circulation for learners, staff,
and standardized patients?

Designing A Road to Recovery
Imagine that you have suffered an injury and
instead of rehabilitating indoors, you are
outside along Boston’s waterfront, walking along
pathways, shooting hoops, sinking a hole in one,
gardening, fishing, or kayaking, the things you
love to do that, in turn, lead to successful recovery.
This is what the Therapy Trail and Garden at the
new Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital offers
to its patients. The inclusive design for the new
facility and grounds utilizes the total campus
as a tool for rehabilitation in Spaulding’s areas
of expertise: amputee and vascular disease,
brain injury, stroke, musculoskeletal, burn, and
spinal cord injury. Copley Wolff Design Group
has developed a therapeutic setting for both the
physical and emotional sides of healing. We will
talk about the process of working with multiple
groups to determine the needs of the patients;
how hospitals can extend rehabilitation and
therapeutic practices outside the hospital; and the
ways to encourage inclusiveness and awareness
through community interaction.

Zero Net Energy Buildings in
Massachusetts
Bringing public leadership to high-performance
design, the new Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife Field Headquarters is one of three
projects selected to become the first public sector
zero net energy buildings in the Commonwealth,
as envisioned by the Governor’s Zero Net Energy
Task Force. As an exemplar, it will help the Commonwealth develop standard practices and specifications for achieving high performance building.
Multiple state agencies worked together to develop the vision for this project, setting the bar for
this ambitious design. Design for zero net begins
with careful use of the site. Loads are driven down
through a carefully detailed building envelope
and state- of- the-art, efficient mechanical systems design, and energy use will be offset with a
rooftop photovoltaic array, producing as much energy as the building uses annually. Construction of
the project required dedication to key design aspects, as well as testing and commissioning. With
the building now completed, achieving the goal of
zero net energy will rely largely on how the facility
is used and operated.

Designing Air and Vapor Barriers
Many existing buildings were constructed before
current energy and building codes required a
continuous air and vapor barrier, and exterior
insulation. To improve the thermal performance
and interior air quality of these facilities, many
building owners are looking to upgrade their
existing infrastructure. The presenter recently
completed evaluations of several existing higher
education facilities with a focus on improving the
exterior building enclosures. The presentation
will provide an in-depth examination of design
considerations, with a focus on addressing ongoing
air and moisture infiltration caused by the lack of
continuous air barriers and thermal insulation.
The presentation will discuss unique solutions to
improve the overall building performances and
aesthetics, and coordinate construction in an
occupied facility. Attendees can expect to learn
the steps that can be performed at their own
facilities to improve building performance.

Adaptive Reuse and Ambulatory
Surgery Center Design
What do a roller rink and a supermarket have in
common? As healthcare grows more decentralized,
commercial spaces like these are being adapted
for ambulatory care. That has been the case for
Merritt Healthcare in its series of ambulatory surgery centers in Connecticut. In each instance they
define the process; stick to the schedule; and use
materials and resources strategically. Find the
right site, with good access and attractive lease
terms, and determine whether the building can
support the program. If operational and clinical
numbers align with the proposed plan, the package can be presented to stakeholders. In construction, be ready to deal with the unexpected , the
price of fitting an ASC in an existing building. How
can ASCs use design to convey quality while keeping to a budget? Paying attention to the patient’s
arrival experience helps reinforce quality and the
center’s brand.

health and education, the space was designed to
orchestrate interactions between teachers, students and healthcare providers. The center has
17% shared space which allows for a highly interpersonal “bump rate”; innovative and carefully
thought-out design has enhanced students’ exposure of the myriad opportunities in the healthcare
professions, a field which makes up 18% of all
Boston-area jobs. The discussion will focus on how

Planning for the Cycles of Change in
Neonatal Care
The need for Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS)
care has steadily increased at some children’s hospitals. What goes into planning a NAS unit and
for its post-NAS use? East Tennessee Children’s
Hospital required a dedicated unit to respond to a
rise in NAS occurrences in its planned expansion/
renovation. Notable differences between NICU
and NAS populations made a shared platform difficult: NAS babies have different medication and
equipment needs and withdrawal symptoms that
are highly disruptive to NICU patients. Parent population requirements also differ greatly. Because
of its complexity, planners located the NICU in the
new building, siting the NAS unit in the existing
building. Because it is anticipated that increased
prenatal education and prescription control will
help reduce the need for NAS care within five
years, the unit is designed so all or part of it can be
easily repurposed.

MED-ED Facilities also offers you the opportunity to network with
current and prospective clients, colleagues, schoolmates and friends
at workshops, in the exhibit area, and in lounges throughout the hotel.
Invite your clients to join you for workshops and show them exhibits
that might enrich their projects.
Through a series of case studies, this presentation will demonstrate how
schools districts across the US have shown leadership in their choice of
structural material and imagination in their building designs to achieve
both performance and cost objectives. The choice of materials can have a
considerable impact on a school’s construction costs, energy efficiency,
acoustic performance, aesthetic appeal and occupant environmentwhich can in turn dramatically influence the success of students.
This highly pictorial presentation will showcase the range of design
possibilities and benefits associated with wood frame schools.
Design your own schedule
• Understand how the use of wood-frame construction saved $2.7 million
for the new El Dorado High School in Arkansas.
You could easily fill both days with activities at MED-ED Facilities…but
you don’t have to. The schedule is designed to accommodate individual
time commitments.
• Learn how the Bethel School District in Washington State achieves both
upfront cost savings and long-term energy savings through the use of
wood framing.
A half-day at MED-ED Facilities may include a morning of workshops,
lunch with a client and time on the exhibit floor. A day-trip might
include a few workshops, a visit to the exhibit hall, a late afternoon
cocktail reception and a quick trip home. Out-of-towners might wake
up at the Seaport Hotel (just four minutes from Logan International
Airport) and stroll across the street to the World Trade Center to attend
workshops and browse the exhibit floor.
• Explain architectural design techniques used to improve acoustic
performance in exposed heavy timber constructed roof applications.
Networking opportunities
Describe why student performance can be improved by providing an
occupant environment with visual wood elements. Information from
various studies will be provided to assist with understanding the
physiology and psychology associated with visual aspects of occupant
environment.
