UEB Builders tilt concrete time lapse - West Valley Hospital Freestanding Emergency Department

A big thank you to UEB Project Manager Dave Gigger and Superintendent Jay Boyse.  They have been pulling out all the stops in fast-tracking construction of the new Freestanding Emergency Department for Abrazo’s West Valley Hospital, scheduled to open in the 2nd quarter of 2010.  As the time lapse video shows, the tilt panels were erected in one day, only 5 days after the slabs were cast on grade.  Dave Gigger explains that “due to an ideal mix design and optimal curing conditions, the testing lab confirmed the tilt panels had achieved over 75% of design strength after only the third day."  The developer of the facility is La Salle and the operator is Vanguard’s West Valley Hospital.
