The new Oakville Hospital will be a state-of-the-art facility which will include a full range of health services, such as complex continuing care, acute care, and rehabilitation programs. The new hospital will be approximately a 1.5 million sq. ft. facility and have capacity for 457 inpatient beds. The design and construction of the new hospital will adhere to the principle of the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED). The building team goal is to achieve a LEED Silver Certification.
Kelson mechanical highlights:
The new Oakville hospital will consist of 3 buildings; Block A (including a 6 story parking garage), Block C & Block D all interconnect mechanically by a common central utility plant (CUP) on 9th floor of Block D. The mechanical design of the new Oakville hospital will adhere to the principles of LEED, which will highlight mechanical design concepts such as highly efficient plumbing fixtures for efficient use of water, and design elements that respond to climate conditions which will lead to efficient use of energy.
