Hyperbaric Chamber Module

Additional Info

Award Winner : United Rentals - Storage & Office Solutions

Architectural Excellence : This single wide custom modular building is currently providing extra space for a growing hospital. The exterior of the building blends in with existing structures. To accommodate two hyperbaric oxygen chambers, there is a 140 lb floor load and it is set low to the ground. In addition to the room that holds the chambers, the unit houses one ADA compliant restroom and a technician's office.

Cost Energy Effectiveness : The cost of this building is 1/3 less than that of a stick-built building at the same location. Because of its overall size and low to the ground installation, the unit is easily relocatable and, therefore, more cost-effective as the hospital continues to grow and expand.
