Introduction:

The project involved the construction new Pathology laboratory and head office for Western Diagnostic Pathology. The project was carried out in two parts with the base build portion incorporating all main plant and equipment and fitout incorporating the specific systems serving the specific operational requirements.

The Building consisted of a two storey office and administration building served by Daikin VRV ducted air conditioning equipment and Comms room complete with duty and standby CRAC units. The laboratory is served by Chilled water AHU’s delivering air to the laboratory space via VAV boxes. Eight coolrooms were constructed on site as part of the fitout portion of works. Industrial gases were installed to reticulate out to work benches.
An isolation room complete with stand alone AHU served via HEPA filtration was constructed for high risk purpose.

Project Description:
  • Chilled and Heating Water system served by Two (2) Trane Air Cooled Chillers.
  • Heating water system provided via two (2) condensing water boilers.
  • Air handling unit air conditioning systems serving the laboratory spaces.
  • VRV air conditioning systems serving the offices.
  • High level fans serving the warehouse/workshop areas.
  • Coolrooms and associated equipment installed for storage.
  • Medical gas piping and plant.
Technical Challenges:

The project encountered coordination challenges within the laboratory. The main challenge was to ensure maintainable equipment was accessible via ladder from below despite abundance of ceiling space available for services.
