Planning and Value Engineering for Health Facilities
The planning phase of laboratory design is the most important step in ensuring the site of the laboratory has enough floor space for the intended laboratory activities. In this project which was accomplished last 2020, AccelAlliance Construction Management Services Corp. undertook the comprehensive process of design, planning and construction management to ensure the occupants’ safety and welfare.
Covid Laboratory
When building a new laboratory, or the contractor, construction manager, and the owner of the laboratory must determine how to manage biological and chemical hazards by the implementation of risk control strategies; which should then drive the planning and design of the facility. Before we began the design process of this project in Tagum last 2020, a thorough risk assessment was executed to identify the hazards and decide the risk control measures that need to be incorporated into the design. A needs assessment was also performed to define any other laboratory design features required to reduce the risks or facilitate needed functions.
