UVa added a multi-story, modular, LEED Certified building next to its Medical Center to serve as temporary office space for Primary Care Center employees.

2RW’s services included:
- Site investigations to discover, verify, and evaluate existing conditions related to utility services for the Annex. Following the investigations, we provided:
- Sustainable MEP/FP design for heat pumps, electrical systems, plumbing, fire sprinklers, and carbon dioxide sensing.
- Design and specifications for building automation system.
Results
The University chose a modular solution for this structure with estimated usage of 10 to 15 years, but the product is of such high quality it will likely remain as a permanent structure.
