Virtual Design & Construction Report Out:
3-D Model of the Hospital
I
n an open and collaborative process, 40 companies have come together to build and model the 12‐story Van Ness and Geary Campus (VNGC) hospital. One of the unique aspects of the hospital is that it has been fully modeled prior to con‐
struction taking place. Inside this issue
Virtual Design & Construc on Report Out Model vs. Installed system 1 2‐3 The process of creating a three‐dimensional (3‐D) model of the hospital took over two years. Installed systems have been constructed within 1/8th of an inch of the model. This is a truly phenomenal feat considering that the square footage of the hospital is close to a million square feet. The model has allowed trade partners to integrate systems together and check for problems that might arise during con‐
struction. Additionally, modeling the hospital has allowed the team to pre‐fabricate elements of the hospital. Pre‐fabrication has helped the project from storing mate‐
rial on site, increased safety, time and ultimately lowered cost. Medical Office Building 4 To better understand the systems and the way each one works an analogy between the building and the body can be made. Structural steel is similar to our skeletons Workforce Development 5 as it provides a base and support for other systems in the building.

Connected to the generators, are the main electrical Van Ness and Geary Campus rooms and electrical system. The electrical rooms carry energy throughout the hos‐

Workforce Development:
Enhancing CityBuild Academy's Curriculum
C
ityBuild Academy offers their students many construction relate trainings like CPR and First aid, OSHA 10, HAZPOWER, Fork lift/Skid Steer and Boom Lift; however, some of the trainings the students receive come from our trade partners on the project. The goal is to enhance CityBuild’s curriculum by provid‐
ing additional hands on training, getting the students excited about different ca‐
reers in the trades and network with the trade partners for the opportunity to get hired. Cycle 23 of CityBuild had trainings by Southland, H&M Fire Protection (H&M), and Custom Engineered Openings (CEO). CEO spoke to students about the glaz‐
ers union and what it is like working as a glazier. The training sparked interest among the students. CEO hired and sponsored five apprentices into the union from Cycle 23. In addition to discussing career pathways and information about the sprinkler fitter’s union, H&M’s training module provided the students with the opportuni‐
ty to work with sprinkler lines, a treader machine and a groover for Vitralic con‐
nectors. Southland’s training was on sheet metal and pipe fitting. At the end of Southland’s training students had created a lunch box made out of sheet metal and pipes. Southland also held a test prep class for student interested in entering the plumbers and pipe fitters union. Community Partnership
