Daart Engineering Company will begin working on campus Monday night, Sept. 24, to reroute fire safety lines at Schuman Pavilion. The work will continue nightly, from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m., starting Sept. 24 and ending on the evening of Oct. 5.
The majority of activity will occur outside Schuman Pavilion’s front entrance at the patient drop-off turnaround necessitating temporary sidewalk removal. These walkways will be covered with steel plates during daytime to minimize impact for pedestrians and valet services, and new concrete sidewalks will be poured after the construction.
A portion of the work will also take place in the southeast stairwell of Schuman Pavilion.
All construction activities have been coordinated with Environmental Health & Safety, Epidemiology, Facilities Management, Security Services and Hospitality Services. Interim Life Safety Measures in the Medical Center and additional fire watch will be enacted as needed.
Rerouting of the Schuman Pavilion fire lines will accommodate new construction to support building the new hospital complex.
