Proposal

Depth Work: Structural

The focus of this thesis project will be to investigate the structural design of both the current building and Outpatient Addition if the site layout called for those four stories to be placed on top of Memorial Sloan-Kettering instead of to its north side.

Breadth #1: Construction Management

Both a detailed cost analysis and schedule estimate will be completed using R.S. Means. These results will be compared to the cost and schedule of MSK's first four floors.

Breadth #2: MEP Redesign

Memorial Sloan-Kettering's MEP system must be redesigned in order to support the five-story addition. The mechanical equipment located on the roof will have be moved elsewhere in the building to make room for the vertical expansion. Furthermore, it must be determined where the addition's MEP equipment will be located in reference to the existing system.
