Quebec firm to build hospital in the U.S.
BOUCHERVILLE, QC
Murox, a business unit of Canam Group Inc. that offers design-build solutions for high-performance building envelopes, was awarded a contract by Diversified Specialty Institutes for the Buck’s County Oncoplastic Institute project, to be located 15 miles northeast of Philadelphia in Bensalem, Penn.
The contract worth, over $4 million CA, is for the fabrication and installation of wall panels and structural steel components for a facility covering just over 110,600 square feet.
The project consists of a two-story office building and a single-story hospital specialized in the treatment of breast cancer as well as plastic and reconstructive surgery. The wall panels will incorporate many windows, feature numerous architectural details and come complete with a mixed acrylic and thin brick finish, to be factory-installed beginning in late April.
