Geisinger Health System - New Administrative Office Building

This new Administrative Office Building is a 94,000 sf steel frame and composite panel clad building.  It is three stories tall and provides “back office” administrative space for the Geisinger Health System. Its initial occupancy was 450+ personnel situated in an “open” office plan. It was designed to accommodate an additional expansion to 120,000 sf. As well, the design has beenaccomplished using sustainable principals to yield LEED Certification in accordance with the standards developed by the United States Green Building Council.

Alexander developed a Building Information Model of the project using Revit software. The design professional provided a basic architectural model that was enhanced by Alexander’s Virtual Construction Coordinators into a fully integrated information model including a full structural system and a full Mechanical/Electrical/Plumbing (MEP) system. This was possible through the use of Autodesk’s Revit Structure and Revit MEP platforms.

The model was turned over to our client as part of the as-built documents submittal. This gives the owner a new and unique method to be able to view the completed building without the need for 2D paper drawings.
