FULLERTON, CA.—July 26, 2012—The St. Jude Medical Center patient tower project recently reached a major construction milestone when iron workers secured the final structural steel beam atop the four-level structure.
Located on the northern side of the existing medical campus at Bastanchury Road and Harbor Boulevard, the $285.4 million hospital tower project is 35% complete and three days ahead of schedule. Construction began on the project in September 2011.
The design/build team of McCarthy Building Companies and TAYLOR are working with Petra-ICS (Formerly St. Joseph Health System) to build the project which includes a new patient tower, central utility plant and parking structure.
Over the two month long steel erection phase, iron workers from Schuff Steel erected approximately 2,650 tons of structural steel using a 300 ton lattice boom truck crane with a reach of 250 feet.
