Community And Green Benefits
The design of the hospital will incorporate natural light in the atrium, energy-efficient windows throughout and sustainable materials wherever possible. The new PECMH will also be the first acute care hospital in North America with an all mass timber structure, setting an industry precedent for healthcare design. Mass timber is a sustainable, engineered, wood-based structural building material that sequesters carbon, unlike emission-intensive conventional structural materials, such as steel and concrete. By integrating sustainable building practices with advanced medical technology, the new hospital aims to reduce its carbon footprint and optimize energy use.
Demonstrating Value
