The Folsom Ranch Advanced Ambulatory Care Center is a critical healthcare addition to the community, offering a range of essential services including an outpatient surgery center, a laboratory, and telehealth facilities. This four-story medical office building was designed to provide a modern, welcoming environment for patients while maintaining the high-performance standards required by
By utilizing a prefabricated exterior, the project team achieved a sophisticated architectural aesthetic that distinguishes the facility within the Folsom Ranch development. The variety of textures and finishes ensures a visually dynamic structure that remains durable and low-maintenance for the long term.
Facade Project Details
É«ÓûÍõ³¯ manufactured and installed 24,384 square feet of Architectural Precast Concrete (APC) for the facility. Our scope was central to the building’s visual identity, featuring a complex mix of colors and textures that highlight the versatility of precast systems.
Key project specifications include:
-
Custom Architectural Finishes: The facade features four distinct finishes, including two different colors and multiple levels of sandblast, to create depth and visual interest.
-
Textural Detail: We utilized a specialized formliner to provide unique patterns and textures to the panels, enhancing the building’s ground-floor presence.
-
Strategic Panel Design: The design incorporates APC wall panels at the ground floor for a resilient, high-quality pedestrian experience, transitioning to large spandrels on the upper three floors to complete the building envelope.
-
Prefabricated Quality: Shifting the production of these complex finishes to our off-site facility allowed for meticulous quality control and consistent results that are difficult to replicate with traditional on-site construction.
