Camp PendletonContractor: Clark/McCarthy
Year of Completion: 2014
Delivery Method: Design-Assist
Pan-Pacific is proud to be a part of a new hospital overlooking the Pacific Ocean to treat troops, their families and area retirees at Camp Pendleton in San Diego County.
The $451 million complex, which is scheduled to open in January 2014, will be a four-story, 500,000-square-foot hospital just inside the base's main gate off Interstate 5. It is a Design-Build project where Pan-Pacific is involved in the Design of the total Mechanical Package along with partners A.O. Reed & Co. and the Murray Company.
Staffed by more than 2,100 military and civilian health care workers, the new hospital is replacing Navy Regional Medical Center Camp Pendleton, which opened in 1974.
The new hospital will include 54 patient beds, emergency and primary care, specialty care clinics, operating rooms and support spaces.
Kaiser San Diego Medical CenterContractor: Whiting-Turner
Year of Completion: 2016
Delivery Method: Design-Assist
In 2011, construction and renovation began on $150 million the Kaiser San Diego Medical Center project. With its focus on maternal/child area upgrades, Kaiser plans to add private patient rooms, including antepartum and postpartum care, and the neonatal intensive care unit.
Aging and much in need of repair, Kaiser Zion has fully committed to revitalizing its infrastructure. In order to maintain its normal operation and safeguard the required sterile environment, Pan-Pacific and Whiting-Turner have planned a careful schedule that will last over five years to ensure the successful remediation of critical facilities. Pan-Pacific’s contribution to the modernization of the hospital will be comprised of approximately 26 separate OSHPD permits throughout the 392-bed hospital.
Kaiser’s San Diego Medical Center has also been building its reputation. It has recently been recognized as a Baby Friendly Hospital by Baby-Friendly USA Inc., a global program sponsored by the World Health Organization and UNICEF.

Kaiser San LeandroContractor: Rudolph & Sletten
Year of Completion: 2013
Delivery Method: Design-Assist
Big things are in the works in San Leandro – the largest construction project to take place in the city of San Leandro – a new 434,000 square-foot Kaiser Hospital, Central Utility Plant and Hospital Support Building set to open in early 2013.
Based on our success at the Kaiser template hospital in Anaheim, Pan-Pacific was asked to participate on the Design-Assist team for the Hospital Support Building. With a total mechanical contract of over $10 million, this 275,000 square foot building will handle the administration for the hospital along with some special procedure rooms and exam rooms.
Kaiser Oakland SMOBContractor: McCarthy
Year of Completion: 2014
Delivery Method: Design-Assist
The Special Medical Office Building is part of a three-phase improvement plan at the large Kaiser Oakland campus. Part of the second phase of the project, the four-story Specialty Medical Office Building includes 99 medical provider offices, six outpatient operating rooms and seven outpatient procedure rooms. The SMOB also houses a kitchen and cafeteria.
We are pleased to be on an excellent McCarthy-led Design-Assist team for the project which is expected to be completed in early 2014. Pan-Pacific’s contract amount is $6.2 million.
Kaiser Redwood City Hospital and CUPContractor: Rudolph and Sletten
Year of Completion: 2014
Delivery Method: Design-Assist
Kaiser Hospital in Redwood City is a replacement project for the current hospital. The new hospital will be 280,000 square feet (149 beds) tiered in height from two to seven stories.
The hospital's Central Utility Plant (CUP) will be 16,000 square feet and two stories high containing three chillers, three boilers, a Thermal Fluid Heating Skid and three cooling towers
Pan-Pacific is on the Design-Assist team for the total construction which is to be completed in 2014. For the CUP, Pan-Pacific is performing both the mechanical and plumbing portion. Our total contract is approximately $32 million.
CHOC Children's HospitalContractor: McCarthy
Year of Completion: 2013
Delivery Method: Design-Assist
In order to better accommodate the growing needs of the community’s children and to become nationally recognized as a premier children’s hospital, CHOC is adding a $600 million state-of-the-art patient care tower set to open on the main campus in 2013.
When completed, the new CHOC Children’s Hospital will feature pediatric surgical suites and related services, emergency, laboratory, pathology, imaging and radiology services, as well as private rooms, a dynamic and family-friendly lobby, inviting outdoor gardens, a café and more.
Pan-Pacific is utilizing Building Information Modeling (BIM) and 5D coordination – 3D design tied to the schedule (4D) and cost projections (5D) – to assist design and coordination on a busy, operating campus minimizing the impact of the construction process. These planning efforts will ultimately lead to less space required and less manpower utilized on the site. Our total mechanical package exceeds $80 million.
Cottage HospitalContractor: McCarthy
Year of Completion: 2011
Delivery Method: Design-Assist
The addition to the Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital is a new three-story patient tower with an attached Diagnostic and Treatment Center. The hospital’s healing environment features natural light, increased green space and environmentally sensitive elements.
The hospital features 337 spacious private rooms, numerous meditation areas and gardens, including a “River of Life” flowing through the central gardens. This addition tripled the capacity in the Emergency Department, included air ambulance services and consolidated pediatric services in Cottage Children’s Hospital, including a Pediatric Multi-Specialty Clinic.
Pan-Pacific’s Design-Assist services were able to save nearly $1 million through our value analysis process and constructability reviews which allowed certain systems to be routed more effectively. The project was detailed and fully coordinated in 3D CAD which allowed us to develop our prefabrication drawings reducing field labor costs. We also utilized 3D CAD to establish layout for our Trimble unit which uses x and y coordinates to designate sleeve and insert points.
Kaiser Ontario Vineyard Medical CenterContractor: Whiting-Turner
Year of Completion: 2011
Delivery Method: Design-Assist
Located on a 28-acre, master-planned campus, Kaiser Permanente's Ontario Vineyard Medical Center includes a medical office building, a new central plant and IT building, a surgery center, a hospital support building and onsite and offsite developments including street improvements.
The campus includes a four-story medical office building over a basement level radiation therapy center which houses linear accelerators, a CT scan machine and a Ximatron.
This Design-Assist project required extensive use of 3D/BIM and NavisWorks for coordination and graphic representation of conflicts, drastically reducing the amount of time required to coordinate an otherwise complicated installation. The virtual reality of this process enabled us to prefabricate water, waste and vent, storm drain and medical gas piping off site. Using the Trimble Unit, which gets its input directly from these coordination drawings, allowed us to employ laser designation of deck inserts ensuring pinpoint accuracy.
Contractor: Hensel Phelps Construction Co.
Year of Completion: 2012
Delivery Method: Design-Assist
Kaiser Foundation Hospital Anaheim is one of several Kaiser Template Hospitals in California. This project includes a 434,000 square-foot, six-story hospital housing 262 beds with a partial basement. The adjacent hospital support building is housed in a 177,000 square-foot, six-story structure and a three-story, 31,800 square-foot central utility plant. Pan-Pacific was also responsible for the wet and dry site utilities.
An innovative feature of this Design-Assist project was that the major trades collaborated to model their disciplines. In addition to standard MEP modeling, we also coordinated in-wall systems including stud layout. This enabled all trades to prefabricate and ship to the jobsite ready-to-install materials. Additionally these trades used the same Trimble Unit to ensure that all layout of imbeds, wall tracks and hangers were from an identical device. The end result being the precision and accuracy of the model translated to installation. The team benefit was gaining nearly a month per floor on the construction schedule.
Pan-Pacific’s contract amount was approximately $50 million.
