Phase IV Expansion and Remodel Project at John Muir Medical Center – Walnut Creek Campus. The 400,000 square-foot expansion added a new, five-story tower, underground loading dock and a Central Utility Plant to the medical center’s Walnut Creek campus. The new tower is a steel-braced frame with concrete slab over metal deck. The main lobby features a cast in place concrete water feature rotunda. The hospital also features several gardens with architectural concrete at various roof levels.
Upon completion this will be a 740,000 sqft facility including a 30,000 sqft utility plant, a surface parking lot for up to 2,100 vehicles, and 264-bed acute-care medical center. In addition to performing all of the structural concrete work on the project, Conco belted and placed more than 18,000 tons of aggregate underslab material.

When 32 anchor rods failed on the new Bay Bridge in San Francisco, Conco was retained to perform the repairs. The anchor rods had been used to secure the steel bridge deck framing to a concrete crossbeam support at the east end of the pier “E2″. Conco assisted on a permanent fix that involved a complex series of steel saddles and post-tensioned jacket walls that were used to provide the required clamping force to secure the bridge deck framing to the E2 crossbeam.

Conco is responsible for the extensive concrete work. The project consists of slabs in excess of 2,000,000 square feet and will use more than 65,000 cubic yards of concrete.
