SPC Helps LifeNet Engineer New Science Building












LifeNet Engineered Science Building         
Virginia Beach, Virginia                                   
   
LifeNet is the nation’s largest nonprofit organ donation agency and tissue banking system. The new 42,000 square foot Science Building is a research facility and is the second building on the LifeNet campus. Sinclair Pratt Cameron, P.C. designed the headquarters building which was completed in 2006. The research facility will focus on the science of developing regenerative medical products.
 
The structural steel framed building combines two story and double height interior spaces with a dramatic exterior curtain wall. The building is founded on a system of shallow spread footings. This level of project is typical of the work Sinclair Pratt Cameron, P.C. has accomplished throughout its 27 year history in both design-build and partnering with contractors to create successful buildings for their clients.
