The University of Washington is investing heavily in its medical education program, and the new University of Washington Health Sciences Education Building is a state-of-the-art facility that will house the UW’s dentistry, medicine, nursing, pharmacy, public health, and social work programs. The unique programming brings together different uses including lab, classroom, library, student lounge, study and wellness spaces. These different uses create different layouts and the associated structural challenges. Jessica Westermeyer P.E., S.E., Associate at KPFF, was the project manager for the UW Health Sciences Education Building and will share some of those structural challenges that her team faced.
