Maine Medical Center recently completed a two-story addition project to the Coulombe Family Tower on their main campus in Portland, ME. The project included the addition of 64 new single patient bedrooms dedicated to surgical and medical oncology care. The project also included the addition of two new helipads on the roof of the vertical addition. Code Red Consultants was retained directly by Maine Medical Center to serve as an independent third-party inspector during construction. CRC was responsible for performing firestopping special inspections, smoke control special inspections, fire door inspections, and field review of the overall life safety compliance of the construction of fire and smoke rated walls, means of egress, and other key life safety and fire protection features in accordance with the Maine Uniform Building Code, Rules of the Maine State Fire Marshal, and NFPA 101, the Life Safety Code as adopted by the Joint Commission and Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Code Red Consultants worked closely with owner and design team, which consisted of Maine Medical Center, Colliers International, Perkins & Will, and Turner Construction to help ensure that the construction was compliant with the applicable codes and standards. In addition to their inspection role, Code Red Consultants also prepared master life safety drawings for Maine Medical Center.
