Orange Park Medical Center Vertical Expansion Field Testing

Recon Independent Assessments is providing field testing of installed hurricane impact resistant windows and curtain wall on the vertical expansion project at Orange Park Medical Center.

As a Qualified Third Party Testing Agency, Recon inspects and tests newly installed fenestration and glazing to ensure that water penetration resistance is achieved.  The critical joints between the glazing and fenestration to the surrounding construction is key to ensuring a watertight building envelope.  Using test methods contained within ASTM E 1105 provides a measure of confidence to the contractor and owner that the installers have used best practices and have successfully completed their scope of work.

Barton Malow starts $75M hospital project - Orlando Business Journal

Barton Malow starts $75M hospital project - Orlando Business Journal


Expansion Project Will Require Field Testing for Water Penetration



Tampa construction projects like the one being completed by Barton Malow are subjected to higher winds and large volumes of wind driven rain from time to time. The critical union of the building's structure and the windows are of the highest importance to ensure a healthful and sustainable environment for staff and patients.

The key to the project's success lies in testing. Making sure it's right from the beginning is the only way to deliver a high quality moisture intrusion free building.

For a project of this size, a mock-up of the installed system makes the most sense. Once completed, it can easily be field tested to verify that the joining of the two components within the building envelope works. From that point, it's a matter of replication of the process and staying true to attention to detail. Periodic testing throughout the project at 30 - 60 and 100 % of completion should help to keep the team focused and accountable.

Recon Independent Assessments provides complete Field Testing Services for Installed Fenestration per AAMA & ASTM Field Testing Standards and Procedures.

While most of our projects come in through referrals, feel free to contact us today.
