Callidus Engineering Mechanical EIT, Luke Reist recently travelled from Ontario to Winnipeg as construction advances on the Health Sciences Centre Nuclear Medicine CT Renewal. The visit brought him into a complex, multi-phase renovation supporting new SPECT and SPECT-CT imaging equipment.
Our mechanical and electrical design has to do more than make room for new equipment. The work is sequenced so one scanning room can remain operational while another is renewed, with infection-control requirements, shutdowns and existing hospital systems shaping construction.
On site, Luke worked with the mechanical, electrical and controls trades to review progress and tackle the realities hidden above the ceiling. Ductwork, sprinkler piping, conduit and junction boxes compete for limited space, making coordination, equipment access and future maintenance critical parts of the job.
It is detailed work in a demanding environment, and we are proud to see it taking shape. Each phase brings HSC closer to renewed nuclear medicine spaces designed to support continued diagnostic imaging in Winnipeg.
