PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Over 120,000 sq. ft. of WrapShield SA Self-Adhered was installed on the Methodist University of Tennessee Hospital in Memphis, TN.
As the ambitious project utilized multiple substrates and cladding types—including brick, stucco, and curtain wall—an advanced and versatile building envelope solution was necessary. WrapShield SA’s innovative pressure-sensitive adhesive bonded directly to all the substrate materials and allowed seamless one-pass installation with no down time.
Despite the lengthy phase-construction, no additional specialized equipment mobilization was needed, as WrapShield SA can be exposed for up to six months prior to cladding installation.
The $275 million development is expected to be completed by fall of 2019 and will not affect day-to-day hospital operations.
