Harding Hospital - Roof 2 replacement

Project number: OSU-265568
For this project, the Owner will be requesting a Competitive GMP at the time of Request for Proposal as part of the Best Value selection process. The Ohio State University is planning a roof replacement project at Harding Hospital, located at 1670 Upham Drive, Columbus, OH 43210, on campus. The project will replace approximately 5,530 square feet of Roof 2, which has been identified as requiring replacement due to the condition and extensive repair history. The existing roof is an EPDM roof with ballast on a concrete roof deck. The new roof is to be a 60 mil PVC. The scope of work includes ballast removal, roof tear-off, substrate repairs, insulation replacement and addition to bring up to current codes, installation of a new roofing system and coping. Existing rooftop equipment and curbs will be modified as necessary to accommodate updated roof insulation height requirements. The base bid schedule anticipates construction beginning in June 2027. Upon project completion, a comprehensive manufacturer-backed full-system roofing warranty will be provided Harding Hospital houses inpatient and outpatient services dedicated to behavioral health. The project is expected to maintain uninterrupted hospital operations throughout construction. Given the sensitive nature of the hospital environment, careful planning and coordination of site logistics will be essential to minimize disruptions and reduce the impact of construction activities on patients, staff, and visitors. Contractors will be expected to provide thoughtful approaches to sequencing, access, noise mitigation, and overall construction operations to support the continued functioning of the facility. *Roof 2 of Harding Hospital is identified in red. The Program of Requirements (“POR”) will be developed as a part of this project by the Criteria Architect/Engineer, Hasenstab Architects, Inc. All aspects of the project and related issues will be implemented and operated consistent with the Contracting Authority and/or Owner’s policies and procedures.
