Deaconess – Felstead Road

BFW was proud to partner with Hafer and Deaconess to provide structural engineering services for the latest project for Deaconess which marked a significant milestone in Deaconess’ mission to provide quality healthcare to the west side community of Evansville. 

The Deaconess Clinic Felstead is an impressive 31,500 square foot structure and features:

  • 18 primary care exam rooms
  • 10 pediatric exam rooms 
  • 2 treatment rooms 
  • 2 behavioral health exam rooms 
  • Lab and X-ray facilities for future growth 
  • 8,500 square feet of shell space for future expansion 

 BFW was involved in the decision to use structural steel as the material for this structure.  Based on the architectural design, BFW also determined that steel moment frames would be the best option to provide lateral stability against code required wind and seismic forces.  BFW designed and detailed the steel structural system and the foundations that support the steel structure.
