Veidekke ASA: Signed contract for health building in Stjørdal

Today Veidekke has signed a contract with Stjørdal municipality to build a new

health building 10.000 m2 in size, which will also serve neighbouring

municipalities. The building has high ambitions for the environment and

sustainability, and will achieve environmental certification. The value of the

contract is NOK 259 million excluding VAT.

"Good and functional health facilities are important to society, and this is an

assignment we are proud to build. Here all parties have taken part in developing

the project from the start, and this interaction makes me confident that we will

deliver a state-of-the-art health facility to the benefit of all inhabitants and

employees," says district manager Ståle Brovold of Veidekke.

The new health building will have a central location in Stjørdal. The building

will comprise four storeys and a basement, and will accommodate functions such

as ambulance service, emergency room, response centre, outpatient clinic,

treatment and rehabilitation wards, canteen and office premises. There will be

extensive use of solar panels, and the goal is to certify the health building in

accordance with energy class A, passive house and the BREEAM NOR standard at the

Very Good level.

"We are very pleased with the collaboration with Veidekke and their consultants,

architects and technical group. The entire project planning group, including the

contracting client and users, have worked hard as one team from day one and

developed the solutions in partnership. We believe that we have found the

solutions we were looking for within our budgetary constraints," says project

manager Geir Arne Tronseth with Stjørdal municipality.

Veidekke won the competition for draft and pre-project in March 2018. From April

they have developed the project in close collaboration with Stjørdal

municipality, users of the health building, consultants, architects and

contractors. Detailed design starts in January, with start of construction in

April 2019 and completion in December 2020.
