New Brunswick's commercial construction is driven by an unusual density of institutions in a small city: Rutgers University's main campus, Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital, and a health-sciences and research district built around them.
The New Brunswick Development Corporation model of large public-private institutional projects keeps a steady pipeline of mid-rise and high-rise institutional construction downtown, on tight urban sites.
Building stock
University academic and residence buildings, hospital and research towers, downtown mixed-use with ground-floor retail, and older Georges Road and French Street commercial frontage.
Institutional and health-sciences buildings downtown are glazed in curtain wall, frequently with performance requirements — acoustics, solar control, blast or hurricane-rated glazing on research and clinical space — beyond what a commercial office building specifies. Tight urban sites also constrain hoisting and favor unitized assembly.
Scope
Hospital and campus entrances combine accessible operators, egress code, infection-control vestibules and card-access integration in one hardware package.
Entry doors & hardware →Ground-floor retail under institutional and mixed-use buildings, plus older commercial frontage, is conventional storefront scope.
Storefront systems →Occupied clinical and research space has near-zero tolerance for water entry, which makes proactive joint remediation a priority rather than a deferral.
Weatherproofing & silicone →The leading scope for New Brunswick's commercial building stock, described above.
Curtain wall →Coverage
