Size: 5216 sq. ft. Design: Chafford Owner: Robert Cody, DVM Description: After a devastating fire completely destroyed the clinic, we were asked to redesign, demolish and rebuild it as soon as possible. |

| Coordinating with local authorities as well as insurance adjusters, demolition began the next day. Within ten days a completely redesigned floor plan was generated. The clinic was occupied ninety-five days thereafter. | |
 |
Design Feature: Restricted to the existing building "footprint" because of municipal zoning, the reception area was doubled in size and a fourth exam room was added by rotating the reception desk ninety degrees and repositioning the entrance doors. This change also permitted the creation of a continuous hallway linking all aspects of the practice operation. A greatly improved client and staff "traffic flow" resulted. |
| Construction Nuance: In testing the concrete surface of the boarding, grooming, and ward areas, prior to the installation of layered epoxy flooring, it was noticed that moisture levels were not only too high, but were increasing. This is a very unusual phenomenon. Slab borings were performed, and it was determined that a natural water spring existed under this area of the clinic. Because epoxy will not "breathe" moisture while curing, a change to an acrylic based, layered, application was made. It is permeable to moisture while curing. | |
