Construction Zone: Student health services

Jan 1, 2008 12:00 PM

Calpulli Center, a new $20.4 million student health services facility at San Diego State University, is situated on a 2.9-acre site and houses medical offices; exam and procedure rooms; radiology, pharmacy, optometry, and group testing rooms; and a future dental lab. It also includes faculty and staff offices and student rooms.

The 101,150-square-foot building is a steel-framed, moment-framed structure with a steel-studded and cement plaster exterior curtainwall system. A prominent design element is the four-story exterior courtyard walkway that provides access to all areas of the facility.

The architect is Architects | Delawie Wilkes Rodrigues Barker (San Diego).
