Huntington Hospital Uses SLENDERWALL® for Addition

LONG ISLAND, NY. – Huntington Hospital, Long Island, NY, specified the SLENDERWALL® architectural precast concrete panel system for the addition on to the existing structure.

Arcon, Inc., an Easi-Set® Industries SLENDERWALL® licensee, located in Gilford, NH, was the chosen manufacturer for the project.

The patented SLENDERWALL® architectural precast concrete panel system was proposed for the project by Barr & Barr Contractors because of the successful results from an earlier project in Mahwah, NJ. SLENDERWALL® allowed for a fast schedule and saved the project many months and considerable money as compared to traditional construction costs. By using SLENDERWALL®, the project gained additional floor space. The galvanized steel stud framework of the panel system accepts drywall directly needing no floor mounted steel stud wall.

SLENDERWALL® combines time-proven components to create a permanent, light weight wall system for both new construction and recladding projects. Architectural precast concrete, welded stainless steel Nelson® anchors and heavy-gauge stainless or galvanized steel studs create a single, efficient exterior wall system with unlimited design freedom. Due to the exclusive “lift-and-release” panel landing system of SLENDERWALL®, installation time and costs can be reduced by 50%.

Only SLENDERWALL® offers the latest DURAFLEX 360° technology. This technology is the only 2” wall connection system that meets AAMA 501.4-2000, the Interstory Differential Movement vertical and horizontal displacement test. DURAFLEX 360° allows isolation from the exterior precast concrete skin and the structural stresses associated with wind loading, steel frame movement, expansion & contraction and seismic shock.
