University of Colorado Health Highlands Ranch Hospital

Highlands Ranch, CO

University of Colorado Health Highlands Ranch Hospital in Highlands Ranch, CO, uses 22,000 SF of GreenGirt Max CMH™ over steel studs, behind metal panel cladding, with mineral wool insulation. It is a hospital campus expansion of two new buildings adding capacity and specialized care, designed by Page Southerland Page, built by Layton Construction Company, and installed by Long Building Technologies.

A hospital depends on a stable interior for patient care, held against the cold winters of the Colorado Front Range. GreenGirt Max CMH carries continuous mineral wool outside the steel framing, keeping the studs from forming cold spots and maintaining the wall’s effective R, while supporting the metal panels on a thermally broken connection.
