MARINE CORPS BASE CAMP PENDLETON, Calif. – Maintaining the highest standards on the Replacement Naval Hospital Project an infiltration window test was preformed Aug 3 on the North East side of the hospital. Fifteen pounds of vacuum pressure sucked air from future recovery rooms windowpanes. Water from the outside the hospital simulated conditions that of a category one hurricane. A Clark/McCarthy team member safety perched outside the hospital forced water onto the curtain wall window frames. These mock-ups provide reassurance and stability to the quality of work performed on the Naval Hospital project.
