Project Overview:
University Health broke ground in Selma, Texas, on this 166-bed acute care, full-service hospital and medical office building in early 2024. The hospital will include a 24/7 emergency department, labor and delivery unit, neonatal intensive care unit, operating rooms, radiology, pharmacy and lab services. 100,000 square feet of conjoined office space will also be used for appointments with medical and surgical specialists. This is one of the nation's first charity hospitals and the only hospital in the region with a Level I trauma center for both children and adults. TDIndustries was selected to manufacture and install mechanical systems in the hospital, including the air handler units, kitchen piping, HVAC ducting and headwall systems for the patient rooms. The job is the largest San Antonio construction project in company history. The majority of TD’s work should be complete by the end of 2025, with the hospital set to open in late 2026/early 2027. The project includes support across TD's enterprise, including engineering, VDC, preconstruction and prefabrication.

Project Complexity
TDIndustries is responsible for all of the mechanical work at the hospital excluding the pumped condensate and Central Utility Plant. That includes prefabricating and installing 282 headwalls and 72 in-wall systems for medical gases and other necessities for each patient room. This work is done at a local warehouse in coordination with other subcontractor partners on the project. This allows a higher level of safety by taking about 10,000 hours of work out of the field and into a more controlled setting. The prefabrication work also includes 1 million lbs. of duct, mechanical room piping and mechanical pipe risers. TD’s scope also includes installing air handler units and thousands of feet of ducting and piping at the site.
