Moderna Clinical Development Manufacturing Facility
Norwood, MA
Pare completed the structural assessment and design of the Moderna Clinical Development Manufacturing Facility in Norwood, MA. For this $130M project, Pare performed extensive field inspections/assessments of a 200,000-SF mothballed Polaroid manufacturing plant to determine the existing building’s structural capacity and developed a 3D REVIT model in order to gut and retrofit the building. Pare then designed an independent structural system that extends through the building to new foundations. This system supports six Pare-designed rooftop platforms totaling 33,000 SF and supporting 26 air handling units weighing a total of 270 tons
