Nusano Radioisotope Pharmaceutical Production Facility - Core & Shell

Size: 145,000 SF Contract: $31,800,000 Completed: 2025

Description

The Nusano Radioisotope Pharmaceutical Production Facility in West Valley City is a groundbreaking project that sets new standards in precision construction and national innovation. Supported by nearly 700 deep auger piles, the building literally floats with less than a quarter-inch movement, even during major earthquakes. Overcoming unprecedented foundation challenges, the construction team’s ingenuity and teamwork drove a complex excavation, dewatering, and steel erection sequence that finished six months early.

This facility marks a historic milestone, enabling America to produce critical radioisotopes domestically, reducing reliance on foreign sources for cancer therapies and advanced technologies. Featuring cutting-edge safety protocols and unmatched craftsmanship by Stout and key subcontractors J&M Steel, Frontline Concrete, and Kaiser Excavations, this project embodies durability, precision, and scientific progress. It stands as a beacon of Utah’s emerging innovation hub and a vital step toward American self-sufficiency in life-saving medical technology.
