Radiation Therapy Vaults - Featured Projects
Our experience in this field goes back to building one of the first cyclotrons at the University of Chicago. The specification called for a massive door to be filled with concrete. No problem. A hole was drilled in the floor slab above and we poured the concrete right into the door.
Since then we have built rooms for Cobalt therapy, remodeled Cobalt therapy rooms for low energy accelerators, and renovated high-energy vaults for even higher energy accelerators. We know our neutrons, photons and x-rays.
Advocate Condell Linear Accelerator Project
Healthcare • Radiation Therapy Vaults •
The plan called for the addition of brand new vault and the installation of a Varian TrueBeam Linear Accelerator while treating patients in close proximity – all with no interruptions, disruptions, or health and safety compromises. Was that possible?

The relationship that Frank H. Stowell & Sons has developed with Varian Medical Systems over the years is a consequence of our understanding their equipment’s stringent technical requirements and being responsive to each project’s unique demands.

Louis Stokes VA Med. Ctr. Cleveland, Ohio, Linear Accelerator
Healthcare • Radiation Therapy Vaults •
We, at Frank H. Stowell & Sons, appreciate the opportunities we have had build spaces for Varian Medical Systems TrueBeam linear accelerators in VA hospitals across the US.
That said, our Cleveland project contained a significant wrinkle. The only way to bring the equipment into the basement-level vault was through a public plaza.

Methodist Hospital Merrillville, Ind. Radiation Therapy Vaults
Healthcare • Radiation Therapy Vaults •
Thanks to an opportunity to build side-by-side Radiation Therapy rooms, we, at Frank H. Stowell & Sons, were able to get an extra bump in the number of Varian TrueBeam spaces we have built. Of course, what it did not do was reduce the amount of concrete wall and radiation protection that we had to install.
