FIU

Detail has worked with Stobs Construction on renovations at Florida International University (FIU), improving bathrooms, kitchens, ceilings, labs, and piping systems.

Challenges included integrating new sanitary and hydraulic networks under restricted schedules and locating lines not matching the original plans.

Medical gas installations required extra care for safety. Detail addressed these with optimized routing, roofing improvements, and system repairs. The result: fully functional, upgraded spaces delivered on time and approved in final inspections.

Project Scope

This project involved the improvement and remodeling of key areas, including bathrooms, kitchens, ceilings, laboratories, and piping systems.

Work included equipment connections, sanitary and hydraulic upgrades, and the careful integration of medical gas lines. All installations were executed under restricted schedules, with solutions focused on optimizing routes and replacing damaged infrastructure. The project was completed on time and fully approved in final inspections.

Technical Challenges of the Project

Agile Coordination, Effective Solutions

  • Integration of new sanitary and hydraulic networks into existing spaces, under restricted schedules.

  • Locating existing lines, which are often shown in the plans but not actually present in those locations.

  • Medical gas lines for laboratories pose an additional challenge, as they must be installed with extreme care to prevent potential leaks of gases such as oxygen, nitrogen, and air.

Solutions Provided by Detail

  • Propose better routes for connecting to existing lines.


  • Replace or improve damaged roofs to ensure safety and protection.


  • Replace or repair faulty hydraulic or sanitary networks.

Final Result

The project is progressing smoothly, with all installed systems operating correctly and meeting code requirements.

Key inspections were approved in record time, allowing early delivery of critical areas without delays.

This challenge strengthened our team and proved that with planning and coordination, complex problems can become efficient solutions.
