PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The stone clad building incorporates a substantial internal courtyard, two physiotherapy gymnasiums, occupational therapy internal and external spaces, consultancy rooms, offices and ancillary accommodation and was designated as a flagship facility for the CRC. The structure comprises loadbearing masonry, reinforced concrete and curtain walling in a robust and efficient response to the architectural requirements, and was designed to support additional stories in specific areas as a future guarding measure.
PROJECT COMPLEXITIES
The adjacency of the project site to the main hospital entrance presented a significant challenge to the design team and contractor in terms of construction access and management, which was successfully overcome by close collaboration between all of the project stakeholders.
