The brief

A nine-floor outpatient clinic built eight feet from a working hospital.

What made it hard

Vibration, dust and deliveries had to stay below limits set by the operating theatres next door.

How we built it

  • Bored piles instead of driven piles
  • Negative-pressure dust wall along the shared boundary
  • Night deliveries through a single managed gate
The hospital never closed a ward, not for an hour.

Scope of work

  • Piling
  • Structure
  • Medical gas
  • Clean rooms
The owner's words
“They built nine floors next to a working hospital and we never closed a ward, not for an hour.”
