The Royal Women’s Hospital redevelopment is a new world class hospital developed adjacent to the Royal Melbourne Hospital site.

   This 160 bed specialist women’s and neo-natal paediatric health service has been designed as an iconic stand alone facility with its own distinctive presence, but able to tap into infrastructure and support services from the Royal Melbourne Hospital.

   It is innovative in its approach with 100% fresh air conditioning to the inpatient wards using the displacement method. The design is flexible to meet future needs with provision for future expansion designed from the outset.

   A 160 bed acute health care hospital for the Bathurst health region.

   Consisting of: Four operating theatres, 8 ICU beds and Roof top Helipad designed for heavy inertial loadings from ADF and commercial helicopters.

   This prestigious project, with a cost budget of $225 million, consists of two new high profile, interactive and contemporary buildings designed to engender interaction and enhanced collaboration.

   Six organisations are located over two sites (Parkville and Austin). A sharing of similar design elements and themes was adopted to create the sense of a single centre throughout all buildings and sites. In order to promote interactivity, a ‘stacking arrangement’ has been adopted throughout the project. This stacking configuration is a large square or rectangular planned building over four or five levels inter-connected with open stairs, light wells, and meeting places, to optimise visual and circulation connections.

   Stage 1A: Private Medical Centre and Private Hospital – A tenlevel building including a single basement. Ground floor and levels one to four accommodate radiology, pathology, pharmacy, laboratories, consulting suites and public facilities. Levels five to eight comprise a private hospital, with operating suites and wards.

   Stage 1B: Combined Services and Operating Theatre Block – This is a six-level building, including a basement. An innovative structural floor system was developed for this project, comprising reinforced concrete band beams supporting one-way ribbed slabs formed by metal-tray formwork. This building also incorporates provision to construct three additional levels in the future. Departments accommodated in the building include Emergency, Medical Imaging, Cardiology, Coronary Care Unit, Operating Theatres, Associated Teaching Facilities, Staff Amenities and TSSU.

   Stage 2A – Creation of a new atrium between existing buildings, accommodating predominantly public spaces and staff amenity facilities.

   This project has developed new facilities to implement policy changes in extended care services away from large aged residential care and bedbased services, towards specialized services for older people, with a focus on assessment and treatment, with access to specialised clinical services and rehabilitation services, including Hydrotherapy.

   The Williamstown Hospital has completed a two stage redevelopment, including major renewal and extensions of all clinical (medical, surgical and obstetric) in-patient areas, plus the development of three new operating theatres.

   The new Townsville general hospital was constructed on a greenfield site near James Cook University.

   The hospital is a four storey development with a gross floor area of 5500m2 and a total project value of $170M. The project is divided into four distinct areas: Ward, Acute, Education and Central Energy.

   The buildings are designed for both cyclonic and seismic loading.
