The Grange University Hospital

Description

The Grange University Hospital, part of Aneurin Bevan University Health Board, represents a significant £350 million investment in healthcare infrastructure. This state-of-the-art, 450-bed specialist critical care facility in Cwmbran, Wales, was developed to provide advanced healthcare services, focusing on critical and specialist care. Notably, the hospital was inaugurated four months ahead of schedule, which was instrumental in helping the local health system manage increased pressures during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Scope of Works

TPS360 was tasked with the installation of advanced flooring systems across various sections of the hospital, detailed as follows:

• Polymer Modified K Screed: 662m’, applied to create durable and resilient floor surfaces capable of handling heavy foot traffic and medical equipment.
• Levelling Screeds: 7389m’, used to ensure that all floor surfaces were perfectly flat and uniform, a critical requirement for hospital settings.
• PU Screed: 3083m’, selected for areas requiring robust, easy­ to-clean surfaces that can withstand frequent sanitation.
• Cove Details: 1200 linear meters, ensuring seamless transitions between floors and walls to maintain hygiene and ease of cleaning.
• Conductive Floor Coatings: 327m’, used in sensitive areas to prevent static electricity build-up, crucial in operating rooms and other critical care areas.
• Car Park Decking: 443m’, involving specialised treatments to accommodate high vehicle load and traffic.
• Floor Levelling: 400m’, additional adjustments to ensure surface evenness and stability.
• Structural Movement Joints: 316 linear meters, installed to accommodate building shifts and temperature-induced expansions or contractions without compromising floor integrity.
