The Manchester office of White Young Green (WYG), consultants to the built, natural and social environment, has returned to Aintree Hospital, Liverpool to undertake its second project in two years.
WYG is providing design services for the foundation and drainage of a new £6 million building which will house a mortuary, histopathology laboratories, an electro-biomedical engineering department and an IT centre. The vacated histopathology building will be demolished to provide a site for a new elective care centre.
Start on site for the three-storey steel framed building began at the end of April with a 61-week programme. Anthony Fuller, director of WYG’s Manchester office, said: “We are delighted to be working with both Aintree Hospital Trust and Gleeson Building again, having established a good working relationship with both organisations in 2005.
“The foundations we have designed will comprise continuous helical displacement piles which will help to reduce the noise and vibration to the surrounding patient area and special attention has been given to the surface water drainage systems due to the high risk of flooding to the local watercourses.”
