The remediation of one of the UK’s largest Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (RAAC) affected hospital estates while keeping it fully operational. The project team focused on minimising risk exposure and avoiding catastrophic failure, all within a live clinical environment. The project combines structural expertise with clear communication, digital tools, and ongoing public safety.
A quietly exceptional project that puts communication, care, and professional responsibility at the forefront of structural engineering. Delivered in a fully occupied hospital, the work sets a clear benchmark for RAAC remediation, combining technical leadership with people-focused decision-making. Through open dialogue, smart digital tools, and a calm response to risk, the team helped shape a new standard for critical infrastructure remediation.
