Aurecon played a leading role in the design of Queensland Health’s Gold Coast University Hospital (GCUH) which is set for completion in December 2012.
Aurecon has been working as part of the GCUH Engineering Joint Venture (JV) with joint venture partners SKM and sub consultant S2f on what is Queensland Health’s largest single hospital infrastructure project. The JV is delivering all consulting engineering, including structural, civil, electrical, mechanical, hydraulics, lifts, fire services, information and communications technology , environmentally sustainable design, traffic and survey services for the project.
Detailed design has recently been completed for the ten-level hospital which forms one part of an integrated network of health services and infrastructure being developed to support the region.
Aurecon’s design delivers effective solutions that provide long term flexibility and future-proofing. The solutions complement patient models of care and capture innovations in technology and building sustainability, including:
The nearly 20 hectare GCUH site provides unique opportunities for the design team to develop campus infrastructure that supports the new facility and the broader health campus. Extensive work has been completed to date in terms of preparing the site for the iconic 168,000 m2 specialist hospital which is on track for delivery on time and on budget.
The GCUH will offer the local community a wider range of public health services than ever before. Locals can look forward to new health services including: specialist cancer, cardiac, neurosciences, trauma, and neonatal intensive care in a world-class facility that integrates patient care, teaching and research. The new public health facility will deliver higher quality health care services and improved health outcomes for Australia’s growing population.
