Replacement of ageing steam and condensate pipework beneath Central Drive – vital for operating theatres, ICU/CCU, and sterilisation services. The scope included asbestos removal and installation of three decentralised temporary boiler plants within a live acute hospital. Early-stage intrusive surveys and detailed utilities mapping de-risked complex historic infrastructure, enabling precise planning and compliant execution. Carefully rehearsed switchover procedures during night and weekend windows ensured uninterrupted steam supply, achieving zero impact on clinical operations.
