Winthrop Hospital

Scope

Winthrop Hospital is a 591-bed university hospital located on Long Island in Mineola, NY. Since 2004, this project has consisted of maintenance and restoration for five multi-story parking garages and three surface parking lots accommodating 3,500 vehicles. Each garage maintains a different building system, including steel frame, cast-in-place concrete, open-web joists, precast double tees and waffle slab construction. Work has included full and partial depth slab repairs, façade restoration, steel repairs, painting, control and expansion joint repairs, waterproofing, lighting system replacement, and reconfiguration of surface parking lots to increase capacity.

Approach

For this project, EDG provided structural analysis, condition survey and testing, design, bidding, construction administration, and job site supervision services. Investigation is always the first step to a successful project. This includes performing careful due diligence to obtain all of the available information about construction and repair history. By understanding every aspect of the project, we were able to provide considerable space, time and cost-saving solutions.

Impact

Value is at the center of everything we do, so we worked closely with the contractor for repairs. As a result, there were no surprises in material selection or cost, which was essential for performing the work within budget. Our experts are trained to work with contractors and collect their feedback, ensuring constructability.
