The Baird Family Hospital and Anchor Centre, a £224.8 million development in Aberdeen is one of the largest NHS projects in the UK, with the first buildings due for completion in 2023.
The healthcare facilities will include state-of-the-art research and development space, and enhance the provision of clinical care in the area. The main construction began in January 2021, following site preparation and enabling works.
Light Steel Frame Association member TekBuild has been involved with the project, supplying the structural steel framing systems for the development, and working with main contractor Graham's, to deliver and install the system.
The Baird Family Hospital, located at the Foresterhill Health Campus, will vastly improve access to healthcare and clinical support including community led maternity, neonatology, and radiology services together with operating theatres. The hospital is due to open in 2024, while the Anchor Centre will open next year. Progress on the site can be seen via a number of time lapse videos which are available at www.bairdanchor.org
