“This hospital is the culmination of a dream dating back a quarter-century and underlines our commitment to the country and people of Haiti.”
- Dr. Paul Farmer, Co-founder, Partners In Health
Zanmi Lasante National Teaching Hospital
Mirebalais, Republic of Haiti
Waterfield Design Group, Inc. provided structural engineering field inspection services during the critical construction phase of the Partners in Health (PIH) / Zanmi Lasante National Teaching Hospital located in Mirebalais.
When it opens its doors later in 2012, this 180,000 square foot, 320 bed hospital will be the country of Haiti’s largest, most modern, state-of-the-art medical facility building.
We helped PIH oversee the most critical aspects of the installation of reinforcing steel throughout the first floor of this complex facility. Our licensed structural engineers gave guidance to the local rebar production and installation crews to ensure that their field work confirmed precisely to the structural engineering requirements and specifications required by the design plans.
