Medical personnel recently moved into a fully renovated hospital at Langley Air Force Base in Langley, Va., according to an article on the Medical Construction & Design website.
The $62-million project has also been recognized by the Design-Build Institute of America — Southeast Region with a Design-Build Award for projects over $15 million.
The renovation reconfigured the USAF 1st Medical Group facilities to support the new technologies and equipment. The project also included the design and construction of a 3,492-square-foot veterinary clinic to serve the military working dogs, as well as the pets of base personnel.
All the work was completed through a phasing plan that allowed all departments to remain fully operational throughout construction, without the use of modular or temporary buildings.
