Al Adan Hospital

Mubarak Al-Kabeer, Kuwait

Doka Kuwait is participating in the construction of one of the largest and most modern hospitals in the Middle East. The Al Adan Hospital in the Mubarak Al-Kabeer region was originally built in 1981 to cater to the need for medical care of an estimat-ed 600,000 inhabitants in the Al Ahmadi region. In 2016 the facility was granted an additional 20,000 m² of land, on which an extension with 632 beds is currently being built. In addition, sufficient space will be created across 14 floors and a total of 280,000 m² for a number of care facilities including general sur-gery, a day unit, a gynaecological and paediatric clinic, rooms for physiotherapy and rehabilitation, and administrative areas.

Challenge:
One of the principal achievements of Doka Kuwait was the simultaneous construction of 25 load-bearing walls for the gynaecological and paediatric clinic. This was necessary to keep to the project schedule.

Solution:
Climbing formwork 150F was one of the items of equipment used for the project, in order to reduce the length of time that the cranes were necessary on the site.
