Hospitals, Medical Centers, Universities, Colleges and Airports all have parking garage needs. New parking garage construction may be a requirement for an expanding hospital or medical facility, a growing university or college and a busy airport. The design build approach is ideal for hospital parking garages, university parking garages and airport parking garages. especially where the projects may be government-funded. The design/build approach puts the parking garage owner in a turnkey position, and eliminates the time consuming activities associated with evaluating and managing multiple proposals, vendors and costs. Under the design-build format, a hospital, college, university or airport hires one company to do both the design and construction of the parking garage project, using one contract. In this format, the design, budget and timeline are bid as a package, and the owner accepts the one combination that best meets the parking garage project’s overall goals. That makes the agent responsible for the entire process. Design-build projects are becoming increasingly popular in the private sector and government agencies realize that this same process is effective in the public sector. Laws are now in place in several states to allow the design-build method of project delivery as an alternative. Prior to enacting laws in different states for design build, government officials discuss the design-build concept with the local design and construction industry professionals. The five benefits to hospitals parking garages, university parking garages and airport parking garages are: one point of contact for design and construction responsibility; you save time because design and construction phases overlap; there is early development of a guaranteed price; you have the ability to consider the qualifications of the project team and technical qualities of the proposal, in addition to cost; there is better risk management, since the design and construction are performed by the same parking garage construction company. Parking garage restoration for hospitals, colleges, universities and airports is also important to maintain on a regular basis to increase the life of the garage. The types of restoration that can be performed for concrete rehabilitation are carbon fiber, vertical and horizontal concrete repair, full-floor concrete repair, steel plating and bracing, post-tensioning repair, plaza rehabilitation, shotcrete installation, deck waterproofing systems including joint sealants, traffic deck coatings, concrete sealers and expansion joint sealing systems.
