Winchester Hospital Parking Garage
Scope/Solutions
The parking garage at Winchester Hospital was constructed in 1982 and is used heavily during the day by patients and visitors. The concrete structure, primarily comprising precast double-tees, beams, and columns, exhibited cracking and spalling. SGH investigated the structure’s condition and designed repairs to extend its useful life.
SGH determined the structure required remedial work to address corrosion‑related deterioration and designed repairs, including:
- Full-depth repairs to precast double tee flanges
- Partial-depth repairs to precast inverted tee beams supporting the double-tees, precast concrete columns, and cast-in-place concrete curbs
- Repairs to deteriorated plumbing components
We helped Winchester Hospital coordinate scheduling and implement the project in phases, allowing the garage to remain open during the work.
