Description
The Elqui Clinic was upgraded to a full-service hospital and healthcare center that offers general and internal medical services; these include a full range of surgical facilities, pediatrics, a nutrition center, a neurological treatment facility, dermatology and ophthalmic services, and many other specialties. The upgrade not only tripled the number of hospital beds, but also increased the hospital footprint by a third and doubled parking capacity (from 170 to 340 spaces)
Products Used
PENETRON ADMIX was added to the concrete mix during the batching phase by Concretes Melon SA. The waterproofing properties of the crystalline admixture secured the building’s perimeter walls and the foundation slab. Further, PENEBAR SW-45 swellable-type waterstop strips were used to prevent water ingress along the concrete joints.
