The works area spanned over 1500 sqm and was located below the live radiology department. The Royal Belfast Hospital for Sick Children (Children’s Hospital) treats on average 34,000 children each year. The contaminant removal project was necessary to facilitate major refurbishment works to the Children’s x-ray facility . Over the years the thermal lagged pipework had deteriorated, resulting in the need for remedial works in the undercroft. The Total Works Package involved the removal of all thermal residues from contaminant surfaces, mechanical pipework and electrical fixtures and fittings. The project comprised over 2000m of pipework and steam lines.
