RECENT
PROJECT NEWS |
|
Understanding
the need for quality testing data along with
professional consulting services, the
Bell Flooring Sciences Group was selected
by one of the largest general contractors (ranked in
the top 10 both nationally and globally by the
Engineering News-Record) to perform
concrete slab moisture and alkalinity testing at a new
500,000 square foot cancer hospital. After
identifying issues with excessive concrete slab
moisture and alkalinity levels, we worked with the
design and construction team in the resolution to
this problem to ensure a successful finished
flooring installation. The current hospital is ranked by US
News & World Report as one of the Best Hospitals
in the country ranked as top hospital in cancer and
ten other adult specialties. |
