PUNCH was appointed as Civil and Structural Engineering consultants acting on behalf of the HSE for the construction of a new 50 Bed CNU in Nenagh Co Tipperary. The unit was constructed on a 2.06ha greenfield site, directly adjacent to the Nenagh Hospital Campus.
The new development is a modern community nursing unit, built to the highest current standards and meets the high expectations of healthcare for public residential services. It is a two-storey building (4,466 m2) with bedrooms over two floors and associated support facilities, constructed around a central courtyard and with additional support blocks to the east.
The construction is precast hollowcore floor and roof slabs on loadbearing blockwork, with long span opes supported by concrete beams and columns.
At PUNCH, we understand the value of education. That’s why we support our staff who wish to undertake further education and training. We encourage staff members to maintain their Continuous Professional Development (CPD) accreditations with Engineers Ireland. We also continue to offer training in sustainable design and construction through seminars, in-house lectures, and external training programmes. We promote the achievement of professional titles with institutions such as Engineers Ireland, the Association of Consulting Engineers of Ireland, the Institute of Structural Engineers, and the Institute of Civil Engineers.
