Engineering the Future of Care

Structural Engineering for Healthcare Facilities

Healing environments demand structural excellence

At Bennett & Pless, we bring decades of experience as healthcare structural engineering consultants, partnering with architects, facility teams, and hospital systems to deliver safe, functional, and adaptable healthcare spaces.

From ground-up hospitals to equipment-specific retrofits, we help ensure that every structure supports optimal patient care, advanced technology, and ongoing operations.

Across the South, we’ve supported the structural design of hospitals, specialty clinics, surgery centers, and outpatient facilities with care, precision, and purpose.


Why structural engineering in healthcare matters

Healthcare facilities must do more than stand strong—they must support critical care, heavy equipment, and evolving treatment technologies. Our structural engineering team understands the unique demands of these environments, including:

  • Increased floor loading for CTs, MRIs, and medical robotics
  • Strict occupancy and code requirements
  • Integrated systems for uninterrupted facility operations

We help ensure every structure functions with long-term flexibility and reliability.


Our approach to healthcare structural engineering

Every healthcare project starts with deep listening and close collaboration. At Bennett & Pless, we work side by side with facility managers, architects, and construction teams to fully understand operational needs and future goals.

We conduct detailed structural analyses and design solutions that accommodate specialized medical equipment, infection control standards, and technology integration while minimizing disruption to ongoing patient care.

Our approach is rooted in clarity, coordination, and care. Because in healthcare, precision matters.
