Benjamin Russell Hospital for Children
The Benjamin Russell Hospital for Children—one of the largest hospital construction projects in Alabama—is the centerpiece of Children’s Hospital of Alabama. This renowned medical institution based in Birmingham offers comprehensive pediatric care.
In a joint venture with HOAR/BE&K, CHA developed comprehensive fire suppression systems. Features included variable speed fire pumps, high-pressure standpipe systems, and numerous wet, dry, and pre-action systems.
