New Royal Adelaide Hospital

During construction, it was the most expensive building in Australia and the third most expensive in the world. Eleven stories high and spread across ten hectares, hosting 800 beds and 6,000 sta , the NRAH sees an estimated 85,000 inpatients and 400,000 outpatients every year. Its innovative design uses cutting- edge technology to set new standards in conservation and environmental management.
