DVH is proud to introduce the newly constructed Data Center in Malawi for Open Connect Limited, where we handled the Civil and Structural Engineering aspects of the project. Working closely with the project team, we developed a resilient building design that overcame several challenges, including the complex design of a raft slab with stub columns to support four 24-ton power modules. This state-of-the-art facility enhances Open Connect’s ability to deliver reliable, high-speed connectivity across Malawi, significantly boosting the nation’s digital infrastructure.
