Coordinated BIM Solutions for Advanced Cardiac Care Spaces

A specialized cardiac care facility in Dubai designed with high-precision BIM for medical equipment integration, safety, and healthcare compliance.

MaRS Design Studio provided comprehensive BIM solutions for a 32,000 sq. m. cardiac care center in Dubai. With a project budget of $12 million USD and a strict medical program, the project demanded high-level coordination, accuracy, and compliance. The scope included 3D modeling, MEP coordination, clash detection, and construction support.

The cardiac center features specialized spaces such as catheterization labs, operating rooms, ICU wards, diagnostic zones, and administrative offices. Our BIM team worked closely with architects, engineers, and healthcare consultants to ensure spatial efficiency, safety, and uninterrupted patient flow—all delivered on time during the 2020–21 project cycle.

Project Challenges

Integration of Specialized Medical Equipment

The center required the integration of complex medical equipment such as imaging machines, cath lab systems, and emergency backup services. Coordinating these elements with structural and MEP layouts was challenging due to strict spatial and operational requirements.

Space Constraints in Critical Areas

Operating rooms, ICUs, and labs needed high-density service zones within limited ceiling and wall space. Designing these areas without clashes required detailed BIM modeling and frequent updates during design revisions.

Adherence to Healthcare Safety Standards

The design had to comply with international and local healthcare safety regulations, including infection control, air pressure zoning, and patient accessibility. These needed close coordination between design, MEP, and healthcare compliance teams.

Our Solutions & Approach

We used BIM to deliver highly detailed models for all building systems. Our focus was on precision, safety, and seamless integration of specialized zones, ensuring smooth construction and long-term operational efficiency.
