Healthcare MEP & MEPF BIM

Pharmaceutical Building, Tanzania

Tanzania

Project Overview

The Pharmaceutical Building in Tanzania is a healthcare and life sciences development. The project required comprehensive BIM modelling to support construction coordination, detailed documentation, and the delivery of accurate shop and as-built drawings for the structural and all building services.

OneClick BIM developed coordinated LOD 350, 400 and 500 BIM models that enhanced multidisciplinary coordination, improved documentation accuracy, and supported efficient project execution throughout the construction lifecycle.

OneClick BIM's Scope

OneClick BIM was responsible for developing coordinated BIM models and producing construction-ready documentation for the pharmaceutical facility.

The project scope included:

  • • LOD 350, 400 and 500 BIM Modelling
  • • Structural Modelling
  • • MEP Services Modelling, including HVAC, Fire Fighting, Plumbing, Electrical, CCTV and Gas Pipes
  • • Shop Drawing Production
  • • As-Built Drawing Development
  • • Coordinated BIM Model Development

The coordinated BIM model served as a reliable digital reference throughout construction and project handover.

Key Challenge

Pharmaceutical facilities involve highly coordinated structural and MEP systems that must meet strict construction and operational requirements. The challenge was to maintain accurate coordination across multiple building services while producing detailed shop and as-built documentation to support construction, commissioning, and long-term facility management.

OneClick BIM's Workflow

Project Information Review

Project documentation and design information were reviewed to establish modelling standards and project deliverables.

BIM Model Development

Coordinated LOD 350, 400 and 500 BIM models were developed for the structural framework and all building services.

Coordination Review

The multidisciplinary models underwent coordination and quality reviews to verify accuracy and resolve potential conflicts before documentation.

Drawing Production

Detailed shop drawings and as-built drawings were generated directly from the coordinated BIM model to support construction and final project handover.

Final BIM Delivery

OneClick BIM delivered coordinated LOD 350, 400 and 500 BIM models together with detailed shop drawings and as-built documentation for the Pharmaceutical Building in Tanzania. The deliverables improved construction coordination, enhanced documentation quality, and provided an accurate digital record of the completed facility.

Key Project Highlights

  • LOD 350, 400 and 500 BIM Model
  • Structural and MEP Modelling
  • Coordinated Shop Drawings
  • As-Built Documentation
  • Improved Construction Coordination
  • Enhanced Documentation Accuracy

PROJECT DETAILS & WORKFLOW

Frequently Asked Questions

What is BIM for pharmaceutical facilities? +

Pharmaceutical facilities need highly coordinated structural and MEP systems that meet strict construction and operational requirements. For the Pharmaceutical Building in Tanzania, OneClick BIM developed coordinated LOD 350, 400 and 500 models that enhanced multidisciplinary coordination across the facility.

What is MEP modelling for pharmaceutical facilities? +

MEP modelling builds the mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems into the coordinated 3D model. On this facility, HVAC, fire fighting, plumbing, electrical, CCTV and gas pipe services were modelled together with the structural framework so every building service stayed coordinated.

What is LOD 500 in BIM? +

LOD 500 is the as-built level of development, where the model matches what was actually built and can support facility management. This project was modelled across LOD 350, 400 and 500, from coordination through to as-built documentation.

What are shop drawings in BIM? +

Shop drawings are the detailed installation drawings produced from the coordinated model. On this project, detailed shop drawings were generated directly from the coordinated BIM model to support construction.

What is as-built documentation in BIM? +

As-built documentation records what was actually built. On this facility, as-built drawings were developed from the coordinated model, providing an accurate digital record of the completed facility for commissioning and long-term facility management.

How does BIM support pharmaceutical construction coordination? +

The multidisciplinary models are reviewed for accuracy and conflicts are resolved before documentation. On this project, coordination and quality reviews verified accuracy across all building services before the drawings were produced.

What deliverables come from a pharmaceutical BIM project? +

Coordinated BIM models plus the shop and as-built drawings generated from them. For this facility, the deliverables were LOD 350, 400 and 500 Revit models, shop drawings and as-built drawings, improving construction coordination and documentation quality.
