Claraspital — CHF 140 Million Renovation

Our Challenge

The Claraspital building in Basel will be replaced by a new four-story structure. For the executive project, neither architectural documentation, engineering records, existing installations, nor material quantities for recycling were available.

Solution Implemented

Together with our sister company BIM Facility AG, we conducted a strategic analysis to define the technical scope of the new DIGITAL TWIN proposed as the solution.

More than 2,500 laser scans were executed into a point cloud, and a BIM model was subsequently created.

In addition to the architectural model, the complete building technology was also modeled, including many special systems such as gas installations, pneumatic tubes, liquids, etc.

Benefits

With the new DIGITAL TWIN, project stakeholders had access to high-quality information and modern collaboration platforms, enabling them to define an efficient action plan.

They planned faster and with greater confidence, reducing errors and rework, achieving significant savings in cost, time, logistics, and relocation effort.
