Moorfields Eye Hospital, a leader in ophthalmology, embarked on upgrading its fire protection system to enhance safety for patients and staff. The hospital, located on City Road, London, required a sophisticated sprinkler system to meet stringent healthcare safety standards while integrating seamlessly with the existing infrastructure.
Complex Layout: The multi-story design and numerous specialised areas of the hospital posed challenges in providing effective coverage without impacting medical operations.Sensitive Environment: The installation process had to be non-disruptive to the hospital’s ongoing patient care and clinical operations.Regulatory Compliance: Meeting healthcare-specific fire safety regulations was critical to ensuring safety and operational approval.
Our Solution
Fire Protection BIM was tasked with delivering a highly detailed 3D model of the sprinkler system to meet the unique needs of Moorfields. Through advanced modelling, we carefully planned the placement of sprinkler heads to optimise coverage while ensuring minimal disruption. Our design ensured seamless integration with existing infrastructure, carefully considering patient care and hospital operations. We also ensured that the system met all relevant fire safety regulations for healthcare facilities.
Results
The project was completed, with the new sprinkler system fully integrated and operational. The system now provides enhanced protection across the hospital, with minimal disruption to patient care or hospital activities.
