Hospital
Full MEP design and BIM coordination for a 320-bed acute care hospital expansion in downtown Toronto.
Hospital
A 320-bed acute care hospital expansion required full MEP design and BIM coordination to HTM standards. Our scope covered mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and medical gas design from schematic through to construction documentation, coordinated against the architectural and structural models and validated against infection control and ventilation requirements.
Where
HTM Compliance Required Specialist Knowledge
Hospital MEP design requires adherence to healthcare technical memoranda that generic MEP consultants aren't set up to deliver.
Medical Gas Added a Fifth Discipline
Medical gas design had to coordinate with mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire safety across a complex clinical layout.
Infection Control Was Non-Negotiable
Ventilation design had to enforce clinical zone boundaries precisely, with no tolerance for coordination errors.
Live Hospital on One Side of the Boundary
Construction had to connect into a live hospital infrastructure without disrupting clinical services.
A look inside the project.
Where
What
Five Specialist Disciplines
Mechanical, electrical, medical gas, plumbing, and fire safety all had to coordinate in a clinically constrained layout.
HTM Standard Compliance
Every MEP system had to meet specific healthcare technical memoranda requirements, not generic building standards.
Infection Control Ventilation
Pressure differentials and air change rates had to be designed and modelled precisely for every clinical zone.
Live Hospital Interface
All tie-ins to the existing hospital plant had to be designed to allow construction without clinical service interruption.
How
Design to HTM from Day One
Healthcare technical memoranda requirements were built into the MEP specifications at schematic stage.
Coordinate Medical Gas First
Medical gas routing was established before other MEP disciplines to ensure clinical priority spaces were correctly served.
Model Infection Control Zones
All ventilation zones were explicitly modelled and validated in the BIM model before construction documentation was issued.
Sequence the Live Interfaces
All live hospital tie-in sequences were designed and documented to protect clinical services throughout construction.
What
Full MEP Design Package
Complete MEP design from schematic through to construction issue, compliant with relevant HTM standards.
Medical Gas Design
Full medical gas system design including outlet schedules, pipeline sizing, and alarm system specification.
Infection Control Ventilation Model
Validated ventilation model with all clinical zones, pressure differentials, and air change rates documented.
Construction Documentation
Full construction drawing package with live hospital interface sequences.

What
“Healthcare MEP is genuinely complex — you can't just apply standard practice. Neutec understood the clinical environment and designed to it from day one.”
