![]() ![]() The complexity of Banner Thunderbird, a healthcare facility, made it the ideal type of building to use a tool such as BIM. The Banner Thunderbird project utilized BIM for the modeling of concrete, structural steel, MEP below-grade and above-ceiling coordination, medical equipment support systems, select architectural framing, and complete exterior mock-ups. Offsite work consisted of a new electrical service entrance section to the facility, which extended from over a mile away. The central plant was also expanded and remodeled to accommodate the needs of the growing facility. The remodel phase included the departments of sterile processing, dietary services, education and conference, cath labs and medical imaging, PACU, and patient rooms. The new main entrance to the hospital is comprised of a general information desk, dining, administration and a library for families. For the majority of lab tests, a trained technician, nurse or provider will collect a sample of blood, urine or other tissue to screen for conditions. The bed tower has an intensive care unit, telemetry, and medical surgical care. Whether you’re in the hospital or having a routine checkup, Banner provides a wide range of tests, efficiently and accurately, so you can feel confident about your health. The six-story tower included an additional 200 patient beds and an 84 exam room emergency department. Banner Thunderbird was a multi-phased healthcare construction project that included a new 300,000-square-foot patient tower, main hospital entrance, and extensive remodel of the existing hospital. All Banner facilities are pleased to provide interpretation services to our patients and their companions for no charge - just ask when you arrive. ![]()
