Construction of a Hospital Complex Behind the Enfant-Jésus Hospital

Integrating a New Hospital Complex

Our team was awarded the project to build a new hospital complex (NCH) on the land behind the Enfant-Jésus Hospital.

Our work for Phase 1, covering 78,100 m², included these components:

• Developing three temporary parking sites.
• Building the Integrated Cancer Centre (including radiation oncology, biochemistry labs, generators and numerous technical tunnels to serve the various buildings).
• Building a multi-level underground parking lot and an above-ground parking lot, totaling 36,000 m² (800 spaces).
• Landscaping the site (44,000 m²).
• Demolishing the Partagec building (15,000 m²).
• Refurbishing inside the existing buildings (500 m²).

We used BIM technology to carry out the project, from the design stage to the construction phase, optimizing the following elements:

• 3D multidisciplinary coordination.
• Simulating and sequencing the work (4D).
• Cost and budget tracking (5D).
• Interference detection.
• Managing site logistics.
• Tracking defects.

Asbestos Removal and Decontamination

We had to remove asbestos and treat contaminated soil on the site.

Working in an Operational Hospital

We implemented special measures, such as strict vibration and dust control, to perform our work without disrupting the hospital's operations.

Cramped Construction Site

To carry out our work in a confined space with no storage space, we had to skillfully manage the logistics and schedule the delivery of materials on an as-needed basis.
