BG&E was engaged as civil design consultants for the landmark Fiona Stanley Hospital, collaborating with the Department of Health and stakeholders on the civil project brief.

Following this, we joined the project under a design and construct contract with Brookfield Multiplex.

Named after prominent Australian epidemiologist Fiona Stanley, the two billion dollar Fiona Stanley Hospital, completed in 2014, was WA’s largest health infrastructure project upon its completion, blending innovative design with green vistas to promote well-being and healing.

BG&E played a significant role in the design and construction of the 232,000 square metre cohesive healthcare precinct.

BG&E Scope

• 783 bed, seven floor hospital providing surgical, acute care, emergency, and inpatient and outpatient services.
• Pathology and education facility, formed by two individual two storey buildings that sit over a 586 bay car park.
• 60 bed mental health building.
• Administration building, comprising two levels of office space and a plant room at the roof level.
• Four storey rehabilitation centre.
• Three storey central plant, plus a basement area that feeds into a buried service tunnel that supplies the other buildings.

Services included

• Site coordination including bulk earthworks, public roads, car parks and full servicing deriving the overall precinct stormwater drainage strategy.
• Stormwater drainage strategy including buildings and site discharge via a combination of local on-site detention, trunk systems, and major infiltration basins and wetlands including pollution controls.
• Civil engineering including the design and documentation of internal roads, main drainage infrastructure, and car parking facilities within the super lots created within the health care precinct.
• Collaboration with the hydro-geological subconsultants in the development of a precinct water balance study to determine the effect of the installation of the large infiltration and detention tanks and basins on the regional groundwater levels, quantity, and quality.
• Façade engineering including façade design, system costing, materials science assessment and material selection, shop drawings, submission reviews, and conducting factory and site inspections.

The striking façade includes precast concrete panels with multiple finishes, curtain walling, aluminum clad and glazed canopies, composite aluminum cladding, skylights, external shading devices and glazed entrance walls.
