CAD floor plan modeling
Fri, Feb 19, 2027 · Week 5 · Biotechnology for Health (Biomedical Innovations)
Today's goal: Model an ER floor plan using CAD or modeling tools that satisfies your criteria and constraints.
What a finished product looks like
This is a model of the work you should turn in today. Use it to check your own: match the structure and the level of detail, do not copy it. Your data and wording should be your own.
ER floor-plan model report
Scale: 1 cm = 1 meter.
Layout summary: Triage sits just inside the entrance. Six treatment bays curve in an arc facing a central nurse station so every bay is in direct line of sight. A clear corridor runs from triage along the arc to the results and discharge area, keeping the patient-flow path one-directional to avoid cross-traffic.
Constraint check (against the design brief):
- Space: layout fits inside the existing footprint. Met.
- Staffing: one nurse station covers all six bays by sight, so no new staff assumed. Met.
- Budget: only curtains and bay rearrangement, no construction. Met.
- Safety codes: corridor clearance and two exits preserved. Met.
Design intent communicated: the curved, visible arc plus a one-way flow path is what lets the same staff turn rooms faster and watch every patient.
Also due today: Save and submit the floor-plan model file to the Schoology build assignment by end of period.
