Project Overview

Case Study: BIM Delivery for 15+ Acre Hyperscale Data Center

As demand for cloud computing and digital infrastructure continues to grow, hyperscale data centers have become essential assets for global technology companies.

Acurabim Engineers was selected to deliver complete BIM coordination and MEP modeling support for a large-scale 15+ acre hyperscale data center developed by Adani Group for Microsoft.

This mission-critical facility required precision engineering, rapid coordination, and zero-error execution.

The Challenge

What made this project complex

Cable-stay bridges present some of the most demanding steel detailing challenges in the industry. The complex geometry of the pylon, stay anchors, deck sections, and connection nodes had to be modelled and detailed to millimetric precision — any error cascades directly to fabrication and site erection sequences.

Key Challenges

Key Challenges project complex

The project faced major challenges due to dense utility congestion, limited service space, aggressive delivery timelines, and continuous design revisions. Large electrical cable tray systems created coordination difficulties across multiple disciplines. Advanced BIM clash detection, parallel workflows, and real-time collaboration helped optimize space utilization, improve coordination accuracy, and maintain efficient project delivery.

Utility Congestion & Space Constraints

Solution: Advanced BIM clash detection and multi-discipline rerouting optimized available space.

Tight Delivery Timeline

Solution: Parallel BIM workflows and real-time cloud collaboration accelerated delivery.

Continuous Design Changes

Solution: Strong revision-control and change-management workflows maintained model accuracy.
