Osakidetza/Servicio Vasco de Salud has awarded EBA, in a joint venture with Viuda de Sainz, Urbelan, and Emartin Facilities, the contract for the construction of the new Outpatient Consultation Building at Basurto University Hospital in Bilbao, Vizcaya, covering nearly 40,000 square meters. The project will be executed using BIM methodology.
This project involves the comprehensive construction of a new facility that will house Outpatient Consultation Areas, a Pharmacy Service, and a Radiodiagnosis Unit dedicated to ambulatory patients, along with a small area for outpatient procedures. The building is structured with four underground floors, a common ground floor, and two main volumes rising from the first floor onwards:
-Block A, facing Capuchinos Street, consists of a ground floor plus four floors above ground.
-Block B, facing Gurtubay Street, features a ground floor plus three floors above ground.
Due to the building’s functions, which are constantly evolving with the emergence of new techniques and technologies, it has been designed with great flexibility to ensure easy adaptation to future needs.
It is also worth noting that, from an architectural and visual impact perspective (as it is located within the Basurto Hospital complex, facing protected buildings), the project features a modern design that is seamlessly integrated into the hospital environment. The building’s expression is coherent with its intended use and orientation, establishing a formal dialogue with the nearby protected structures.
