Forensic Lab Sample Project

BIM-ready forensic laboratory layout supporting evidence processing, analysis, and secure workflows.
Integrated safety and compliance design with controlled access zones, ventilation considerations, and clean/dirty separation.
Modular lab benches and casework built with accurate Revit families for fast customization.
Optimized for efficiency and chain-of-custody workflows within public safety and justice facilities.

This space accommodates critical functions such as evidence examination, lab testing, documentation, and secure storage while prioritizing safety, accuracy, and operational efficiency. The layout reflects real-world forensic workflows, ensuring clear separation between intake, analysis, and secure areas.The lab includes designated zones for evidence processing, wet and dry lab work, analyst workstations, and secure storage areas. Furniture and equipment, such as lab benches, fume hoods, sinks, casework, and specialized evidence lockers and storage, are modeled using BIM-ready Revit families, enabling precise coordination with MEP systems and building infrastructure. Circulation paths are carefully planned to minimize cross-contamination and support proper chain-of-custody procedures.As a Revit model, this sample project provides architects, designers, and BIM professionals with a highly adaptable starting point for forensic and public safety projects. The model supports efficient space planning, accurate documentation, and easy customization to meet local codes, agency standards, and evolving forensic technologies.
