Infrastructure BIM
bridges, roads, utilities
Infrastructure BIM for bridges, roads and utilities: modelling along the alignment, with terrain, horizontal alignment and vertical profile.
Infrastructure does not model like a building. Instead of storeys there are alignments, gradients and cross-sections along a route.
What it is used for
- Bridge structures including substructure and foundations
- Road and rail alignments with terrain and ground models
- Sewer and utility networks
- Construction stages and traffic management during the works
Existing assets
In infrastructure almost every project is a project on an existing asset. The model therefore usually starts with a survey – see scan to BIM.
