Image courtesy of WSP<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>1 Blackfriars<\/h3>\n<p>The 1 Blackfriars, London, project was named a finalist in Bentley\u2019s BIM Advancements in the Buildings &amp; Campuses category. Developed by St. George, 1 Blackfriars, London, is a \u00a3200m, mixed-use complex accented by an iconic 170-metre residential tower overlooking the River Thames. The property features an adjacent low-rise hotel and three-storey basement with pool, spa, cinema and other amenities. WSP worked with Simpson Haugh Architects to develop a structural framing solution for the layout of 274 apartments in the 50-storey tower.<\/p>\n<p>The unique building shape and geometry called for each floorplate to be a different size and shape. WSP imported floor plate layouts from the architect\u2019s 3D model to Bentley\u2019s concrete slab design application, RAM Concept, for modelling and design of the post-tensioned concrete floors. Using the software, WSP achieved an efficient, cost-effective structural solution incorporating longer, thinner slabs and fewer columns.<\/p>\n<p>The WSP team used RAM Structural Systems to design the steel framework for the building, including the building\u2019s glass roof that the team refers to as \u201cthe birdcage,\u201d and a column-free, two-storey mezzanine, which is open to the lobby.<\/p>\n<p>WSP shared the 3D models with contractors who used them to create their logistics plans, manage sequencing, and generate work packages.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBentley\u2019s RAM Concept and MicroStation software packages enabled WSP to design and deliver one of the most iconic projects in Europe. The software was a very effective tool to coordinate and design cost-efficient and environmentally friendly solutions for the benefit of the client and local community. The project stands as a centrepiece for architectural and engineering excellence,\u201d said Aret Garip, technical director for WSP UK.<\/p>\n<h3>A9 Dualling<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_37796\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-37796\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-37796 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/35481018783_68d6b9fcb5_o-300x169.png\" alt=\"Be Inspired Awards\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/35481018783_68d6b9fcb5_o-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/35481018783_68d6b9fcb5_o-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/35481018783_68d6b9fcb5_o-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/35481018783_68d6b9fcb5_o-100x56.png 100w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/35481018783_68d6b9fcb5_o-696x392.png 696w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/35481018783_68d6b9fcb5_o-1068x601.png 1068w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/35481018783_68d6b9fcb5_o-747x420.png 747w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/35481018783_68d6b9fcb5_o-1920x1080.png 1920w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/35481018783_68d6b9fcb5_o.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-37796\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BIM Advancements in Roads finalist: A9 Dualling from Glen Garry to Dalraddy<br \/>(Scottish Highlands), CH2M Fairhurst Joint Venture.

As part of Transport Scotland\u2019s \u00a33.4bn programme to improve safety and operational performance of the A9, the largest infrastructure project in Scotland\u2019s history, the CFJV was responsible for the engineering, environmental assessment, preliminary design, traffic and economics assessment, and supervision of procurement and construction for the 43km central section between Glen Garry and Kincraig. The CFJV was also tasked with providing the necessary documents and technology to meet the client\u2019s BIM Level 2 requirements.<\/p>\n<p>The team used Bentley\u2019s ProjectWise to implement the connected data environment and an integrated workflow that was fundamental to their BIM strategy. Using ContextCapture, the team produced a reality mesh that was made available to all team members to gain information about existing conditions without needing to travel to the work site. At each project stage, the team used LumenRT to generate realistic, fly-through videos to successfully communicate design intent to the public and key stakeholders.<\/p>\n<p>Neil Stewart, contract manager, A9 Glen Garry to Dalraddy, CH2M Fairhurst Joint Venture, said: \u201cBentley\u2019s design, modelling and visualisation tools have greatly contributed to achieving BIM Level 2 requirements as defined by our client. The development of an interactive, multidisciplinary 3D design model at an early stage in the scheme enabled our project team to work collaboratively to produce an efficient and sustainable design, which was environmentally led; a critical factor for success given the project sits within the highly sensitive Cairngorms National Park.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more about Bentley\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/pages.info.bentley.com\/beinspired2017\/\">2017 Be Inspired Awards and projects<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Watch the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bentley.com\/en\/yii\/video-gallery\">finalists\u2019 presentations<\/a>\u00a0from The Year in Infrastructure 2017 Conference.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Aidan Mercer<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Industry Marketing Director, AEC<\/p>\n<p>Bentley Systems<\/p>\n<p>Tel: +44 207 861 0900<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bentley.com\">www.bentley.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Twitter: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/BentleySystems\">@BentleySystems<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Projects from London to the Cairngorms National Park were among the UK schemes represented at Bentley Systems\u2019 annual Be Inspired Awards for BIM advancements<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[305],"tags":[428,577,576,813,943],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[172387],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-37794","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-bim-news","7":"tag-bim","8":"tag-bim-level-2","9":"tag-bim-software","10":"tag-bim-today-february-2018","11":"tag-sh-bentley-systems","12":"stakeholder_rel_tag-bentley-systems"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>UK firms recognised for BIM advancements in Bentley Systems\u2019 annual Be Inspired Awards | Planning, Building &amp;
