BIM Today highlights two UK projects that took home the top prizes<\/h2>\n<p>The Year in Infrastructure Awards were launched in 2004 as the Be Inspired Awards to showcase how users of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/tag\/sh-bentley-systems\/\">Bentley Systems<\/a> software were advancing the design, construction and operation of infrastructure across the globe. Since then, the programme has recognised more than 3,500 projects. The 2018 edition attracted a record number of entries, with 420 schemes representing more than 350 cities in 60-plus countries put forward.<\/p>\n<p>Twelve independent juries of industry experts picked 57 finalists, with 19 winners and nine Special Recognition Awards announced at Bentley\u2019s Year in Infrastructure Conference held in London in October. Two UK-based projects took home the top awards in their categories.<\/p>\n<h3>Advancing Digital Twins for Tunnels<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aecom.com\/\">AECOM<\/a> won the Advancing Digital Twins for Tunnels award for its work on the Thames Tideway Tunnels C410 Central Contract, which harnesses Bentley\u2019s Connected Data Environment (CDE) to improve collaboration across the project team.<\/p>\n<p>The London sewerage system was designed in the Victorian age to serve a population of around four million. There are now more than double that number of people living in the capital and this growth has put significant strain on the system, causing it to spill millions of tonnes of sewerage into the tidal section of the River Thames every year.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-49618 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"Year in infrastructure awards\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards-768x430.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards-696x390.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards-750x420.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>The \u00a34.2bn <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/bim-news\/tilos-helps-thames-tideway-teams-to-visualise-and-integrate-plans\/41017\/\">Thames Tideway Project<\/a> aims to tackle this by creating a 25km tunnel, running mostly under the tidal section of the river through central London, to provide capture, storage and conveyance of almost all the combined raw sewerage and rainwater discharges that currently overflow into the Thames.<\/p>\n<p>The project has been divided into three contracts: East, Central and West.<\/p>\n<p>The scale of the scheme creates many challenges, from marine construction works in the River Thames to solving design issues where large gas mains are located close to existing river walls.

This ensures they are working to a common standard, including both temporary and permanent works.<\/p>\n<p>AECOM has already seen numerous benefits and savings from adopting a digital twin and CDE. The Design Master Model was used to produce iModels on a weekly and monthly basis, which were available for all stakeholders to see the development of each site as it progressed.<\/p>\n<p>The project team used iModels to carry out multi-discipline clash checks that were sent to the design and modelling teams to resolve, as well as using them to review internal design.<\/p>\n<p>The digital twin and CDE also resulted in \u201cnon-engineering\u201d savings, including increased IT security and reliability, better access and editing control, improved automatic PDF generation and reduced travel costs for project members by enabling real-time access anywhere, at any time.<\/p>\n<p>Barry Jones, associated director and BIM manager at AECOM, said: &#8220;Bentley&#8217;s ProjectWise provided a controlled environment where a virtual representation of the asset&#8217;s eight individual sites is built. The environment comprised multiple disciplines that produced more than 140,000 documents from more than 40 stakeholders.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There were more than 1,000 users working in a coordinated fashion from the design phase through to construction and handover to the owner-operator.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Rail &amp; Transit<\/h3>\n<p>The Skanska Costain STRABAG (SCS) joint venture won the Advancements in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/bim-news\/digital-rail-transit\/46068\/\">Rail &amp; Transit<\/a> Award for its work on the HS2 high-speed rail project.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-49615 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards-3-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards-3-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards-3-768x430.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards-3-696x390.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards-3-750x420.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards-3.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>The \u00a356bn scheme, which will connect London with Manchester and Leeds via Birmingham, is one of the most challenging and complex ever undertaken in the UK and is the most expensive construction project in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>The SCS JV is working on Phase One of the scheme linking London and Birmingham, which includes around 200km of new high-speed rail and four new stations across seven main works civil contracts. It also includes three separate enabling works contractors and six route-wide systems contracts, in addition to new rolling stock.<\/p>\n<p>To meet its timescales, SCS used Bentley\u2019s OpenRail solution, comprising applications and services for the planning, engineering, project delivery and operations of rail and transit infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>OpenRail\u2019s foundation, Bentley\u2019s Connected Data Environment (CDE), provides the team with trusted information whenever and wherever it is needed. In combination with other integrated applications, including OpenRail Designer, OpenRoads and OpenBuildings Designer, it is automating previously manual processes in the engineering and design of portals, tunnels, ventilation shafts, retaining structures and earthworks.<\/p>\n<p>This is helping SCS realise a number of digital advances, including:<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-49616 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards-4-300x163.jpg\" alt=\"Year in infrastructure awards\" width=\"300\" height=\"163\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards-4-300x163.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards-4-768x416.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards-4.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards-4-696x377.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Year-in-infrastructure-awards-4-775x420.jpg 775w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Deliverables management:<\/strong> Enabling the coordination of files and data within the team and with other stakeholders, including Network Rail, London Underground and Crossrail.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Clash resolution:<\/strong> Crucial to the successful detection and resolution of major interface areas early enough to avoid them becoming an issue on-site and saving an estimated \u00a31m to date.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Design review:<\/strong> Leveraging Bentley\u2019s iModel technology to reduce the time needed for design review by 20%, resulting in estimated savings of \u00a3500,000.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Estimating:<\/strong> Direct use of engineering models for the estimating process has more than halved the time needed and used 75% less resources than planned versus traditional methods, leading to a saving of more than \u00a3300,000.<\/p>\n<p>With OpenBuildings Designer being used as the principal modelling application due to its data group and information management properties, the team is thinking about the future operation and maintenance of the railway.<\/p>\n<p>By linking asset information directly to the design model, SCS is enabling discussions with operators and maintainers to happen much earlier on with a project of HS2\u2019s size and complexity, allowing different stakeholders to comment on the design and change elements that they feel will make a tangible contribution to the safe and efficient running of the network.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUsing Bentley solutions has allowed us at SCS to realise our mission statement of creating a project that will be seen as the Digital Blueprint of Future Infrastructure Projects,\u201d said Peter Ruff, head of BIM for SCS.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey have allowed us to create, manage and leverage intelligent BIM models and the data housed within them on a complex project, and see a significant increase in productivity, efficiencies and collaboration between a large team and a multi-staged contract.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>BIM Today<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tel: 0843 504 4560<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:info@pbctoday.co.uk\">info@pbctoday.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\">www.pbctoday.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Twitter:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PBC_Today\">@PBC_Today<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Year in Infrastructure 2018 Awards celebrated extraordinary work in the design, construction and operations of infrastructure around the world.

When she\u2019s not working hard on cranking out first-class content for our online viewers to enjoy, she\u2019s keeping our social media lively and up to date\u2026 you could call her a social media guru? We\u2019re sure she\u2019d like that. With a BA in English and Journalism, Steph isn\u2019t fazed by attention to detail; on the contrary, she enjoys getting her teeth into a good article. In her downtime Steph loves nothing more than getting together with friends to enjoy a few (several) gin and tonics. Think you\u2019ve got some content Steph would be interested in?
