  1. Urban Transportation Design and Civil 3D: Real Projects, Real Challenges, and Real Solutions Rad Lazic Technical Consultant, Autodesk

  2. Real BIG projects use Civil 3D • Project 1: • A high-speed urban arterial highway. • Over $2 billon in construction costs. • Over 20miles (30 Km) of main highway design. • Dense access and feeder streets. • Over a dozen interchanges. • 40 bridges for construction or rehabilitation. • Complete reconstruction of a complex highway interchange. • Project 2: • Reconstruction of approaches to one of the world's famous bridges. • Through, above and under extremely sensitive urban areas. • Tunnel structure details shaped by complex roadway geometry .

  3. Project 1

  4. Project 2:

  5. Challenges • Timelines. • Large and diverse extended design team. • Extremely large data sets. • Project data coordination and team collaboration. • Revision cycles not synchronized across all disciplines (highways/utilities/structures). • Delivery of data for the construction. • Conflict identification. • Construction under minimum interruption of city traffic. • Quality control of the deliverables.

  6. What went wrong so far – the biggest losers • Rushed planning • Minimum to no implementation tasks completed in advance • No configuration kit for easy deployment • No documentation of what has been implemented

  7. The big winners • Customized templates and styles • Custom Subassemblies library • CAD Standards document • Critical workflows documents

  8. More winners (there are never enough) • Well established communication • Fine tuned design standards files • Custom Network Parts catalog • Knowledge sharing

  9. Solutions Implemented so far It starts with a commitment to utilize a BIM process. The complete civil design is done with 60 licenses of AutoCAD® Civil 3D® software, Autodesk’s BIM solution for civil engineering. • Implementation • Design and CAD Standards • CAD Management • Knowledge growth and management

  10. BIM? BIM is an integrated workflow that allows architects, engineers, and builders to explore a project digitally before it is built. Coordinated, consistent information is used throughout the project to: • Accurately visualize physical appearance • Simulate real-world performance • Create accurate production documentation

  11. How this works for yourprojects? • Integrated project model to support detailed design. • Efficient design evaluation and evolution. • Improved conflict identification and resolution. • Enhanced project documentation and visualizations. • Construction support: • Survey crews • Quantities • Machine control

  12. What implementation? • Data Sharing and collaboration. • Segmenting the project data. • Segmenting the design teams. • Coordination of design and CAD processes.

  13. Design and CAD Standards • Drawing Templates • Sheet Set Management • Customized Subassemblies • Generic Links subassemblies • Customized Network Parts

  14. Design and CAD Management • Developing detailed workflows. • COMMUNICATION with the extended team • Paper Production (external service) • Quality Control procedures • Electronic Deliverables (format, level of detail, signing)

  15. Knowledge growth and management • Consulting, Coaching, Mentoring • Management Development • Group development • Individual coaching • Team leadership mentoring • Gaining Efficiencies with Consulting Services and Training • Documentation development and distribution.

  16. THANK YOU!
