BIM Infrastructure Design

• BIM

Collaboration / Sharing / Design validation / Integrating various elements of design

• What are we delivering

3D Designs with intelligence

Sharing information

• How are we delivering

Listening to and working with industry

Building BIM solutions

Integrating with other design tools

• A BIM Workflow

•Conversion of 2D into 3D models •Drawings

•PDF’s

•Dynamic updating

•Contours / Levels / Sections

•Grids of levels

•Interrogate multiple surfaces

•colour coded cut / fill depths

•Construction build ups

•User defined material libraries / build ups

•Earthworks optimisation / Cut and fill

•Through multiple strata

•To a datum

•Borehole modelling

•AGS or user input

PDS Volumetrics

•Interactive horizontal and vertical design

•Automatic vertical alignment design

•Based on user defined parameters

•Dynamic alignment editing

•Change the design at any stage in the process

•Violation checks

•Against design parameters

•Varying width carriageways

•Single / dual

•Freeform

•Edit at any stage of the design

•3D junctions / t-heads

•Full cross-section definition

•User defined annotation ‘styles’

•Design and setting out reports

PDS Vehicle Path Analysis

• All of the required DfT diagrams • Defined marking parameters obeyed

• Dynamic placement tools / In place editing

• Line, Object, Text , Hatch objects

• Custom line style library

• Specials may be added to a library

• User definable text

• Ideal for one off situations and dual text requirements

• Annotation

• Automatically recognises diagram characteristics

• Automatically updates if the markings change

• Quantification

• Automatically measures all markings

• Output table automatically updates

• BIM Ready markings

• Automatically projects markings onto the surface

• Created as solids for use in Navisworks

• Attribute data carried over into Navisworks

• Flexibility • Drag and drop legend, symbols,

• Dynamic automatic vertical spacing

• 2 symbols & plate on a map symbol exit arm

• Alignment tools

• Optimisation of flag sign size

• Support for the popular passive posts • Lattix, Spectralyte, Jerol, FSP

• Post and Foundation design to EN12899 • Guides the user

• Foundation/Post detailed drawing

• Fully dimensioned drawing output

• Sloping or level ground

• Combined or individual bases

• Plan siting • Thumb nails on the plan

• Visibility checks in 3D

• Sign schedules
