Student: Corrèze Bridge, France
The winning student project is a design project for a bridge over the Corrèze river. A team of 6 students from the IUT du Limousin Civil Engineering Department worked for only 13 working days on the discovery of the bridge under construction as well as the concrete execution plans & mixed steel-concrete structure design. The team applied Tekla Structures to model the boom as built as well as the bridge, and scanned the boom to find missing dimensions, produced the reinforcement cage designs for the bridge supports (piers, abutments and deck). And finally, they presented the designs to the project engineer, manager and owner. The jury was impressed, saying: "There is a lot of new talent growing and entering the industry."
API Developer: ScaffPlan, Australia
The 2022 Tekla Global BIM Award for an API Developer went to ScaffPlan, for their ScaffPlan® system for scaffolding modeling built on top of Tekla Structures. Scaffplan utilized the full power of Tekla Structures, through the Tekla Open API, combined with ScaffPlan features, resulting in a solution that helps increase companies' ROI. A team of 5 developers worked on 3 million lines of code. The solution is a strong proof point of Trimble's platform strategy, aiming at 100 percent of the construction trades creating constructible information.
Special Recognition: E6 Ranheim-Værnes, Norway
The jury awarded special recognition for the E6 Highway project in Norway, a 23-kilometer highway expansion to improve traffic flow and safety. It comprises 240-meter bridges and 2 CIP concrete tunnel portals. The team consisted of ACCIONA Engineering, Ramboll, ACCIONA Construction, COWI, Statens Vegvesen (road authority) and Nye Veier (project owner). This is a true wide-scale BIM project from design to construction with digital information being central to decision making, collaboration (through Tekla Model Sharing), coordination as well as data exchange across teams and final handover for operations. Trimble Quadri® was the main coordination environment for model federation and interdisciplinary coordination. The jury highlighted the efficient use of IFC files and the use of Trimble Connect for the information exchange between structural, modeling, drafting and project coordination teams.
