Trimble.The Biden Administration has proposed a$2 trillion infrastructure investmentto address America’s aging and outdated infrastructure, with a significant portion of the bill earmarked for bridges and roads. But to build the sustainable infrastructure needed to reinvigorate America’s economy, the industry must work together more efficiently and productively than ever.

尽管可以在利益相关者,工作流程和项目数据之间进行弥补的技术,但施工中涉及的各个团队和流程都仍然很大程度上。工程师缺乏产生更具结构模型所需的细节并不罕见。或者对于承包商进行这些模型,接受沿着解决现场现场的方式的变化只是该过程的一部分。

但这些变化在复杂的努力,返工和浪费方面以显着成本。他们创造了效率低下的涟漪效果,最终导致预算和计划过度困扰该行业。据建筑业学院介绍,12.4%的基础设施建设项目成本返工,而且新利18备用官网登录transportation construction projects平均延迟2.3岁。


Digital As-Builts: Improving the Efficiency & Sustainability of Civil Construction Projects

For infrastructure assets to be produced efficiently and sustainably,more collaboration among construction stakeholdersis needed, and project data must be centralized and accessible by all teams. This is already achievable through technology and is being encouraged by organizations like the Federal Highway Administration (FHA).

在当前的一轮Every Day Counts program, the FHA promotes the use ofdigital as-builts,which requires all stakeholders to share a single, centralized 3D model where data is captured throughout the construction lifecycle. The result is a living, continuously current BIM model that extends beyond design to aid in planning and decision-making both during and after construction.

With a data-rich digital as-built, owners can access granular data, such as asphalt heights and the exact locations of drainage features, to optimize ongoing maintenance. The benefits of digital as-builts aren’t confined to operational improvements either. With reliable as-builts, engineers can design to a higher level of detail and produce more constructible models. And potential issues can be identified and resolved before they lead to costly rework or RFIs. This ultimately comes back to project owners in the form of more detailed information about the as-built asset, but also results in faster delivery, lower costs, and greater transparency throughout the project.

“Many times when we look at a project, whether it's in the pre-bid or post bid, if we had accurate digital as-builts from the previous work that was done in that area, it would help us plan our work, make things more efficient, eliminate conflicts and errors during construction, and really improve efficiency.”

–– Ryan Forrestel, President, Cold Spring Construction

Realize the Benefits of Collaboration with Connected Construction

通过增加的协作实现效率和可持续性改进是通过集成技术工具支持的连接施工方法来实现的。例如,使用acloud-based BIM collaborationtool like Trimble Quadri, all stakeholders are able to share access to the model. Instead of wasting time and money on rework, RFIs, and change orders, teams are able to work together efficiently and effectively.

Connecting Project Stakeholders


The digital as-built can also serve as the starting point for adigital twin, an exact digital replica of the physical asset. Dynamic and continuously updated with field data, a digital twin is a powerful tool that can be used for resource management, predictive adjustments, and progress monitoring. By providing deep insights into the field and asset performance, digital twins hold the key to unlocking the efficiency and sustainability gains needed to produce the infrastructure of tomorrow.

改进如此,正是需要解决基础设施挑战和未来机遇的必要条件。和那些愿意分解传统工作筒仓的人,并使所需的文化转变将获得奖励。
