Liaoning Water Conservancy and Hydropower Survey and Design Research Institute was responsible for delivering the engineering design of the Dongtaizi Reservoir.
While your roles and responsibilities as a senior engineer in today’s fast-paced environment have likely not changed in context, the complexity is an entirely different challenge. Projects are in general, bigger, more costly and, given labor and supply chain challenges, more logistically demanding.
OpenRoads ConceptStation is a preliminary design application that empowers highway engineering professionals to create conceptual road and bridge designs.
POWERCHINA Hubei selected OpenBuildings Designer and OpenRoads for 3D modeling, as well as ProjectWise for collaborative design management.
The Longhua Guangsheng Aobao Wind Farm is in an area of Chengde in Hebei, China that has hilly, steep terrain and dense vegetation.
Hubei Electric Power Survey and Design Institute (HEPSDI) was retained to design and construct wind generating sets, pylons and bases, a booster station, and associated equipment for the CNY 435 million Macheng Caijiazhai Wind Farm.
city of Almaty, Kazakhstan Facts ProjectWise and Bentley’s open applications streamlined workflows and communication, optimizing scheduling across 500 worksites. Leveraging Bentley’s modeling and visualization software facilitated simultaneous design and construction. Project Bringing Gold Production into Kyrgyzstan To eliminate exporting ore for processing and enable gold production within Kyrgyzstan, a decision was made in 2018 to build a gold plant in the mountainous Talas region, nearby the Dzhamgyr mine. The USD 75 million project included constructing the main building, a crushing and screening complex, a laboratory, storage pond, tailings storage facility, poison and ore storage areas, shift camps for operating personnel, and new roadways and accesses. AAEngineering delivered the winning bid for this engineering, procurement, and construction project that was located in a dangerously seismic area. In addition to the altitude and seismicity complications, AAEngineering had to overcome technical, engineering, and coordination challenges, as well as meet strict environmental standards amid a short construction period and an ensuing global pandemic. “Without using ContextCapture and OpenRoads, it is difficult to imagine the possibility of designing the multistage construction sites, on-site engineering works, roads, and highway spirals.” Andrey AksyonovDirector of Information Modeling DepartmentAAEngineering Group Solution Open Applications Provide Integrated Solution AAEngineering selected ProjectWise
AECOM used Bentley’s OpenRoads to create the longest cable-stayed bridge in North America, using digital workflows to reduce the overall design time by 12%
Using survey data in OpenRoads is often the fastest, easiest and most accurate way to create a terrain model that can be used by a design team to build a detailed model. Over the course of any modeling, many engineers will find the need to edit element data along the way. Within OpenRoads, there are multiple ways to edit observation data: graphically, through element properties and from within the data file. 1: Graphical Editing Graphical editing is the first and likely most obvious. Simply select the element that you would like to edit to see all of the element details including horizontal and vertical angles, slope distance and rod height, as well as the data file where the data is stored and the field book association. To edit, simply click on the slope distance or the angle—that change will be immediately visible in your model. https://youtu.be/fU7pVMRAJKk 2: Edit Observation Properties The second method is to use the Observation properties list visible in the table to the left. Just click on the property that needs adjustment such as a new number for rod height, horizontal angle, vertical angle, or slope distance for example. https://youtu.be/g0544HoUcjs 3: Drill into the Data File The
