Why 3D Utility Models?

Why 3D Utility Models?

• Constructability – 3D models facilitate efficient workflows for utility coordination:

– Dr. Ralph Ellis and Dr. Randolph Thomas, as part of NCHRP 2-24(12), found that the top five causes of construction delays were:

1. Utility Relocation Delays

2. Utility Delays due to differing site conditions

3. Permitting

4. Weather

5. Errors in Plans and Specifications

– Virginia DOT credits SUE with helping to reduce the time needed to design

highways from 5 years to 4 years.

– Florida DOT analyzed the use of SUE on major projects in Tallahassee and

Miami and found that it saved $3 in contractor construction delay claims for

every $1 spent for subsurface utility engineering

Utility Models from Survey

• “Survey” means anything located in the field and represented graphically after processing.

– Land Survey

– Geophysical methods such as SPAR and GPR

– Paper records reduced to graphics

• Utility profile defined by:

– The survey information (3D graphics)

– Drape on terrain at assumed depth

Build Hydraulic and 3D Models from External Sources

• Direct Import from:

– StormCAD, CivilStorm, SewerCADSewerGEMS (.stsw)

– SWMM V5

– LandXML

– MicroDrainage

– GEOPAK Drainage

– InRoads S&S

• MX Drainage

• Using Model Builder link/import from:

– Microsoft Excel

– Microsoft Access

– Text Files (.csv, .txt)

– ESRI (.shp)

– Bentley Map

Utility Models from GIS

• Make a new recording and augment dataset to retrieve some utilities from SHP.

• Manufacture a SHP file for GAS.

Design New and Relocated Utilities

WWW.BENTLEY.COM I © 2015 Bentley Systems,

New Utilities

• For relocation or extension

• Uses same workflows as existing utilities

• Except there is usually an additional step of designing a profile.

• Trench design defined by ITL template.

Modeling Storm and Sanitary Networks

• Inlets, headwalls and catch basins ruled to OpenRoads geometry and surfaces.

• Pipes ruled to the nodes.

• Multi-pipe profile runs

• Hydraulic properties linked into feature definitions.

Best Practices - Layout

• If you don’t know how to use Civil Accudraw, put it on your training list. It will make your life easier and OpenRoads more powerful

• When connecting pipes to headwalls, remember that the direction determines whether the headwall is an inlet or an outlet.
