Case Study: Arup streamlines Olympic Village utility design with 12d Model

Arup - Customer Case Study

Arup, a global engineering firm, was tasked with the detailed civil design for the London 2012 Olympic athletes' village. The challenge involved designing earthworks, utilities, drainage, and roads for a highly constrained site under an extremely tight deadline, requiring a process that could rapidly incorporate stakeholder changes and avoid construction clashes. To meet this challenge, Arup implemented 12d Solutions' 12d Model software instead of its standard platform.

The solution from 12d Solutions involved using 12d Model to automate manual tasks, produce fast conceptual designs, and easily implement changes. This allowed for comprehensive 3D modelling of all subsurface utilities and infrastructure, enabling design optimization and clash detection. As a result, 12d Model sped up the entire design cycle, streamlined existing processes, and ensured the complex project was completed successfully and on schedule.
