Case Study: Dalton Consulting Engineers achieves compliance for Taylors Road Retarding Basin with 12d Model from 12d Solutions

Dalton Consulting Engineers - Customer Case Study

Dalton Consulting Engineers, a civil engineering firm, faced the challenge of designing the Taylors Road Retarding Basin to meet Melbourne Water's strict 'Deemed to Comply' criteria. The complex design required achieving specific depth zones for optimal water treatment within the 16-hectare basin, a process that demanded numerous iterations to ensure compliance. They needed a stable and dynamic software platform from 12d Solutions to handle these repetitive design changes efficiently and to generate client-friendly approval documents.

Using the 12d Model software, the team at 12d Solutions created a detailed 3D model of the basin. They analyzed depths and slopes to ensure they met the criteria and used the software’s automation capabilities to quickly re-run the entire analysis after each design amendment. This solution from 12d allowed Dalton Consulting Engineers to efficiently achieve compliance, accurately calculate the area of each required zone, and produce the necessary visualizations for Melbourne Water approval.
