expansion of one of the oldest family breweries in Belgium started with a 3D scan, genera ng a high-density point
cloud to iden fy poten al conflicts and fine-tune the model throughout the project. This was crucial, especially

given the need to par ally preserve and reconstruct the building’s facade.
The model, generated in Tekla Structures, was shared among the project stakeholders using Tekla Model Sharing.

Using Trimble Connect AR, the team ensured that all stakeholders could always access an up-to-date version and
view the model as an augmented reality overlay over the camera image displayed on a tablet. The project was
characterized by the high level of detail of the model (LOD400) with intricate steel structures and precast concrete

elements.
Sports & Recrea on Projects Category: Al Hudayriyat Island Velodrome, U.A.E.

The winner of the Global BIM Award in the Sports & Recrea on Projects category is the Al Hudayriyat Island
Velodrome in UAE. This new cycling track has sea ng for over 3,500 spectators. ASSENT Steel Industries LLC and

Ramboll cooperated on the design of this indoor cycle arena, featuring unique ellip cal fins and sawtooth cladding
on the facade out of aluminum profiles with vision and spandrel glass.

The project met BEP and LOD300 requirements, as it used a combina on of Tekla Structures and Autodesk Revit® in
tandem. The Tekla so ware was used for the connec on design, detailing, fabrica on and erec on and facilitated
coopera on among disciplines like facade, RCC and MEP, enhancing communica on and reducing errors through its

3D modeling capabili es. The Tekla so ware assisted in managing the complex prese ng of the more than 2,500
meters of roof, ensuring the right camber a er erec on.

Commercial Project Category: Lyyra, Finland
Ramboll Finland Oy, Ylva, Haahtela, Arco Architecture Company Oy and Byggnadsekonomi Oy were winners in the

Commercial category for their Lyyra project, a new block of real estate in the city center of Helsinki. The jury
especially valued the data-driven nature of the project and the fact that a new city block was built on top of a fully

func onal metro sta on and in between two buildings. This took strong collabora on and coordina on between
Ramboll as the main structural engineer and Peikko (the steel frame producer). The team applied laser scanning for
the ini al design and on-site comparison of the as-built situa on with the data model in Tekla Structures. The

model was shared between the two companies using Tekla Model Sharing and used in a ‘live’ situa on, with
workers on site having the models both on tablets or mobile phones and on paper.

Due to the limited amount of space on the job site, all deliveries were just-in- me, requiring a lot of coordina on
work, which was also model-based. The team applied Deltabeam® Green beams and recycled 95% of demoli on

waste on-site to further the sustainability aspect (striving for a LEED Pla num and Well cer fica on).
Small Projects Category: Te Veld Modular Homes, The Netherlands

The residen al project ‘Te Veld Modular Homes’ from The Netherlands is the winner in the small projects category.
The project revolves around designing and engineering a model of a temporary house. The house was designed
specifically for a residen al project encompassing a total of 700 semi-permanent homes. The homes feature a high

level of sustainability as they are prefab mber structures with some steel elements for structural rigidity.
All co-makers were an integral part of the design and produc on process. The plumbing and electrical installers

drew their installa on in the 2D model a er which the engineers from prefab builder Barli converted these to 3D
for the mber frame produc on using Tekla Structures. The design by LA Architecten allowed for rapid produc on
and also the delivery planning was op mized for the least waste and impact possible. The Tekla model even

included fall protec on during the factory assembly, slope insula on, kitchen cabinets and overflows.
