displayed on a tablet. The project was characterized by the high level of detail
of the model (LOD400) with highly-detailed steel structures and precast
concrete elements.
Sports & Recreation Projects Category: Al Hudayriyat Island Velodrome, U.A.E.
The winner of the Global BIM Award in the Sports & Recreation Projects
category is the Al Hudayriyat Island Velodrome in UAE. This new cycling track
has seating for over 3,500 spectators. ASSENT Steel Industries LLC and
Ramboll cooperated on the design of this indoor cycle arena featuring unique
elliptical fins and sawtooth cladding on the facade out of aluminum profiles with
vision and spandrel glass.
The project met BEP and LOD300 requirements by using a combination of
Tekla Structures and Autodesk Revit® in tandem. The Tekla software was used
for the connection design, detailing, fabrication and erection and facilitated
cooperation between disciplines like facade, RCC and MEP, enhancing
communication and reducing errors through its 3D modeling capabilities. The
Tekla software assisted in managing the complex presetting of the more than
2,500 meters of roof, ensuring the right camber after erection.
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-functional metro station and in between two
buildings. This took strong collaboration and coordination between Ramboll as
the main structural engineer and Peikko (the steel frame producer). The team
applied laser scanning for the initial design and on-site comparison of the as-
built situation with the data model in Tekla Structures. The model was shared
between the two companies using Tekla Model Sharing and used in a 'live'
situation, 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-
time, requiring a lot of coordination work, which was also model-based. The
