Trimble Announces 2024 Tekla Global BIM Awards Winners - MarketScreener
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 team applied
®
Deltabeam Green beams, and recycled 95% of demolition waste on-site to further the
sustainability aspect (striving for a LEED Platinum and Well certification).
Small Projects Category: Te Veld Modular Homes, The Netherlands
The residential project 'Te Veld Modular Homes' from The Netherlands is the winner in
the Small projects category. The project revolves around designing and engineering a
