Welcome to examples of Concrete Bridges (COB) ICDAS COB provides
› Addin for automatic model creation of BIM & FEM for Concrete Bridges where Revit and Lusas are default tools.
› Manuals of new methods for creation of bridges in Revit BIM, where automation and manual modification combined to design all cases of concrete bridges ICDAS COB applies Lusas to perform FEM verification for dimensions of the bridge. Revit BIM to outline all information including 3D, 2D sectional drawings, materials, quantities and so on. Further, by upload Revit model on Revit LIVE cloud service the users can experience the bridge in immersive visualization. Virtual Reality from Revit LIVE required HTC headset and VIVE software installed, graphics NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 or better. This page summarizes examples of ICDAS Concrete Bridges with links to details. There are three main options to create bridge in Revit and Lusas as listing below: Option 1. Revit Families & Lusas Option 2. Revit Civil Structures & Lusas Option 3. Revit Dynamo & Lusas The main difference between the options is how to use Revit, and thereby the different inputs to BIM model. ICDAS has unlimited opportunities to design bridge in Revit BIM, when automation and manual modification are combined. For Lusas model the input is fixed at Option1. Currently, automation of Lusas model is only available for rectilinear or circular arc alignment of the bridge. Refer Model description for further details. The three options of Revit model and Lusas model can be combined. E.g. the users create Revit model in Dynamo Option 3, and enter input for Lusas FEM at Option 1. List of Bridges Key Parameters |
