Operational Impact
The use of computational design methodologies was integral to the detailed design development and documentation process of the Parramatta Square project. It allowed JPW to optimize digital workflows while maintaining flexibility and rigor across the project. Bentley’s integrated design solution facilitated accurate building design, including input and changes from contractors. Modeling the objects familiarized JPW with the spatial implications that are important to architectural design. By integrating color-coding for visual differentiation and scripting failure mechanisms into the data flow, JPW automated design verification, replacing manual methods of error-checking and eliminating the risk of human error. The digital twin facilitated design coordination, allowing the architects to identify and timely resolve inconsistencies, mitigating any negative financial and architectural impact, and avoiding rework. The success of this project has shifted the perspective on design, encouraging JPW to adapt this solution on future projects, reaping the benefits and optimizing delivery. | |
Quantitative Benefit
Bentley’s computational design application reduced modeling time for the façade panels from two weeks to less than one hour. | |
The interoperability of OpenBuildings Designer with Excel automated design processes to save significant time, resources, and costs. | |
Extracting data and documentation directly from the digital twin resulted in more accurate deliverables. | |
