Bentley Software Saves BSIE CNY 2 Million on Xishi Winter Olympics Square Project - 1

Project Summary Organization Beijing Shougang International Engineering Technology Co., Ltd. Solution Government Location Shijingshan, Beijing, China Project Objectives • Redevelop an historic industrial zone as an 85,300-square-meter office plaza for the 2022 Winter Olympics Organizing Committee. • Establish data formats that can be exchanged throughout the project, then turn over the complete information to the owner for use in operation and maintenance. Products Used MicroStation®, ProjectWise®, Bentley Navigator, AECOsim Building Designer, Bentley Raceway and Cable Management, Descartes, PowerCivil for China, Bentley Map®, OpenPlant, Pointools, ProStructures Bentley Software Saves BSIE CNY 2 Million on Xishi Winter Olympics Square Project Collaborative BIM Processes Drive Redevelopment of an Historic Industrial Zone Fast Facts • ProjectWise provided a connected data environment, improving processes for collaboration and integration during design and construction. • BSIE applied Bentley's BIM technology throughout all phases of the project, which in turn allowed the project team to efficiently manage construction equipment and plan for workforce entry and exit from the site. ROI ProjectWise secured access to project information and helped avoid the inherent risk of data loss when exporting and importing between different file formats and applications. Bentley's BIM advancements reduced the modeling workload by roughly 10 percent and site planning time by 3 to 5 percent, saving nearly CNY 2 million. Offices for Olympic Organizers The 2022 Winter Olympics Organizing Committee contracted Beijing Shougang International Engineering (BSIE) to design and construct an office plaza in Shougang, an historic industrial park located in Shijingshan District, Beijing, China. The project called for innovative planning due to challenging site conditions and various regulations. Many of the original steel plants were protected, and strict requirements governed the height and architectural style of the buildings being redeveloped. The challenge was to develop an 85,300-square-meter plaza that met the committee's needs while complying with district regulations. BSIE is accomplishing the owner's vision by retaining the original structures, repurposing the space, and preserving the industrial aesthetics. BIM processes drove an integrated delivery method. Bentley's imaging and point-cloud technology reduced site planning time by 3 to 5 percent, saving about CNY 1 million. The use of Bentleys BIM technology reduced the modeling workload by roughly 10 percent, and the modeling costs by nearly CNY 1 million. Issues as Old as the Plant Xishi Winter Olympics Square is part of a demonstration project that is redeveloping several derelict steel plants for use as winter sports complexes. Located on the northern edge of Old Shougang Industrial Area, the 8-square-kilometer project site is adjacent to high-rise residential buildings and open public spaces. BSIE intended to transform a series of 100-year-old plant silos into a modern office complex that reflected the area's heritage and created an iconic image for the 2022 Winter Olympics. As the EPC contractor, BSIE performed site planning, surveying and mapping, as well as integrated design and construction, and operation and maintenance planning. The project objective was to develop an energy-efficient design that optimized construction quantities and ensured constructability. At the owner's request, BSIE planned to create data models for use during all stages of construction, then turn over the data to the owner for use in operation and maintenance. How to develop data that would satisfy the requirements for asset lifecycle information management was a major consideration. The project team needed a full understanding of the site conditions and status of the existing facilities to meet the design requirements and constraints. Given the age of the facilities, the team found that site conditions had changed compared to the original blueprints, and that blueprints were unavailable for many areas. In addition, long-dormant areas posed safety risks for surface and subsurface investigations. Incomplete and outdated information made structural analysis of the factory buildings a challenge. BSIE also found that the usual problems associated with a project of this size - such as interdiscipline synergy, and construction planning and logistics - posed bigger challenges considering the site's history. This project demanded innovative technology to overcome the constraints, limitations, and risks. Capturing Reality BSIE leveraged Bentley technology to gain understanding of the site and existing infrastructure, as well as to generate reality models for context. Using 3D laser scanning and modeling powered by Bentley Descartes, the team captured point-cloud data, integrated the data with blueprint information, and then used Pointools to perform a differential analysis of the two datasets. An efficiency analysis using custom mathematical modeling applications provided basic data on the structural strength of the facilities. GIS technology revealed the status of pipelines, and GEOPAK applied surveying and mapping data to simulate the site environment. In compliance with local regulatory requirements for green building projects, the BSIE project team implemented BIM technology at all stages of the project lifecycle. Bentley's 3D modeling applications (AECOsim Building Designer, ProStructures, OpenPlant, and Bentley Raceway and Cable Management) enabled BIM processes for buildings, structures, pipelines, and electrical systems. ProjectWise provided one source of multidimensional data to support collaboration for planning, design, procurement, construction,
