MLPL3 project: this multi-storey parking lot in Pune (India) is a multi-purpose building.
The complexity of this project, from design to construction of this multi-functional multi-storey parking lot, was absolutely unprecedented. The complex geometry of the project area and the profile of the terrain were two major challenges for the team. Added to this were the inclined grids and the multiple use of the building, which required special layouts on each floor.
"By using precast concrete elements, we enter the world of production and assembly virtually and in advance. To do this, we need design tools that are sufficiently powerful to generate precise calculations and drawings of the elements, their geometries, connections, reinforcing bars, anchoring elements, and so on.
In the case of the MLPL3 project, which was of unprecedented complexity, the various parties involved, well aware of the difficulties likely to be encountered in their respective disciplines, all agreed that 2D design software like AutoCAD would not suffice and that our only option, if we wanted to make this project a reality and a success, was to use Tekla, the BIM software with its 3D digital model."
