Real-life projects for an immersion in the heart of BIM

Joinville-le-Pont, June 24, 2024 - Trimble announces the winners of the Trimble Construction Awards, a competition for Structures and Fluid Networks construction projects realized with Trimble solutions: Tekla Structures, Trimble Nova, Stabicad and Trimble Connect. The excellence of the twenty-four projects in competition, from the classic to the most complex, confirms that virtual models improve and facilitate the entire construction process. Digital mock-ups are at the heart of the construction process, from design to completion on site.

The main criteria for judging projects were the use of digital mock-up and collaboration, constructability, consideration of carbon footprint reduction, innovative use of Trimble solutions and project originality. A "BIM Super Prize" was awarded to the best BIM project in all categories.

Super prix BIM, ASTREE - COLLÈGE ZAC BELCIER

A 3D rendering of a building's design, showing structural components, and overlayed with a blueprint of the building's interior systems.

The college accommodates no fewer than 700 students, and was designed to have a minimum carbon footprint. The entire project is based on interoperability between all the parties involved (BIM approach), with a specific and unique graphic charter for each party.
