Trimble\u00a0has\u00a0announced the winners of its 2022 Tekla\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0Global Building Information Modeling (BIM) Awards. The overall winner for the best\u00a0BIM\u00a0project of 2022 is T2 Alliance, for their Helsinki Airport expansion project.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In this biennial competition, the world\u2019s most impressive structural construction projects that use Tekla solutions are judged in eight categories. The criteria the projects are judged on include Use of\u00a0BIM\u00a0and Collaboration, Innovative Use of Tekla software, Constructibility, Environmental Benefits and Cool Factor.<\/p>\n

Best\u00a0BIM\u00a0Project: T2 Alliance, Helsinki Airport,\u00a0Finland<\/h2>\n

The 103,000 square-meter extension to the existing Helsinki Airport is the winner in the Public category and the Best\u00a0BIM\u00a0project of the 2022 Tekla Global\u00a0BIM\u00a0Awards. This approximately\u00a01-billion-europroject was a cooperation between Ramboll Finland, Finavia Corporation, SRV Rakennus, ALA Architects Ltd, Arkkitehtitoimisto HKP, and Gravicon.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The project entails a new 450,000 square-meter apron, 16 new wide-bodied plane parking positions, and 4,800 new parking spaces for cars. Finavia, the owner of the project, achieved the BREEAM Excellent sustainability certification.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0BIM-based collaboration throughout the project was instrumental to the success of the project. All 100-200 engineers and building product manufacturers modeled their products digitally. The contractors orchestrated the use of over 400 high level-of-detail models in the project using 30 BIM-related software products.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis project showcased such a strong way of collaborating and building things digitally and then creating the physical twin. It demonstrated innovation and re-engineering the processes for the benefit of all the different stakeholders,\u201d said jury member\u00a0Salla Eckhardt<\/strong>, director of Digital Building Lifecycle & Innovation at Microsoft.<\/p>\n

As the winning team, T2 Alliance will present its Helsinki Airport project at\u00a0Dimensions+\u00a02022<\/a>, the Trimble User Conference taking place in\u00a0Las Vegas,\u00a0November 7-9, 2022.<\/p>\n

International Competition<\/h2>\n

What started as a regional drawing contest in 1999, has grown into an internationally recognized competition in the field of structural engineering. Teams from across the globe working on some of the world\u2019s most challenging projects compete on the basis of the best or most innovative use of\u00a0BIM\u00a0and digital technologies in structural engineering. Over 132 projects were entered in this year\u2019s competition, which included winners of regional Tekla\u00a0BIM\u00a0Awards from 37 countries.<\/p>\n

The projects are judged by an international jury consisting of industry experts\u00a0<\/p>\n
