Novapoint offers new road design program

Norway's Novapoint has released the server-side version of its new object-based road design software, QuadriDCM, which it says will effectively integrate BIM-based interdisciplinary working methods over the internet. The software works in conjunction with the Novapoint 19 DCM road design suite and allows cloud-based design work by multiple users. Engineers check out a portion of a 3D model directly and work on it so that, "…the intelligent model becomes the central information carrier of all infrastructure

RSSNorway's 357 Novapoint has released the server-side version of its new object-based road design software, QuadriDCM, which it says will effectively integrate BIM-based interdisciplinary working methods over the internet. The software works in conjunction with the Novapoint 19 DCM road design suite and allows cloud-based design work by multiple users. Engineers check out a portion of a 3D model directly and work on it so that, "…the intelligent model becomes the central information carrier of all infrastructure data throughout its whole lifetime," said the company which sees its system as one of the first true BIM systems in the road and rail sector.

    Trimble is taking the concept of the building information model (BIM) one stage further with its development of its construction continuum concept. This is intended to show the process and benefits to building a construction-ready model embedded with intelligent data. Such a model can serve as the basis for how contractors plan and execute construction projects. With intelligent modeling, users can add and remove information in real time while simultaneously looking at multiple ways to perform construction
