TECHNICAL INNOVATION- Eastlink DANDENONG TEAM
• CaddPro- (Drafting Productivity)• MStn V8 (Standardise CAD Platform)• Integrated Seamless Environment• 3D Environment• Bridges in 3D• InRoads Smarts• Storm and Sanitary• MX “I feel like they are going to take my nail gun away
and replace it with a hammer ”
CaddPro Drafting Productivity Gains
• Drafting
– Manages• Scales for Text, dimensions, title sheets• Cell libraries for disciplines- eg structural Steel Profiles• Patterning• Creation of CAD documents• Title Sheet Placement and provides tagged data linkage to Excel• Plotting
– Automates• PDF Issue and .csv file creation• Pram Crossing Drafting & Type• Batter Tic Placement• Curve Setting Out Data Extraction• 3D Bridge Modelling• Resheeting of Roads
Adoption of Standard CAD Platform
• Agreed at Outset to adopt MStnV8
• Why?– Standard exchange of files with VicRoads– Provides a standardised and controlled environment– Delivers a user friendly 3D environment– Provides Superior Referencing and Mapping Power– Draws from major pool of local drafting resources– Technical exchange & share of best practice information– Increased Customisation provides improved drafting power & efficiencies– Mixed platforms historically proved not to work well
• Conversions are imperfect• Breaks down the sharing of live data• Controlled data• Consumes valuable time due to handling
– Client directed– It does have the ability to read/ write to ACAD if required but not vice versa– Proven track record
InRoads Smarts & Strengths
MStn Civil
InRoads Storm & Sanitary
MStn 3D
InRoads Smarts
• Provides a seamless 3D CAD design environment
• Advanced Feature Modelling
• Controlled Use of Feature Names
• Horizontal and Vertical Controls for Main for interior Backbone
• Decision Tables for Exterior Backbone– By feature xyz– By Feature xy– By grade– By Vertical Alignment– By Horizontal Alignment
• Feature Editing
• Graphical Based Modelling
• Cross Section and Profile Updating
What did not work well
• Project Basis- No Total Document Management System• Uncoordinated planning packages- Separating The Bridge team
from the Road Design Team• Non integrated environments- Giving work out to be undertaken in
other packages and then bringing it back• Giving out bridges to be done in 2D and ACAD• Lack of ownership and degradation of the survey• Overuse of Nested Reference Files• Conversions of Files
What worked Well• Setting up of Project Drafting Standards• Customization and Configuration of MStn• Seamless Design Environment- MStn, InRoads and Storm & Sanitary• 3D Modelling Environment- Road, Walls, Services, Bridges• Training of ACAD users to MStn• Issue of 3D Electronic Data for Construction• Careful selection of qualified staff from outset of the project
Bridges in 3D
• Exchange of 3D MStn Files• Road Surface Defined• 3D Beams assisted by CaddPro• Abutment Sills Wingwalls in 3D• 3D Data Checked back in InRoads
DTMS• Piles & Abutment Outlines Produced
as non-triangulable features in InRoads
• Clearance Diagrams Produced• Isopach Checks Confirmation
