    Description

    This session presents a real-world tunnel infrastructure project that leveraged parametric design to reduce construction risk and improve coordination. A parametric adaptive ring family, developed in collaboration with Autodesk, served as the base for a modular tunnel model in Revit. Using Dynamo, both primary and secondary structures were generated, and system layouts were added for space proofing. The model was then integrated into Construction Cloud to support cross-disciplinary collaboration between structure, MEP, and design teams. This connected workflow improved communication, reduced errors, and supported earlier decision-making. Attendees will discover a scalable strategy for managing complexity in linear infrastructure projects and see how parametric design helps create robust, coordinated models ready for execution.

    Key Learnings

    • Build and apply an adaptive Revit family for modular tunnel design, developed in collaboration with Autodesk
    • Implement parametric modeling of linear infrastructure using Dynamo
    • Coordinate interdisciplinary designs inside a tunnel model using Construction Cloud
    • Identify how parametric workflows can reduce design errors and mitigate construction risks
