Achieving high-difficulty construction in a short period! A case study of executing a project using BIM.
West Terminal 2 is a new ferry passenger terminal in Helsinki, Finland, completed in March 2017. The new terminal was designed with a focus on functionality to ensure smooth and efficient boarding and disembarking for passengers. Many stakeholders utilized BIM throughout the project, from design to manufacturing and construction, in pursuit of design and quality. BIM software was introduced for design, structure, and equipment design, and "Tekla Structures" was adopted for the design of the building, which features a geometric design including a curved roof, sloped canopies and facades, and tall glass walls. BIM is not only an excellent tool for adjusting various design requirements and achieving complex construction within a short timeframe, but the client also appreciates that it helped deepen the understanding of the design. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.
