Bridge + Infrastructure Modeler

The only solution for BIM design of bridges and tunnels in Autodesk® Revit®

The SOFiSTiK Bridge + Infrastructure Modeler is your powerful extension for Autodesk® Revit® for modeling axis-based, parametric bridge and tunnel structures in 3D. In all design stages engineers will benefit from the comprehensive functionalities to generate any component of an infrastructure project. Special workflows help to create specific element, such as rebars and prestressing tendons.
The superior parametric technology combined with the adaptability to local and company standards and flexible exchange formats make the
SOFiSTiK Bridge + Infrastructure Modeler (SBIM) your ideal BIM solution for safe, fast and open design and modeling of bridges and tunnels in Revit®.

Your benefits at a glance

Safe

With superior parametric technology,
you reliably receive consistent data for safe design throughout the entire project processing period, even in the event of changes.

Features that make the SBIM your reliable tool:

Fully parametric for axis, superstructures, substructures and bridge equipment
Modelling of axis-based rebars and prestressing tendons
Quantification / QTO tools allow you to extract the length, area and volume data from created and placed components
3D modeling of all bridge types:
e.g., (multi-girder) beam bridges, box girder bridges, precast bridges, arch bridges and truss bridges

Fast

The parametric input option of the SOFiSTiK Bridge + Infrastructure Modeler allows for variation studies, which significantly accelerate your bridge and tunnel design process.

Features that make the SBIM your efficient tool:

Effortlessly create bridge sub- and superstructure components using parametric profiles and axis geometry
Numerical and geometrical parametrization methods, that support the generation of complex geometries
Automatic generation of section views and plan views as well as longitudinal section representation with vertical alignment information
User friendly interface with easy access to definitions and effortless data management

Open

Sophisticated exchange formats allow you to work with external axis data and transfer relevant data directly to the calculation software. You remain flexible and BIM-compliant in your overall project planning.

Features that make the SBIM your flexible tool:

Create 3D bridge axis using alignment information, imported external files (e.g. Civil 3D, LandXML) or tables with coordinate points
Import digital terrain models in LandXML format and generate volumes out of this terrain
Transfer of infrastructure model between projects
Easy export of the most important bridge data to the SOFiSTiK calculation software
