Demolition is growth as it boots GDP Dutch firm Breijn used its BIM model for construction sequencing when designing a replacement railway bridge over the Linge River. “ProRail [the Dutch railway authority] wanted a cost-effective repla- cement bridge, with minimal disruption of rail service during its construction,” recalls Brejin senior designer Cristian Otter.

“With the help of BIM technolgy, we developed a design that met our client’s requirements for aesthetics, cost, and constructability.”

Breijn was given a tight 90 hour window for the bridge construction in which the rail service would be halted, the existing deck demolished, and new concrete decks placed on the bridge pillars. “We created as-is infrastructure models and to-be design models to help coordinate our design and simulate the demolition and recons- truction of the bridge,” says Breijn construction engineer Leo Molen- broek.

“When we ran a 4D simulation of these critical 90 hours, there were still some pieces of the old bridge just hanging there. We had forgotten some demolishing tasks on the schedule. Thankfully we were able to find and fix these types of issues before they impacted construction.”
