SOFiSTiK Bridge + Infrastructure Modeler, the tool that eases the challenging design of a pedestrian bridge for Basler & Hofmann engineering

The engineering, consulting and planning company Basler & Hofmann from Zurich, in collaboration with landscape architects DGJ Landscapes and Nau2 Architekten, won the project competition for the pedestrian link from St. Gallen's old town to the university district.

The required BIM model was developed using Autodesk® Revit®. The SOFiSTiK Bridge + Infrastructure Modeler (SBIM) and Dynamo®, a visual programming tool, were used for modelling the footbridge. This set of programs allowed them to quickly create a multitude of variants. The model now provides the basis for project planning, including cost estimation, tender documentation and time scheduling.
