Big One is one of the most famous roller coasters in the UK. Taziker Industrial has won the 2021 Tekla BIM Award for its 9 Way Change Project. This included working with Westlakes Engineering’s dynamics engineers to go through the tunnels and modify the tracks for a smoother ride. Faced with complex geometry, the team used point clouds to define the geometry of existing paths, which were then exported to improve the design and re-imported for new line designs and final modeling. Tekla Structures and its various tools such as point cloud import, layout manager and Grasshopper® linking capabilities, as well as the ability to check back with a total station to validate the final geometry, were key to the success of this project. The jury commented: “A project like this raises the bar for the industry as a whole.”
