    This document discusses the Atlantic Bridge project over the Panama Canal. It describes how BIM modeling was used to review the baseline design for the bridge project. BIM identified potential issues in the design details, inconsistencies in drawings, and clashes between design elements. The modeling helped propose solutions and catch errors, improving constructability and preventing difficulties during construction. Lessons learned include the benefits of BIM for visualizing complex designs, integrating information across disciplines, and using it to avoid problems in the field.

    Objectives: Identify Potential Design Issues
    • Are the details buildable?
    • Is there sufficient information in the drawings?
    • Is the information consistent and correct?
    • Is there sufficient space between the elements to prevent clashes?
    • Are normal tolerances adequate?
    • If detail is not buildable what can be done to solve the problem?
