WisDOT Implementation of 3D Technology & Methods in Design & Construction 2009 Contractor/Engineer Conference WTBA & WisDOT January Jerry H. Zogg, P.E., WisDOT

3D Implementation WisDOT has worked on a number of 3D initiatives for several years: Some were recognized as being directly related to 3D technology Others were not Hasn’t been much of a coordinated effort

3D Implementation Recent prominent initiatives: 3D Design process including selection of Civil 3D as design software –State-of-the-art 3D dynamic modeling capabilities GPS machine guidance for grading –statewide option for 2009

3D Implementation Recently realized need for a more comprehensive/coordinated effort –A number of related & supporting initiatives –Implementing 3D technologies is a national trend Many engineering & construction benefits A number of challenges & issues Have a project underway to develop an overall implementation plan

3D Implementation Project Participants: Principle Investigator: –Alan Vonderohe,CMSC Advisory Group: –WisDOT –WTBA –ACEC Workshop Attendees

3D Implementation Conducting Project in 2 Phases: Phase 1:Preliminary Study (April – Oct 2008) Phase 2:Develop Prioritized Plan (Nov – April 2009)

3D Implementation Activities in each Phase: Develop Vision & Objectives Perform Research Prepare Interim Report Conduct Workshop Complete Final Report

Phase 1 - Preliminary Study Title: Implementing Digital Terrain Models (DTM) for Construction Plans & Determining Earthwork Quantities Vision: Adoption of 3D methods and seamless data flows throughout initial survey, design, contracting, construction, as-built survey, and payment processes. Objectives: – Identify institutional issues, relevant design and construction work processes, consequences, and legal issues associated with realizing the vision. –Suggest strategies for addressing the issues.

Stakeholder Workshop September 18, 2008 Workshop Objective : –Provide a forum for participation by the stakeholder community in achieving study objectives. Breakout sessions: –3D model content, format, and security. –DTM data collection and data quality. –Impacts, training, and communication. –Implementation planning.

Where We Are And Where We Want To Be Current Future The Vision Goes Even Further

Oct. 22 Adv Group Meeting Agenda & Outcome Agenda Review Workshop outcomes from Each Breakout Session Develop recommendations for the final report and determine the path forward. Outcome Expand the vision statement Develop a high-level implementation plan

Phase 2 - Implementation Plan 3D Technologies & Methods for Design & Construction Advisory Group Meetings November 17, 2008 December 17, 2008 January 20, 2009

3D Imp Plan - Phase 2 Vision and Scope Vision: –Adoption of 3D methods and seamless data flows throughout initial survey, design, contracting, construction, as-built survey, payment, and other applications included within the infrastructure lifecycle. Scope: –Design and construction along with identification of links to operations, maintenance, and planning.

3D Imp Plan - Phase 2 Objectives Develop a prioritized implementation plan to move WisDOT toward the vision Focus plan on 3D initiatives within WisDOT Link Sept Workshop Issues & Outcomes to those initiatives

3D Imp Plan - Phase 2 Adv Group Activities To accomplish Phase 2 Objectives, Adv Group working to initially: Identify 3D initiatives –Currently underway –New Determine topics to be addressed with each initiative Develop other implementation recommendations

3D Imp Plan – Phase 2 Six Initiatives: 3D Design Process Automated Machine Guidance Height Modernization Project (HMP) & Continuously-Operating Reference Stations (CORS) Original Ground DTM Inspection & Final Quantities Post Construction Uses of 3D As-Builts

3D Design Process

GPS Machine Guidance

Height Modernization Project (HMP) Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORS)

3D Imp Plan – Phase 2 Six Initiatives: 3D Design Process Automated Machine Guidance Height Modernization Project (HMP) & Continuously-Operating Reference Stations (CORS) Original Ground DTM Inspection & Final Quantities Post Construction Uses of 3D As-Builts

Implementation Plan Topics to be addressed for each 3D initiative : Status Issues Timeline & Expectations Level of Effort Benefits Relationships with other Initiatives Recommendations Short & Long Term Goals Stakeholders & Responsibilities Priority

3D Imp Plan – Phase 2 Recommend creation of Mgmt Task Force to: Monitor Initiatives & coordinate if necessary Create reporting structure Keep upper mgmt informed Advocate for overall effort Develop outreach mechanisms for internal & external stakeholders

Stakeholder Workshop February 17, 2009 Objectives: Obtain feedback on Draft Imp Plan from wide variety of stakeholders Conduct breakout session on post- construction activities: –Operations –Maintenance –Planning

3D Imp Plan - Phase 2 Completion March 18 - Advisory Group Meeting –Review outcomes of 2/17 Workshop –Finalize content of Implementation Plan March 31 – Complete Final Report –Combine findings: Phase 1 - Preliminary Study Phase 2 - Implementation Planning Effort April - Begin Reporting Out to DTSD Mgmt
