  Efficient change management for major project through digital shaft twins

  Every major project has a significant challenge. How to manage and implement change! Engineers make decisions based on multi-disciplinary input and efforts. Compressed programs require parallel design development. The change management approach influences how you price, design, and manage project delivery within budget. In most cases, shaft configurations are standardized to ensure consistent operation and maintenance procedures, allowing for the development of task sequences that minimize the level of effort required for each modification. This paper describes engineering workflows using digital twins to achieve optimized and detailed shaft designs. The approach utilizes Autodesk Revit and Robot Structural Analysis collaboration using Dynamo scripts and accessing API interfaces through Python programming. We manage engineering input and decisions with a single spreadsheet, scripting then generates our digital twins. The first model output includes all BIM parameters, schedules with concrete and mapped reinforced steel quantities. The second model output uses the same unique geometry while considering all structural load cases and load combinations required for detailed design. We receive a BIM model, dynamically linked drawings, and autogenerated structural reports for deliverables, thus minimizing possible errors and inaccuracies, which may occur with manual modelling. Furthermore, these deliverables can be regenerated efficiently as change happens.
