HS2’s Learning Legacy Podcast is a five-part series exploring the Learning Legacy programme.
HS2 is one of the most complex and challenging railway scheme the UK has ever undertaken. As such, it has been generating vast amounts of data across the board. Every geological survey, every design, every site, every environmental survey, all generating more and more data.
So with all this data, what do you do with it?
The final episode of the Learning Legacy Podcast looks at how HS2 has been using their data to build more detailed models, advance approaches to work and better equipment that can provide greater insights into the world of construction engineering.
Featuring:
Roberto Alberola – TYPSA, Head of BIM and Digital
Peter Ruff – SCS, Head of BIM
Jonny Neville – Mott Macdonald, Engineering Geologist and Information Manager
Idarousse Mouhtar – BBV, Senior Materials Engineer
Dr Anne-Marie Imafidon MBE - Social Entrepreneur and Computer Scientist
Roberto and Peter dive into the creation of a digital version of the project using Building Information Modelling (BIM) and ensuring there is a single point of truth so all designers and contractors along the length of the project are on the same page.
Jonny and Idarousse talk through the process of earthworks excavation by using a new 3D GeoBIM model which allows for more advanced ground investigation surveys. Further pushing the importance of the planning process before putting a spade in the ground.
Dr Anne-Marie closes out the series with an extract from her speech given at HS2’s Learning Legacy Live event. Highlighting having a growing mindset, experimenting along with learning from our actions and asking “how” we do things.
