Italferr Uses Digital Twins to Build Pergenova Viaduct in Genoa, Italy
Bentley Applications Automate Processes and Streamline Collaboration on Major EUR 200 Million Roadway
Rebuilding a Key Bridge On August 14, 2018, a 210-meter section of the 1,182-meter Morandi Bridge over the Polcevera River in Genoa, Italy suddenly collapsed, destroying buildings below and resulting in casualties and injuries. Since the bridge was part of a key roadway, it was vital to Genoa’s well-being. To avoid long-term impacts to the area, local offi cials tasked Italferr to create a new span while adhering to a tight three-month schedule.
Connecting Participants with Digital Twin Italferr established an open, connected data environment using Bentley’s ProjectWise to manage the fl ow of multidiscipline data, emphasizing collaboration. Using MicroStation, OpenRoads, and OpenBuildings Designer, they defi ned basic criteria to create and curate a digital twin. Computational modeling with a minimized set of information allowed them to create 4D scripts in SYNCHRO, automating processes that were once manual. Another set of scripts within OpenBuildings Designer allowed designers to automatically place diaphragms on the project’s main metal deck.

» Various disciplines contributed to a single federated iModel, improving clash detection and ensuring a single source of truth.
» Creating effi cient operational methods within a BIM environment enabled Italferr to reduce design costs, accelerate design decisions, increase accuracy, and improve communication.
» As a result, Italferr reduced system variants and improved the overall design of the bridge.
“The BIM methodology used in this
project follows the digital twin approach. The visibility and insight that it enabled allowed us to signifi cantly change the way in which we deal with the design and management of infrastructure work.”
Daniela Aprea, BIM Manager, Italferr S.p.A.
