Zusammenfassung: | Designing and modeling tunnels are a complex and labor‐intensive process, exacerbated by the involvement of multiple designers and software applications to accommodate diverse geometric and subsurface conditions. This often results in reduced efficiency, productivity, and increased potential for errors. To address these challenges, the authors implemented a strategy integrating building information modeling and mathematical relationships governing tunnel geometries and rock support elements. Using Autodesk Revit, they developed a prototype that allows designers to model tunnels aligned with ground conditions without reliance on multiple software applications. This streamlined approach enhances productivity, simplifies complexities, and improves accuracy in tunnel design and review processes, including quantity take‐offs. A case study comparing the prototype with conventional methods demonstrated significant improvements in efficiency, productivity, and design accuracy. This research offers practical benefits to stakeholders in tunnel projects, optimizing work quality, and outcomes in tunnel design and construction. |
