Bentley Subsurface Utility Engineering for Civil Engineering (SUE)

Subsurface Utility Engineering for Civil Engineering (SUE) is the software based on the product OpenRoads, combines data from several sources and carries out geo-coordination, creating opportunities for three-dimensional underground modeling, control in an interactive mode and conflict resolutions in case of the crossed communications.

Possibilities of SUE provide creation of a powerful software platform with extensive information filling by means of which designing of intellectual models of underground construction sections of high accuracy in the 3D format is possible. It the risks connected with construction in the underground environments overloaded with communications decrease.

The main risks for those who are engaged in design are connected by construction and operation of infrastructure in the cities with the underground environment worldwide, developers consider - it is that sphere where the technologies of information modeling and information mobility promoting construction performance improvement, increasing reliability, security and stability of infrastructure resources gained the smallest development.

The software for laying of underground services provides use of new effective information modeling on a joint of disciplines. Its use will help project teams to gain a comprehensive impression about the conflicts of underground infrastructure and to resolve these conflicts more rationally and effectively.

SUE automatically creates 3D models based on data of field measurements, data from a CAD, GIS, spreadsheets of Excel and Oracle databases and also on information from other standard sources of information of specific industry. Besides, given software keeps in contact between the CAD and GIS utilities and traces components that guarantees that data are always synchronized and relevant.

Using functions of visualization and detection of the conflicts of SUE users can easily reveal and resolve the conflicts between the new and existing structural elements at a design stage. It helps to reduce risks during construction, reduces costs and promotes preserving of efficiency of resources.

SUE does possible multidirectional modeling, allowing users to combine active horizontal, profile projections and projections in section with innovative technology of modeling in 3D, and provides thereby an additional context for decision making. Additional functions of parametrical design Suevklyuchayut completely dynamic rules, the relations and restrictions which are built in modeling workflow. Result of the listed improvements - quality improvement of design is easy to create and compare the existing design options to the unique opportunities of optimization of engineering developments allowing users. Besides, possibilities of intellectual modeling in 3D correspond to the recommendations of the Federal road U.S. Administration of "MAP-21" concerning technology of modeling in 3D and virtual construction.
