Tunnel Design Software
Increase Productivity up to 50% with OpenTunnel
Intuitive purpose-built tunnel modeling software that is fully interoperable with analysis and design
WHAT IS OPENTUNNEL DESIGNER?
OpenTunnel Designer is the first and only purpose-built software for tunnel modeling and design. Get the right tools for the job and say goodbye to unnecessary rework and time delays with all team members now working in one intuitive application.
OpenTunnel Designer is the first and only purpose-built software for tunnel modeling and design. It introduces a single common data environment so all project stakeholders can reliably consume and share up-to-date data. Easily exchange information with Leapfrog, PLAXIS®, OpenRoads™, OpenRail™, OpenBridge®, and ProStructures to identify errors early and create alternatives for optimum design, safety, and performance.
INCORPORATE ALL YOUR DATA
Enhance your project’s decision-making process by efficiently integrating, arranging, and overseeing geotechnical and existing conditions data without compromising precision. Seamlessly access soil strata and linear infrastructure data. Incorporate road and rail corridors, as well as bridge structures, into your OpenTunnel Designer model. Import soil meshes swiftly using IFC versions 4.0 and 4.3.
MODEL, SIMULATE, AND DETAIL TUNNEL CONSTRUCTION
- Create a comprehensive representation of the excavation shape, excavation tracks, and the tunnel lining and reinforcement for both conventional and mechanized tunnels.
- Generate models of interior objects that will be extended along the length of the tunnel or placed as cells along a designated path, such as sidewalks, ducts, cable trays, and more.
- Increase efficiency by saving valuable design time as any edits made will automatically update in visualizations, plan production, and quantities reports.
- Develop detailed models and specifications for the rebar reinforcement in the tunnel lining. Utilize the OpenTunnel lining model in ProConcrete to ensure that any changes in the tunnel lining geometry are accurately reflected in the reinforcement data and deliverables.
PERFORM GEOTECHNICAL ANALYSIS
Increase efficiency and save valuable time by generating numerous analytical models within minutes instead of days. Just indicate the stations for the cross section to establish the foundation of your 2D analytical model, or effortlessly transfer complete tunnels from your 3D BIM model to PLAXIS with a simple click, eliminating the need for coding.
TUNNEL DRAWINGS AND REPORTS
Streamline your plan production procedure with ease. OpenTunnel Designer offers robust drawing production tools that enable the creation of plans, profiles, and cross-section drawings effortlessly. Stay on top of your projects by generating tunnel-specific reports that reflect the most recent updates, ensuring accurate costing and quantities.
