Federated CAD Modeling in Rail Projects: Managing Multidiscipline Data in a Single Environment
This webinar is designed for BIM modelers, digital coordinators, and project managers who want to streamline coordination across disciplines using a federated 3D CAD modeling approach.
We'll explore how CAD platforms, such as MicroStation, support efficient collaboration by referencing multiple discipline-specific models into a single, federated environment. Learn how to link civil, structural, and MEP designs, optimize model performance, and avoid clashes—without compromising model integrity or speed.
What you will learn:
Understand the difference between federated and monolithic CAD models, and why federation is essential for large-scale rail projects. Discover strategies for integrating track, bridge, tunnel, station, and utility models into a single coordinated 3D environment. Explore performance optimization techniques including level filters, display rules, and selective model loading for working with large datasets.
