Connecting the Subsurface and Beyond: How Bentley Systems is Revolutionizing Infrastructure Collaboration
Infrastructure data has traditionally lived in silos—scattered across 3D models, PDF blueprints, inspection reports, field photos, and IoT sensors. For project teams, bringing these disparate pieces together has long been a complex and fragmented challenge. Addressing this industry-wide hurdle, Bentley Systems has announced the launch of Bentley Infrastructure Cloud Connect, a foundational new ...
Read MoreTransforming Infrastructure: How Bentley Systems is Spearheading the AI Revolution
As global urbanization accelerates and the demand for resilient infrastructure surges, the engineering capacity gap remains one of the industry's greatest hurdles. To address this challenge, Bentley Systems has unveiled a groundbreaking suite of next-generation, AI-powered capabilities designed to empower professionals rather than replace them. Grounded in real-world infrastructure context, these ...
Read MoreBentley announces the Bentley Technology Summit to be held in Toronto, Canada
As urbanization accelerates and the demands on global infrastructure reach unprecedented heights, the industry stands at a major turning point. From managing complex subterranean geology for major metropolitan transit lines—like Vienna's ambitious metro expansion using advanced 3D subsurface models—to navigating new paradigms in artificial intelligence and connected data, modern civil engineering ...
Read MoreHow a 3D Underground Model is Shaping Vienna’s Transit Future
As Vienna’s population continues to surge and tourism hits record-breaking highs, the Austrian capital is looking downward to secure its future. The city is currently boring a brand-new metro line through some of the trickiest, most varied geological terrain in Europe—guided by an innovative 3D subsurface model that began, fittingly, on a rooftop. A Legacy Rooted in Coffeehouses and Soil Mechan...
Read MoreBentley’s Year in Infrastructure Awards Opens in Singapore With a New Format, New Host, and 36 Finalists
The people shaping the world's infrastructure deserve an experience as extraordinary as the work they do. This year, Bentley built one. Bentley's Year in Infrastructure Awards opened in Singapore with a new look. Now in its 22nd year, the event often called the "Oscars of Infrastructure" has a new host, a new keynote format, and a new way for guests to experience the 36 finalist projects compet...
Read MorePLAXIS 2D Helps Model Madrid’s Traditional Tunnel Construction Method
Engineers have developed a methodology using PLAXIS 2D to simulate tunnels built with the Traditional Method of Madrid (TMM), offering a faster alternative to complex three-dimensional analyses. Used in the Madrid Metro since 1917, the TMM divides tunnel excavation into small sections, typically less than 5 square meters. Each section is temporarily supported with timber planks, steel waler bea...

Read MoreHow Bentley Software Is Helping Keep Mumbai’s Massive Sea Bridge on Track
Mumbai's Versova-Bandra Sea Link (VBSL), a 17.17-kilometer, eight-lane bridge set to become India's second-longest, is being built with the help of digital project management software designed to keep a hugely complex construction effort organized and on schedule. Once finished, the bridge will connect Versova to Bandra and is expected to cut commute times sharply for daily travelers, turning w...
Read MoreAutomated Calibration Streamlines Travel Demand Modeling
Automated calibration is helping transportation planners make travel demand modeling faster, more efficient and responsive to changing travel patterns. Traditionally, calibrating travel demand models required months of manual adjustments to ensure model results matched real-world data such as traffic counts, transit ridership and household travel surveys. Automated calibration simplifies the pr...
Read MoreDigital Workflows Could Help Geothermal Energy Finally Scale Up
Digital technologies are helping transform geothermal energy development by making projects more efficient, scalable and easier to manage, according to a recent industry analysis. Geothermal energy provides a reliable, low-emission source of power that can operate around the clock, unlike renewable sources that depend on weather conditions. However, high upfront costs, exploration uncertainty a...
