Paris Olympic 2024: Digital Twins Technology Will Make Olympic Games More Efficient

The world eagerly awaits the Paris Olympics 2024, starting from 26th July 2024. At the Paris Olympics, we witness the extraordinary performances of athletes and the latest innovations in modern technology.

The Paris Olympics are a game-changer, as it is the first in history to be completely digitalized for a futuristic games experience. Digital Twins technology is used at the Olympic venues, the same technology will also be used for the Paris Paralympic 2024.

Before we move ahead let’s understand what exactly Digital Twins technology is.

What is Digital Twins technology?

What if I say, to host the Paris Olympics 2024, the organizing committee and stakeholders designed the two same models of the Olympic Village, I know this sounds funny, but this is true and this is what Digital Twins can do.

In simple language Digital Twins means the virtual and the exact model of the physical entity, it may be a building, machine, stadium, or an entire city.

Let’s make it simpler from the above example.

There are two identical Olympic villages, one is the real place where the actual games are happening, and the other is a virtual version. Sensors fitted in the real village to collect data on things like weather, lights, and sound. This data is sent to the virtual village, where we can see everything and make changes in real-time. This way, we can keep everything running smoothly during the games.

History of Digital Twins

The thought of Digital Twins was first introduced in the year 1960 by NASA for the Apollo mission, however, the name Digital Twin was not given at that time. The idea was to test and evaluate the possible solutions from Earth.

Dr. Michael Grieve from the University of Michigan was the first who use Digital Twins when he was working on the project Product Lifecycle Management (PLM). Later, other industries also started implementing Digital Twins technology.

How Digital Twins Enhance the Olympics?

Digital Twins offers a realistic view to the Olympic Games organizing committee and the stakeholders so that they can plan and visualize all the aspects including transport, crowd management, security, etc., and fix them in real-time.

The organizing committee partnered with the UK-based company One Plan. One Plans GIS (Geographic Information Software) mapping tool creates digital venues that show the entire space from any angle and in any weather situation. This will help to see the lighting, audio, cameras, televisions, etc. and, according to this, can make the possible changes without visiting the site.

Some additional important uses of digital twin technology in the Paris Olympics 2024.

Decision-making support planning

Digital twins provide real-time data and analytics, which help event organizers with processes such as security planning, ticket pricing, and more.

Post Event Analysis

Digital twins store all the data collected during ongoing events, which can be reviewed post-event. This helps organizers calculate the success of the event and identify key areas for improvement.

Interoperability:

The 3D digital twins are completely interoperable with the 2D maps in the system, when any change happens immediately it will show in 3D. This gives organizers complete access to real- time plans for every venue so they can plan collaboratively.

Paris 2024 will be a landmark Olympic and Paralympic Games, driven by innovation and sustainability,” – Paul Foster (Chief Executive and Founder of OnePlan).

Digital Twins in Swim Training

The US Swim team will also use the Digital Twins at the 2024 Olympics games to enhance their performances.

Ken Ono mathematics professor from the University of Virginia and his team created the digital twins of swimmers and worked with US swimming team members. In a study, they found that the movement of the replicate model of the original swimmer offers valuable insights.

They said digital twins help to find what factors affect the swimmer’s performance like power, muscle strength, and range of motion, this will help to make changes in the swimmers and enhance their performance.

Scientists made a suite of sensors for US swimmers they called it an Inertial Measurement Unit. This suit captures the high-resolution data with 512 frames of information a second, this is 20 times higher than the conventional methods.

Let’s understand the industries and the market size of Digital Twins

Industries actively use Digital Twins technology

In the upcoming years, more industries are set to integrate Digital Twins technology to transform their operations and achieve greater efficiencies.

Market size of Digital Twins

In 2022, the market size of Digital Twins was $6.9 billion, in 2023 it was $10.1 billion. According to research firm Markets And Markets, the Digital Twins market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 61.3%, increasing from $6.9 billion to $110.1 billion by the end of 2028.

We already discussed that the Digital Twins have made a significant impact across various industries such as transportation, construction, and healthcare, but their application in the Olympic Games is particularly noteworthy.

This innovative use of Digital Twins technology offers a unique opportunity to explore how it can enhance the management and experience of one of the world’s most prestigious sporting events. This will open doors for other sports to utilize digital twins.

Bihar Bridge Collapse Shocks Nation: Structural Failures and Safety Concerns

In the last 15 days, 10 bridges have been collapsed in Bihar state. The first incident happened on 18th of the June, when the newly constructed bridge over the Bakra River of the Araira district collapsed. Then it took place in several places including Siwan, East Champaran, Kishanganj, and Madhubani.

To date, 11 engineers have been suspended. All these happened because precautionary measures were not taken, proper technical supervision was not conducted, and most importantly proper technology was not used in the construction of the bridge.

If the proper technology had been used in the construction of these bridges, then probably many of these accidents could have been prevented. You might be wondering what technology can be used so that this accident prevention could be possible.

BIM or Building Information Modeling is a technology now used in the construction of many structures all over the world it provides strength, stability, and efficiency.

Building Information Modeling is a very powerful technology that prevents bridges from collapsing through the various stages of design, construction, and maintenance.

Let’s discuss all three stages in brief.

Design Phase:

Enhanced Visualization and Simulation: BIM helps engineers to make a detailed 3D model of the bridge including structural components and the connections. With the help of these models, we can real words conditions such as load, stress, and environmental factors too. Engineers analyze these models in real time identify the possible errors and fix all the errors even before the construction of the bridge.

Collaborative Design: BIM enables cooperation among architects, engineers, and stakeholders. By working on a shared digital platform, professionals can integrate their expertise and identify design conflicts or errors early on. This ensures that structural integrity is prioritized from the outset.

Iterative Design Improvement: Designers can quickly iterate through different design alternatives in BIM, evaluating each for structural stability and feasibility. This iterative process allows for the optimization of designs to meet safety standards and operational requirements.

Construction Phase:

Accurate Construction Documentation: BIM enables detailed construction documentation from the 3D model. This ensures that contractors have precise information regarding materials, dimensions, and assembly sequences, reducing errors in construction that could compromise structural integrity.

Quality Control and Clash Detection: BIM software can perform clash detection, identifying conflicts between different building systems (e.g., structural, mechanical, electrical). This minimizes errors during construction that could lead to structural failures later.

Real-time Project Monitoring: During the construction phase, BIM can provide real-time monitoring of progress against the digital model. Any change from the planned construction can be detected early, allowing for corrective actions to maintain structural integrity.

Maintenance and Lifecycle Management:

Asset Management: BIM shows the digital record of the bridge including maintenance history, materials used, and all other components. This information helps to support the maintenance planning and management through the lifecycle of the bridge.

Performance Monitoring: Sensors and IoT devices can be integrated with BIM models to monitor the bridge’s performance in real-time. Any deviation or signs of structural degradation can be identified early, triggering timely maintenance interventions to prevent future collapses.

Renovation and Retrofitting: BIM Models are helpful with restoration and retrofitting projects by properly capturing present conditions and integrating the suggested modifications. This assures that structural changes and implemented safely and effectively.

Building Information Modeling gives a comprehensive approach to the design, construction and maintenance of a bridge. By utilizing the advanced visualization, simulation, collaborative tools, and real-time monitoring capabilities BIM significantly increases the ability to find and avoid the possible causes of the bridge collapse.

What would happen if BIM could implement each of these bridges?

All of these bridge projects could be done safely.

Not only present but in the future also if any error occurs it will be found and fixed.

Save money, as all they need to construct again which needs extra cost.

This way BIM could help to prevent these accidents happened in Bihar.

T20 World Cup 2024: Nassau County Cricket Stadium Built in Just 100 Days Thanks to Modular Construction Technology.

The T20 World Cup 2024 is co-hosted by the USA and West Indies. This is the first time the USA has hosted the World Cup and a total of 8 matches of the T20 World Cup will be played in the USA.

The two venues in the USA were already declared but finding the third venue was challenging for the International Cricket Council (ICC). Less than a year was remaining to start the T20 World Cup and yet the third venue was not decided.

Finally, after the continuous 8 months of venue hunting, ICC was able to find the third venue in Nassau County. In November 2023 ICC signed the contract with Nassau County to play international cricket there.

The construction work began on 18th February 2024 just 105 days before the start of the world cup. The biggest challenge for ICC was to construct an international cricket stadium in 105 days. It was quite impossible and Don Lockerbie, venue development officer of the T20 World Cup 2024 declared it is an impossible project. But with the help of technology, ICC made it possible and built an international stadium just in 100 days. Modular construction technology enables all of these aspects to be seamlessly integrated and optimized, revolutionizing the way buildings are designed, constructed, and managed.

What is Modular Construction?

Normally, construction teams make all the structures and materials needed for construction on site and then fix them in the main building.

Modular construction is a technology where a complete building or a structure is constructed offsite using controlled plant conditions and then transported to the location.

Nassau County is the first-ever cricket stadium constructed using Modular Construction Technology in the history of Cricket.

The Role of BIM in Modular Construction

BIM nurtures the development of thorough, precise, timely, and verified models encompassing every intricate detail of the construction site.

This facilitates construction companies in creating precise 3D visualizations for each component to be constructed offsite, ensuring seamless integration within the rest of the structure.

The stadium has a capacity of 34,000, and it will host a total of 8 World Cup matches. ICC made the strategic decision to craft drop-in pitches for the Nassau County Cricket Stadium especially for T20 World Cup 2024, departing from the conventional practice of creating standard pitches on site.

What are Drop-in pitches?

Drop-in pitches are not prepared in the stadium these have to be made away from the stadium and transported to a location. Drop-in pitches are prepared in a steel tray with a layer of soil, clay, and grass. For making of single drop in pitch it took about 6 months of duration.

Difference between the Normal pitch and the Drop-in pitch

Both drop-in pitches and normal pitches are 22 yards. Only the difference is drop-in pitches are made outside the stadium while normal pitches are made at the stadium. Drop-in pitches can easily be removed too.

Why are drop-in pitches used at Nassau County Cricket Stadium?

Australia and New Zealand are two countries that use drop-in pitches for cricket. These countries play other sports also like Hockey, Football, Baseball, and others and none of the sports needs a pitch.

That is how the concept of drop-in pitch evolved. After the T20 World Cup 2024, drop-in pitches can be easily removed so that they can play other sports on the same ground. Keeping in mind the same thing ICC decided to use drop-in pitches at Nassau County Cricket Stadium.

10 drop-in pitches prepared for Nassau County Cricket Stadium in Adelaide Oval to host T20 World Cup 2024. The development of pitches has been overseen by Damian Hough, the head curator of Adelaide Oval. Out of the 10 pitches, 4 pitches were installed at the main ground while 6 were used for practice. All the staff of drop-in pitches will stay at Nassau County Cricket Stadium to take care of the pitches till the end of all the matches at the venue.

Olympic legend Ussian Bolt inaugurated the stadium on 15th May 2024 along with several legendary cricketers.

Why you need construction sequencing management?

Construction sequencing and scheduling requires you to plan construction activities while considering resources, spatial constraints, and other concerns. Scheduling and sequence analysis in construction guarantees that staging is streamlined and identifies potential conflicts. Construction sequencing usually requires scheduling and sequencing software to create, update, and communicate the project plan to the stakeholders through various reports. A range of representation techniques is utilized to envision the sequence and scheduling issues. The sequencing model ensures the smoothest possible construction sequence.

In the context of construction, traditional methods used for project planning can’t show how or why certain activities are connected in a given sequence. They fail to calculate precisely the critical way to complete a project as they cannot capture the spatial components identified with these activities.

Sequencing and scheduling in construction is the process of listing activities and tasks with a planned start and finish date. Construction sequencing management becomes vital as the traditional planning methods fail to link directly to the building model. A construction sequence implies that the installation arrangement of project equipment and materials, as well as the grouping of units, frameworks or subsystems, depends on the plant sequence.

The Construction Sequence creates methods based on engineering, designing, and operation activities. The importance of sequencing in construction projects cannot be underestimated since it plays a crucial role in the success of the project.

As a practice, construction sequencing should be followed all through the project. It is also important that the written arrangement be modified before any changes in construction activities are executed. The plan can be updated if the construction site inspection indicates the requirement.

Here’s why sequencing management can have an impact.

Effectiveness: Construction sequencing management is a useful tool for erosion control because it guarantees that management practices are introduced where necessary and when appropriate. The plan must be followed and updated if necessary, to amplify the effectiveness.

Cost considerations: Construction sequencing management is a low-cost tool as it requires a limited amount of a contractor’s time to provide a written arrangement for proper coordination of construction activities and practices.

Application: Construction sequencing management should include the following:

• Principal improvement activities.

• Which measures should be introduced before other activities are started?

• Compatibility with the general contract construction plan.

For instance, construction sequencing can be utilized to design earthwork and erosion and sediment control (ESC) activities at construction sites where land disturbances might influence water quality.

Construction sequencing management benefits the projects in the following ways:

·         It assigns dates to project activities.

·         Based on construction sequencing and scheduling, the preliminary expenses can be estimated.

·         It helps to identify whether the duration stipulated for the project is achievable or not.

·         It is also useful for formulating tender estimates for projects.

·         It helps coordinate the resources like materials, equipment, and labour with project work.

·         It provides a sequence of tasks. This helps to define the next activities that need to be prepared for.

·         It helps the construction team to achieve its goals within the time limit.

·         It helps focus on safety performance activities.

·         It helps to track actual work performed to determine whether construction is proceeding satisfactorily.

·         It helps eliminate problems due to production bottlenecks.

·         It provides comprehensive data concerning time, schedule, and resources.

·         It helps identify and resolve workspace clashes.

·         It helps maximize quality control measures.

·         It helps to achieve the highest level of productivity.

Proper sequencing, 4D scheduling, and planning ensure the completion of the project on schedule and within budget. This not only defines the pace of the work but also provides an overview of how the tasks are executed. It identifies techniques and sequences in which materials are delivered. The construction sequencing management exposes details such as out-of-sequence work, scheduling clashes between multiple trades and various scenarios and phasing strategies. In the end, the aim is to deliver projects on time and within budget. Construction Sequencing Management helps construction companies achieve that goal.

We do consider ourselves among the top shelf of BIM service providers and from that perspective, perhaps, it’s worth taking a look at what the best BIM professionals look like. What characteristics set apart the best BIM professionals?

Of course, the first requirement is to be an absolute expert on the software tool itself. These professionals must live, breathe, and talk BIM. They must know how to make things happen by harnessing the awesome power of the chosen software tool. But there’s more than technical skill involved here. This post is about those other essentials.

This isn’t a set of guidelines for recruiting, more a set of qualities one must look for in individuals who can best leverage the powerful toolset to provide meaningful data to project teams. As it happens, these also suggest parameters that could be vital in your decision of a trustworthy and skilled BIM solution provider.

1.     Great Communicators: The BIM team plays an essential role in every construction phase involving multiple construction teams. It is important to communicate the information the framework delivers effectively. Consequently, communication is a huge factor in making a capable BIM professional. The ideal BIM professional would be acquainted with the business prerequisites and with the capabilities of the partner teams. It’s possible that BIM may be new for the onsite team so when a project executive approaches for something, the team should be able to translate that request into the data that is needed. Team members who can read between the lines and interpret those requirements back again are invaluable.

2.     Flexibility: Different time zones, project types, and plans of action must be considered in the equation. The BIM professional is often required to work offsite and yet be a core part of the onsite team. This suggests the true BIM professional must be flexible to adjust to the necessary business structure, schedules, and procedures. They must also be familiar with a range of requirements and be flexible in their delivery.

3.     Quality-Obsessed: So much depends on the BIM model. The construction planning, that determines how the project goes, is heavily dependent on the model. Equipment schedules, material orders, resource planning, and, even, post-construction facilities management rely on the BIM model. Having a quality driven team makes it possible to get the model right the first time and reduces unnecessary errors and issues. Only if the BIM professional is quality-driven can a strong foundation be built up that will be capable of holding up the entire effort.

4.     Ability to Fuel Innovation: BIM demands a combination of high efficiency and an extreme degree of initiative. This is essential for solving complex issues at the required pace. Individuals with diverse skill sets are key, as different problems need different solutions. A wide variety of ideas and viewpoints are necessary to blend together to come up with the best result. There is a need to look beyond the obvious and see visions of the future that may not be immediately apparent. In such a situation. innovation becomes a stock-in-trade for the folks who craft impactful solutions out of the BIM effort.

5.     Organized: The task is complex and multi-faceted. The stakeholders are many. The desired impact is high. It is also clear that the consumers of the BIM model are varied and what they seek from the model also varies greatly. Staying focused on the task and delivering what is required demands an extreme level of self-organization. Such an organized approach makes it easy to monitor tasks, deadlines, and priorities and deliver what everyone needs.

BIM is a solution that includes team-members and consumers of information from several unique backgrounds which include builders, architects, engineers, contractors, and so on. A BIM professional who can deliver what each of these stakeholders requires has a special set of skills. The professionals who work on our team share the traits listed here. What characteristics do the BIM experts you have worked with show?

5 reasons why US companies prefer Excelize as their BIM outsourcing partner

We have been players in the BIM services business for over a decade now. We have delivered state of the art Building Information Modelling services to architecture, engineering, and construction companies across the world. We are now present in the USA, along with the Middle East and India. It has always been our endeavor to drive ongoing improvement in all the phases of the building lifecycle from planning to execution. Tackling massive scale is not new for us -consider our recent project Maha Metro Rail Corporation’s Nagpur Metro in India. The city-wide construction had a total length of 40+ km, 36 stations, and 2 depots.

While Excelize has been adding immense value to the building industry in Asia, it’s our work in the USA that gives us special pride. This is the leading economy of the world and projects there have the scale and vision to challenge the best companies. It’s gratifying to make a mark and gain the trust of construction majors there. Here are 5 reasons why US companies have faith in us!

Putting scale into perspective

With over 10 years of experience behind us, addressing scale is not an issue for us. We have been exposed to gigantic projects (like the Nagpur Metro). But perhaps more importantly, for these projects, we have had the good fortune of being involved in providing end-to-end solutions. We have seen every detail of these huge projects and we have found a way to deliver impact. This is why US companies trust us with massive projects.

For e.g., we were extremely proud of our solutions for a residential tower project in Florida. This is a skyscraper, 650-feet tall with 60-floors of housing. This high-end complex even included a robotic parking garage providing 284 parking spaces for 132 units allowing unit owners to park cars right outside their unit on each floor. It’s fair to say that projects of this scale that rely on advanced technologies such as robotics and IoT are next to impossible to pull off without the precision and insight of BIM modeling.

A portfolio without borders (of any kind)

We are extremely proud of our international exposure. We have been bringing the best BIM solutions to companies in some of the fastest-growing construction markets of the world. For e.g., we have a significant footprint in the FIFA World Cup-fueled Qatar market. Some of the other international projects undertaken by us were the Greenfield infrastructure project as well as a multi-specialty Hospital in the Middle East and the refurbishment project of a 52-year-Old University Library Building in California. Our portfolio talks loudly and confidently. The exposure is not just to different geographies. It’s varied in the kinds of projects we do. The experience required to model a heritage building is very different from the learnings you would take away from a metro project. It’s this combination of skills that our US customers value.

At Excelize, experience is the best teacher

Although this is the norm, we feel that in a field which is ever-evolving and growing on a daily basis, experience is everything. As construction technology changes and the boundaries of what is possible with BIM are being pushed outwards it is critical to have a sound foundation to base your efforts on. Being so hands-on with our projects has taught us many valuable lessons over the years. A decade of working on such large projects has fine-tuned teams to work together. Problem-solving is second-nature to us. The challenges faced on the diverse projects we have worked on have made us this way -a team forged in the fire of rich experience.

The proof is in the pudding

You have probably seen stats like 83% of the expert BIM users experienced a positive ROI and 93% of the users strongly believed in the potential of gaining more value in the future. (These are according to a McGraw Hill report). It’s probably stats like these that have convinced more and more construction projects in the US turn to BIM.

Now, sample these stats:

– 8% cost saving over projected DPR costs achieved in a $ 1.2 Billion project.

– 66% saving of time in creating a Clash Detection and Resolution (CDR) model for a renovation project covering 74,000 sq. ft.

– 97% accuracy in predicting the quantity of steel consumed in a residential project of 28 floors.

These are actual results delivered by Excelize by leveraging the power of BIM. It’s results like these that convince construction companies of our capabilities to add value.

Keeping sustainability at the center of modeling

It’s no secret that green practices are important in the USA. This is especially true after the recent discussions between the American Institute of Architects Committee on the Environment (AIA/COTE) and the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). The discussion reflects the growing focus on green or sustainable design, which is something that BIM modeling can help with.

It is needs like this that are driving the USA construction companies to look to make more investments in Information Technology-driven solutions like BIM. But those investments are not going through, as was reported in Moody’s last “Global Construction Outlook” report. The single biggest reason for the investments faltering was the lack of skilled people. Of course, this is where we come in! Our people have the domain knowledge, they know the best tools like Revit, and they have the exposure and experience that the USA demands. It’s a question of being in the right place at the right time.

And, as mentioned, we pride ourselves on offering end-to-end solutions. This means our clients don’t have to coordinate with numerous vendors. We take over everything- from BIM services, CAD services, construction sequencing services, and even Point Cloud to BIM.

This combination seems to be what’s making us stand out when USA-based construction companies look for a BIM partner. Is this the combination of skills and experience that you are looking for?
