The Year in Infrastructure 2008 - (Page 42) InnovatIon In CommerCIal or resIdentIal BuIldIng Johnnybro Developments Limited Tsai Residence Hamilton, New Zealand the goal was to design and build a two-story house that featured innovative interiors and exteriors. MicroStation, TriForma, and Bentley Architecture created visualizations of the design and incorporated many design changes before the final layout was finalized, which made changes in layout quick to perform. The house won the silver award for House of the Year in 2007 in the Waikato district of New Zealand and its photo was featured on the cover of a local magazine.

With ProSteel 3D, the complex structure could be visualized and modeled, and perfect 2D drawings could be produced automatically, allowing fabrication of the steel work with no technical failures. With ProSteel 3D, all difficult connections could be solved and possible errors were detected early, as opposed to modeling difficult connections of bended beams in 2D. With the ProSteel revision function, all changes were marked and corrected in 2D drawings – resulting in about a 40 percent time savings. 2008 bE AwARdS oF ExCEllENCE ALSO NOMINATED IN SpEcIAL cATEgOry: ATTAININg rETurN ON INNOvATION SpEc EcIAL cATE rETurN ur INNOv 42
