The Year in Infrastructure 2008 - (Page 50) InnovatIon In CommerCIal or resIdentIal BuIldIng Sheppard Robson Penrith New Squares, Multistory Car Park Penrith, United Kingdom As a new multistory car park for the redevelopment of the town center in the north of England, this project featured an innovative façade treatment based on an exact-scale reproduction of the stunning topography of nearby Lake District National Park. The concept involved a visually complex façade with over 2,500 unique façade panels. The Bentley software used on this project allowed a small team to design a very complex façade and supply that information directly into the manufacturing process, saving months of drawing work. The products took information directly from the 3D model to reduce the number of drawings required. When drawings were required, the 3D model was again used as the basis for producing all traditional 2D information.

The design team had to fulfill client intentions while communicating those intentions to the airport. It also had to manage space constraints and communicate with its manufacturer to meet a very tight schedule. Utilizing MicroStation, TriForma, and Bentley Architecture, the project team communicated by creating visualizations using a 3D model. This identified potential problems, created a forum to discuss solutions, and allowed the team to communicate ideas effectively and effortlessly. The manufacturer also used the model as a basis for its computer-driven construction process. 2008 bE AwARdS oF ExCEllENCE ALSO NOMINATED IN SpEcIAL cATEgOry: cOMMuNIcATINg ThrOugh VISuALIzATION SpEc EcIAL cATE u uNIc ugh V uALIz ALIzATION 50
