#DYK: Bentley's first software release was PseudoStation. While working at E.I. DuPont, Keith Bentley wrote software that permitted engineers to access their digital drawings on an ordinary graphics terminal that cost one-tenth the price of the more expensive ones used at the time. He called it ViewDGN. In 1983, he obtained a formal letter from DuPont permitting him to sell ViewDGN. After some preliminary market research and demonstration of the software to potential customers, the software was soon renamed and launched under the name PseudoStation by Bentley Systems. It was the right time; the market was ready for a stand-alone personal computer-based CAD system compatible with the Intergraph CAD file format. And, the predecessor to MicroStation. See the link in the comments for more on MicroStation's past, present, and future. #Bentley40Years

China's Chengyang ‘Wind and Rain’ Bridge, Henderson Waves in Singapore, and Melbourne’s Webb Bridge are visually stunning bridges that support pedestrians across scenic roads and waterways. Check out this blog post from Seequent, the Bentley subsurface company, that explores technically advanced transport bridges from around the world. These marvels in civil engineering are sure to evoke some oohs and ahhs. https://bit.ly/47Hiw7N #bridges #roadways #engineering #infrastructure
Are these the world's most beautiful bridges?

From the early architectural plans of the Old Babylonian Empire to the groundbreaking work of Leonardo da Vinci and Gaspard Monge, architects and engineers have meticulously advanced the science of designing and building infrastructure, and continually pushed the boundaries of innovation. Today, engineers are harnessing the power of digital twins and artificial intelligence to create more sustainable, resilient, and efficient infrastructure. Let's take a look at a few of these engineering innovations. https://bit.ly/3TAxI0P #innovation #engineering #Bentley40years

London’s 150-year-old sewer system was built to handle waste for a population of less than half of the city’s current 8 million people. Costain, VINCI, and Bachy Soletanche are working in a joint venture to design, construct, and replace the eastern section of the sewer system with a new super sewer called the Thames Tideway Tunnel project. The 25 km-long sewage tunnel has been designed to clean up one of London’s greatest natural assets, the iconic River Thames. In a typical year, tens of millions of tons of storm sewage spill into the river. The team used Bentley’s digital twin and other solutions to visualize the construction process. The new sewer system will mitigate waste and debris and significantly improve the river’s water quality. Once fully operational in 2025, the tunnel will modernize the city's 150-year-old sewer system to divert the overflow of surface water, debris, and sewage from the River Thames, treat it, and then discharge it as clean water.

One of the Philippines’ most impressive infrastructure projects, the Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway (CCLEX) opened in April 2022. It is the country's tallest and longest bridge, cutting travel times from Mactan to Cebu International Airport by 40 minutes. Stretching 8.9km across the Mactan Channel, the CCLEX was constructed to relieve congestion on the existing inter-island crossings. Before the four-lane, 27m-wide expressway opened in 2022, Cebu was connected to Mactan by only two bridges to the north. Since the southern bridge’s opening, CCLEX has been relieving traffic congestion on the two original bridges and has hosted marathons and Ironman competitions contributing to improved regional tourism and the local economy. The CCLEX was first proposed in 2014 in an area vulnerable to typhoons with winds as strong as 250km/hr, requiring a structural design that can withstand high seismic activity. Engineering firm Sener performed multidiscipline modeling and analysis, enabling engineers to make geometry adjustments to ensure design compatibility between the structures. Collaboration between the geotechnical and bridge design and construction teams with the help of Bentley software enabled them to optimize the bored pile diameters for the main bridge and viaducts. With these optimized calculations the design teams reduced the dimensions of the foundations and minimized the impact on the coral seabed. The improved collaboration also helped to reduce coordination times to review and approve design before construction.

This past week was National Roundabouts Week in the U.S. Across the country, there are over 10,000 roundabouts, some states even have a "roundabout first" policy, prioritizing them in roadway intersection designs to help improve safety. For instance, changing a two-way intersection with stop signs to a roundabout can reduce fatal and injury crashes by 82 percent. A roundabout is just one of many road elements addressed by the Complete Streets design model used by transportation planners and engineers to consistently plan, design, operate, and maintain the entire roadway networks with all users in mind. While helping to provide safe roadways is always top of mind, we're resharing this article explaining the benefits of the Complete Streets approach. https://bit.ly/3TCutFU #roads #transportation #infrastructure #engineering #CompleteStreets #RoundaboutsWeek @federalhighwayadmin
