Abstract:
With the rapid development of economy, demands for bridge landscape are becoming increasingly urgent in China, hence bridges with complex spatial structures and beautiful curves come into being. However, the traditional BIM modeling methods for creating bridges with unique shapes are complicated and its efficiency is low. Therefore, the design and modeling process of bridge landscape with unique shapes has always been a pressing issue. By combining the Revit software with the visual programming plug-in Dynamo, a parametric family library of the pedestrian cable-stayed bridge was created, and the rapid modeling technology related to the pedestrian cable-stayed bridge was developed according to the characteristics of each structural bridge of a special-shaped pedestrian cable-stayed bridge. This method achieves the rapid layout and parameter assignment of each component of the spatially shaped bridge by obtaining the three-dimensional coordinate points of the bridge centerline, compiling the bridge component parameterized Excel table and the Dynamo program to import the parameter information and position information of each component in the Excel table. Based on the mode "Revit+Dynamo", the modeling efficiency of pedestrian cable-stayed bridges can be greatly improved, which promotes the implementation of BIM technology in complex landscape bridges, and provides new ideas for the modeling of complex human-shaped cable-stayed bridges.
