São Paulo Metro: Redefining Metro Construction and Design with BIM
São Paulo Metro Line 19, Brazil’s first large-scale rail project developed entirely with BIM, tackled challenges like complex geology and dense urban areas. BIM improved coordination, enabled clash detection, and integrated geotechnical data for safer designs. Using Autodesk Civil 3D and IFC, the project optimized train operations and infrastructure. BIM streamlined collaboration, reduced errors, and sped up delivery, setting a benchmark for future projects.
