STEC in China International Urban Underground Pipe Gallery Fair

2017-06-07

From 7th to 9th June, the 2017 China International Urban Underground Pipe Gallery Fair was held in Shanghai New International Exhibition Center. The Shanghai Tunnel Co., Ltd participated in the fair with the theme of "Comprehensive Pipeline Gallery, the Home of Pipelines". In the super exhibition area of 180 sqm, the comprehensive capabilities of the construction, building, management and maintenance in comprehensive pipe gallery, underground space, BIM+VR technology.

STEC Shanghai Urban Construction Design & Research Institute is the first to employ the BIM+VR to engineering design. With the technology of virtual reality, the interactive design program is experienced. With the BIM information management, the procedures of simulation design, construction, and pipeline maintenance are simulated to help update life management of the comprehensive pipeline gallery. In addition, the oblique photography of the unmanned plane is employed in generating the picture of the picture of the terrain and the data collecting in the construction process to get the general dynamic data of the construction site.

The Urban Construction Design Institute involved itself very early in comprehensive pipeline engineering and it is one of the fewer design organization with many successful constructions in comprehensive pipeline gallery. It has successively undertaken the comprehensive pipeline projects of Zhangyang Road, which is well-known as "the first ditch in China，" the rebuilding of the comprehensive pipeline of Shanghai Expo Site, the design of Lin’gang New Town comprehensive pipeline gallery. It has designed many comprehensive pipeline gallery in Hefei, Liny, Nanjing, Xiamen, Tianjin, Huai'an, Zhuhai, Changsha, and Jiangxi with 530 kilometers in total. It has participated in formulating Technical Specifications of Urban Comprehensive Pipeline Gallery Project, the first regulation of pipeline gallery in China. It has compiled the first standard pipeline atlas of gallery drainage and set up the professional e-works of comprehensive pipeline gallery. It has obtained nearly 30 patents in pipeline gallery.

At present, STEC Shanghai Urban Construction Design & Research Institute has designed comprehensive pipeline gallery programs with 120 kilometers in total in the single year of 2016, which is above 6% of the total in China. All the works designed by the institute have become the model of intensive employment of the underground space in large cities of China.
