BIM tunneling documentation in Rohbaustollen Angath

Since 2023, Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB), with BEMO‐ÖSTU STETTIN, has been constructing the 2.6 km raw construction tunnel Angath (Rohbaustollen Angath) along the Angerberg. It will support geological investigations, logistics for the future main railway tunnel Angerberg, and act as a rescue tunnel, ensuring safety. The project includes a pre‐cut, tunnel excavation, and a 110‐meter section of the main railway tunnel, with turning niches and cross adits. Building information modeling (BIM) is used for design, tendering, control, and documentation. The integrated project delivery (IPD) model ensures shared responsibility for risks and costs. BIM optimizes data flow and transparency, with tunneling documentation collected on‐site, verified in ÖBB's Common Data Environment (MSP), and used for parametric modeling. Cost and progress monitoring occur via software RIB iTWO (Version 2023, 2023). Project documentation and the linking of the documentation into a 3D BIM model of a tunnel enables early detection of deviations and appropriate action to be taken, with transparency and traceability being critical to the success of the IPD project.
