Optimal Design of Ski Tracks in Construction Projects: Taking the Warm-Up and Training Ski Track of the South Area in the Yanqing Competition Zone of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games as an Example

Mature civil engineering software and platforms can provide a dynamic correlated situation of the road design, generate a quick and accurate grading design in terrain model making, and, most importantly, improve the design efficiency and calculation accuracy and reduce the workload of designers in the construction project. However, the application of existing platforms in complex site engineering for the design of ski tracks has not been well developed. The design process of ski tracks requires consideration of elaborate requirements in complex environmental conditions. In this study, we aim to simplify digital elevation model (DEM) data, optimize ski track contour lines, and localize the design expression of the ski track designs based on the experience of the construction of the National Alpine Ski Center in the Yanqing Competition Zone for the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games. This study examines the feasibility of the optimal digital approach combining mathematics and computer science based on the case study of the warm-up and training ski track of the south area in the Yanqing Competition Zone. This study will contribute to the optimal design of skiing tracks in construction projects and help to improve designers’ workload efficiency for the design and construction of ski tracks in the future.
