• Abstract:
  The Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT) used a hybrid approach to incorporate building information modeling (BIM) into the contract documents for the I-80/I-380 Systems Interchange Project in eastern Iowa (Figure 1). The project started in August 2018 and is scheduled to be completed in December 2022. The I-80/I-380 Systems Interchange Project is a comprehensive redesign of a major interchange that is intended to improve travel in the area. The project includes the construction of three curved steel plate girder bridges with a combined total length of 4,200 ft. The first structure is a 5-span bridge with a diverging gore (Ramp BH), the second is a short 3-span bridge (Ramp B), and the third is a 13-span, 3-unit curved bridge (Ramp H) as illustrated in Figure 2.
