"Costain and BrydenWood's longstanding and innovative partnership is leading disruption of the traditional design/engineering services marketplace through the development of an integrated suite of tools to automatically design the infrastructure of the future.Our vision is for a **'data-centric infrastructure design process'** that will reduce the time and cost of railway design in a safe and transparent way.We will support Network Rail's Whole Systems Modelling team in the development and demonstration of a new Rail: Automated Infrastructure Design (R:AID) toolkit.The project aligns with the objectives of the Systems Operator, which are:* planning future strategic infrastructure investment* allocating capacity on the national rail networkThe current mechanism for planning investment and allocating capacity is isolated from the real-world environment. The processes for designing rail systems isolated from the planning model, its capacity requirements and options.We will demonstrate how:* We have built on existing generative design technologies* Can develop a solution relevant to rail* Deliver a demonstrator within 6 monthsOur project benefits from similar work for Highways England and seeks to remove the need for designing from first principles each time. We will take predetermined engineering standards, methods and procedures and adapt them to create a rules-driven multi-disciplinary process for rapidly designing and engineering a railway.This process, using a generative design approach based on formulae, logic and the input from rail engineering specialists, will seek to create a design that complies to the rules and regulations of the railway and the ORR, but dramatically reducing the time it takes to design, with accurate design leading to improved certainty of constructing and operating a railway.The result is a fully integrated digital design model that provides significant production efficiencies across the asset lifecycle and fully supports a projects business case and objectives. Digital design solutions will revolutionise productivity, lower exposure to harm, achieve predictable delivery on time, to lower cost, providing the desired quality with fewer defects."

“Costain和BrydenWood的长期创新合作伙伴关系正在通过开发一套集成工具来自动设计未来的基础设施，从而引领传统设计/工程服务市场的颠覆。我们的愿景是实现一个 * 以数据为中心的基础设施设计流程 ** 这将以安全透明的方式减少铁路设计的时间和成本。我们将支持Network Rail的整体系统建模团队开发和演示新的铁路：自动化基础设施设计（R：AID）工具包。该项目符合系统运营商的目标，即：* 规划未来的战略基础设施投资 * 分配国家铁路网的能力目前规划投资和分配能力的机制与现实世界的环境相隔离。设计铁路系统的过程与规划模型、容量要求和选项无关。我们将演示如何：* 我们建立在现有的生成式设计技术基础上 * 可以开发与铁路相关的解决方案 * 在6个月内交付演示器我们的项目受益于英格兰高速公路的类似工作，并寻求每次都从第一原则中删除设计的必要性。我们将采用预先确定的工程标准、方法和程序，并加以调整，以创建一个规则驱动的多学科流程，从而快速设计和建造铁路。这个流程使用基于公式、逻辑和铁路工程专家输入的生成式设计方法，力求创建符合铁路规则和条例以及ORR的设计，同时还能显著缩短设计时间，准确的设计可提高铁路建设和运营的确定性，从而形成一个完全集成的数字化设计模型，在整个资产生命周期内提供显著的生产效率，并全面支持项目业务案例和目标。数字化设计解决方案将彻底改变生产力，降低风险，实现可预测的按时交付，降低成本，提供所需的质量和更少的缺陷。"
