Estación Las Piedras

  /     /  Estación Las Piedras

New underground urban station for the Uruguayan railway system, and dry plaza at ground level. The scope includes detailed engineering and construction drawings, programming, modeling and BIM coordination.

In the design of the railway station in Uruguay, railway engineering acquires central importance as it is the backbone that supports the safe and efficient operation of the infrastructure. The structure must not only resist the dynamic loads of the train, guaranteeing its safe transit, but also provide comfortable spaces for passengers. The synergy between structural resistance and human comfort becomes the axis of the project, where the station is not only a connection point, but an integrated space that enriches the travel experience.

The integration of the station with the natural space is manifested through a dry plaza, connecting the urban environment with the surrounding nature. This area provides a pleasant environment for users, promoting social interaction and creating a harmonious transition space between the railway environment and the natural landscape.

The executive project of this railway station is approached with the BIM methodology, which stands as a fundamental pillar. BIM not only facilitates detailed three-dimensional representation of the structure and its interaction with the environment, but also enables efficient coordination between engineering and construction teams. The BIM methodology, by providing an integrated information platform, improves decision making, reduces errors during construction and contributes to the overall effectiveness of the project. In this context, developing the railway station with BIM not only ensures precise and efficient execution, but also the creation of a space that harmonizes with its natural environment and meets both technical and human needs.
