OVERVIEW

What is OpenSite Designer?

OpenSite Designer helps you set your business apart from the competition by quickly delivering optimized designs to meet your client’s needs. This built-for-purpose site and land development application enables you to jumpstart projects quickly using a wide variety of tools. Tools include rapid site modeling and analysis, earthwork optimization and quantification, drainage and underground utility design, automated project deliverables, and financial forecasting.  

OpenSite Designer helps you connect data, people, workflows, and ideas needed to deliver land development projects and support BIM workflows. You can combine 3D project data from any source to have improved project understanding, make better engineering decisions, and reduce risk by minimizing errors before construction.

  • Design in context
    Understand existing conditions, accelerate modeling workflows, and make better design decisions by easily integrating point clouds, reality meshes, photogrammetry, total station surveys, and terrain into design and construction models.  
  • Conceptualize designs quickly
    Create and optimize multiple design scenarios in days, not weeks, for commercial, industrial, residential, and campus projects. Using auto-drawing capabilities and dynamic 3D modeling, conceptualize and detail building pads, parking lots, sidewalks, streets, and other design features.
  • Ensure design intent
    Model with design intent using technology that captures, stores, and maintains how each design element is created. Build design associations and relationships between elements, ensuring that the design always reflects engineering intent. Design intent accelerates design production and ensures standards, and allows you to create designs in minutes, not hours or days.  
  • Analyze feasibility of parcel layout and grading
    Use automated parcel layout and grading tools to identify project risks associated with earthworks, zoning, and client requirements.
  • Model, analyze, and design, complete stormwater and sanitary sewer networks
    Design and analyze stormwater and sanitary networks that are fully integrated with your site design project. Manipulate networks in plan or profile views, displaying the drainage model and other utilities.
  • Optimize earthwork and site layout
    Investigate site layout options quickly with parametric drawing capabilities of parking lots, buildings, drives, and walkways. Design changes are easy due to dynamic interaction of elements. Next, optimize earthwork using a grading solver that runs thousands of iterations based on designer-defined constraints to find the best cost of construction. Evaluate results and respond to project stakeholder feedback quickly.
  • Perform design-time analysis
    Provide visibility into project performance with design-time analytics for drainage, terrain, grading, site visibility, safety, and more to achieve optimal project outcomes.
  • Improve project deliverables
    Ensure high-quality design deliverables with automated production of drawings using design constraints, design-time visualization, dynamic annotation, and automated plan production based on the live model. As the design changes, the multidiscipline documentation sets are automatically updated.
  • Support BIM workflows
    Ensure data-rich BIM deliverables to help advance BIM workflows in a digital twin authoring environment while also creating all traditional and digital design deliverables.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Do I need a 3rd party visualization software to create animations or real-time renderings?

No, OpenSite Designer is a 3D modeling application that helps you experience designs in real time and enables you to move through the 3D site model and visually inspect the design for any deficiencies or physical conflicts. You can fully view site features in 3D QA to check grading issues, utility conflicts, and site performance. The software fully integrates with Bentley LumenRT to create models and high-impact visuals and animations to easily communicate the design to stakeholders and clients for project approval.

Can I create both a conceptual design and detailed design with OpenSite Designer?

Yes, OpenSite Designer provides 3D modeling features that let you create conceptual to preliminary to detailed design in one application. The site layout tools are based on civil engineering principles and standards to ensure project feasibility. The software is an all-in-one solution and handles tasks such as parking lot layout, building interaction, earthwork grading, general site design, ponds, sanitary and stormwater network design, subsurface utilities, construction documentation creation, and construction staking reports to ensure you have the tools needed for all design needs.

Does OpenSite Designer produce both 3D models and 2D PDF or paper drawings to support project deliverables?

You can produce a complete array of 2D and 3D design deliverables with automated drawing production tools to produce high-quality documentation. Since all deliverables adhere to project standards and are created from the same model, you can be confident of your deliverables. OpenSite Designer provides design, volume, and analysis in industry-standard formats for data exchange and reporting. The application also outputs standard formats for Trimble, Topcon, and Leica for machine-controlled grading and machine guidance.

Can I integrate data from other projects into my site design?

OpenSite Designer provides an open modeling environment allowing you to easily integrate data from different disciplines to improve collaboration and ensure all users are working from the latest model in all phases of the design.  Working in the live model using the data interactively reduces risk, and working with site, rail, road, bridge, drainage, subsurface utilities, geotechnical, and other design teams helps identify conflicts earlier in the process and eliminate construction errors and delays.  

Does OpenSite Designer support residential design?

Yes, OpenSite Designer is a built-for-purpose site design application and provides 3D modeling for site designers to elevate single-family residential design and layout to ensure an integrated multidiscipline workflow and increased return on investment. The software’s  auto parcel creation technology helps  designers create detailed designs while identifying project risk points.
