The government of Uttar Pradesh initiated a water supply project to provide safe drinking water to a rural population of over 14 million people across 388 villages. L&T Construction was retained to design and construct the 160 million liters per day water treatment plant, facing challenges designing and analyzing 200 different structures and over 3,500 kilometers of piping amid a strict six-month timeline. They realized that traditional applications were time consuming and error-prone, requiring an integrated digital modeling and analysis solution.They selected Bentley applications for hydraulic modeling and structural analysis, automating design works for the pipeline network and retaining wall. They completed engineering of the entire project within six months, compared to eight using manual methods. They reduced resource hours for network analysis by 50% and the structural design of 121 overhead tanks by 45%. Working in a connected data environment streamlined and automated workflow processes to achieve a sustainable supply of high-quality water.
