Automates trench modelling and mass calculation based on pipe and manhole properties.
Gemini TrenchWorks automates trench design, volume calculation, and documentation by generating dynamic trench models from pipe and manhole properties. The parametric approach provides flexibility to modify pipe type, diameter, height, bedding material, or backfill layers during early planning
During revisions or additional work, updated parameters trigger automatic recalculation of all quantities. The module generates complete trench models and mass calculations, supporting Norwegian Standards, Process Codes, and contract-specific requirements.
Once the model is ready for execution, you can export it to common machine‑control formats or measurement‑box formats, ensuring correct data reaches the field. Finished models can also be exported as IFC or 3D DWG for use in visualization or coordination tools. When documenting the final as‑built trench, 3D lines and points can be imported directly and combined with offset values to create an accurate 3D model for documentation and quality assurance.

Common questions about TrenchWorks
The parametric modelling engine automatically builds and updates the trench when pipe properties, heights, backfill layers, or dimensions are modified. Manual rebuilding of models is not required.
Yes, it supports Norwegian Standards, Process Codes, and fully custom rule sets. This helps you adapt mass calculations directly to your project’s contract.
Absolutely. You can import 3D lines and points, apply offsets, and generate a correct 3D documentation model that includes all pipes and manholes.
Trench models can be exported to machine‑control systems, measurement‑box formats, IFC, and 3D DWG, enabling use across field tools, design systems, and visualization platforms.
