Pumpkin BIM Solutions – Digital Backbone for West Ho Debris Traps Project.
At Pumpkin BIM Solutions, we deliver intelligent, future-ready BIM services tailored to complex environmental and infrastructure challenges.
One of our recent contributions involved providing comprehensive digital support for a major debris mitigation project in the Gisborne region. The project addresses the critical risks posed by forestry debris and sediment movement, as highlighted by severe weather events like Cyclone Hale (January 2023) and Cyclone Gabrielle (February 2023).
🌐 Our Role
Our team transformed intricate site data and project requirements into clear, actionable, and collaborative digital assets using the following tools and services:
🏗️ 3D Modelling with Revit, Civil 3D, and Navisworks
- Developed detailed 3D models from LiDAR point clouds to reflect complex terrain and structure interactions.
- Enabled accurate assessment and visualisation of key structural elements, such as the proposed debris trap designs.
🧩 Custom Revit Family & Template Creation
- Built reusable Revit Families and project-specific Templates to streamline documentation and boost design consistency across multiple stages of the project.
🔄 Workflow Automation with N8N
- Automated key data processes and documentation, reducing turnaround times and enhancing accuracy throughout the project lifecycle.
🛰️ Interactive Visualisation and Collaboration Tools
- Delivered an interactive 3D model for stakeholder review—enabling decision-makers to explore site constraints, structure locations, and design logic in a clear, immersive format.
- Enhanced communication and coordination across teams by integrating site photos and annotations with 3D model overlays.
⚙️ Future-Proofed Design Insights
Using predictive modelling, our BIM framework highlighted historical disaster patterns and supported the development of resilient solutions. This foresight is vital in regions vulnerable to slash-related damage and extreme weather, ensuring structural strategies are well-informed and future-ready.
