midas CIM is a product designed by experienced designers.

midas CIM provides road and cutting slope modeling
features capable of calculating accurate earthwork,
and results are suitable for practical conditions.

03 Quick and Easy • Generate the entire BIM model through a straight line unit model.

• Resources are greatly saved as immediate modeling corrections

including reinforcing bars are possible when changing the alignment plan.

• The changes of super-elevation due to alignment changes are easily

reflected by applying parameters.

• Similar type bridges can be created in midas CIM by just modifying

some data in the existing bridge model.

Plate elements to midas Civil model.
• When a change is made to a midas CIM model, the model
in midas Civil is updated with existing load information.

Civil → CIM • Convert midas Civil model to midas CIM model.

• By utilizing the existing midas Civil model, proposals
that include a 3D BIM model can be generated without
additional work.

total construction cost of this mega-scaled project is 3
billion USD, and Larsen Tubro (hereafter referred to as
L&T), India's leading construction company, participates
in the construction. The design company provided 2D
drawings to L&T, but it was not easy to intuitively establish
the construction sequence of the interchange section
using only 2D drawings at the construction site. Therefore,
L&T requested a 3D BIM model from Midas IT India. The
modeling of a very complex intersection section where six
roads intersect was completed using midas CIM and the
contractor was able to solve the difficulties through an
intuitive 3D model.
