GeoStudio 2025.2 adds a 3D Sweep Option that extrudes 2D geometries along user-defined paths, enabling faster setup of complex 3D embankments, tunnels and slopes without full re‑meshing. The release upgrades GeoStudio Python scripting with improved object access and automation of batch analyses, and expands language support to Simplified Chinese, Brazilian Portuguese and Spanish. For practitioners, this means quicker parametric studies, easier integration with in‑house workflows, and wider deployment across multinational design teams.

Revizto is being used by Arcadis on the Warringah Freeway Upgrade in New South Wales, one of Australia’s most complex road infrastructure packages, to federate design models and site data into a single digital coordination hub. The cloud-based platform supports clash detection, issue tracking and 3D/2D model viewing across disciplines, enabling designers, constructors and client teams to work off a common data environment in real time. For geotechnical and civil teams, this centralised model management tightens interface control around retaining structures, cut-and-cover works and staging constraints on a heavily trafficked urban corridor.

New Civil Engineer and Construction News announced the TechFest Awards 2025 winners at a gala event at the Hilton Metropole in London, recognising digital and technical innovation across UK infrastructure and construction. Although individual project details were not released in the brief announcement, the awards typically cover categories such as digital design workflows, data-driven asset management and offsite or automated construction methods. Practitioners should watch for the full winners’ list to benchmark emerging tools and processes that are gaining traction with major clients and Tier 1 contractors.
