Arcadis

Arcadis utilized One Click LCA in a major mobility project in the UK's southwest region to drive sustainability and reduce whole-life carbon emissions. Tasked with improving a motorway junction while meeting climate change requirements, Arcadis implemented a whole-life carbon approach from the project's outset. By integrating One Click LCA alongside 3D BIM modeling and the National Highways’ Carbon Tool, the team was able to conduct early-stage carbon assessments, optimize material selection, and ensure measurable sustainability outcomes.

One Click LCA provided access to a vast, continuously updated environmental product declarations (EPD) database, enabling Arcadis to make data-driven decisions that prioritized lower-carbon materials. The software’s intuitive interface and flexible scenario analysis allowed the team to compare design options in real time, track carbon reduction progress, and seamlessly integrate sustainability considerations into their workflow. Additionally, One Click LCA’s compatibility with Autodesk Revit streamlined data transfer, reducing errors and enhancing efficiency.

As a result, the project is expected to achieve a 30% reduction in carbon emissions compared to the baseline, avoiding approximately 26,700 metric tons of CO2e. This initiative demonstrates Arcadis’ commitment to sustainable infrastructure solutions, benefiting not only the client but also the wider community and environment through lower emissions, cost savings, and improved regional resilience.

History

In 1898, Charles Henry Page and his brother Louis Page formed Page Brother, Architects and focused on designing courthouses and public schools. Charles's son, Charles Henry Page Jr., joined the firm following Louis's death in 1934. A year later, Louis's son, Louis Charles Page Jr., partnered with his college roommate, Louis Southerland, to form the Austin-based firm Page and Southerland. Louis's brother, George Page, would join the firm in 1939 and the name changed to Page Southerland Page. The firm changed its name to just Page in 2013.

In 2022, Page bought the architectural and planning firm, EYP, merging the former Albany-based company's national offices and design portfolio. In 2023, Page acquired Davis Brody Bond, a former New York City-based architecture firm with notable projects including the National September 11 Memorial & Museum, the Portico Gallery at the Frick Collection, and the National Museum of African American History and Culture.

As of 2024, Page operated 21 offices in the US, Mexico, and the United Arab Emirates.

Egnyte decreases the design schedule of a top design and engineering firm by six to seven months.

Challenges
Page needed to find a solution to work together more efficiently. With projects that can have an extensive employee team and up to a hundred external consultants located in multiple cities, Page had files spread across various systems and locations, making finding, sharing, and collaborating on files extremely challenging.

Solution
Now, Page’s plan is to take all the content (that is contractually permissible) off their file servers and move it to Egnyte. To date, they have entirely transitioned their Marketing content to the platform and are now focusing on Accounting, Human Resources, and IT. The goal is to get to the point when all new projects begin in Egnyte.

Results
Page was recently awarded a large healthcare project and their use of Egnyte resulted in significant improvements in file sharing, collaboration and data security.

Egnyte helped shorten the design schedule by 6-7 months, saving 3-4 hours per week through easier coordination.

Brian Walters, Project Manager at Page, stated, "If you had to add it up, Egnyte is one of the many factors that has saved us time on the project...how projects are set up in Egnyte is critical to that success."

Embracing a circular economy isn't just about being environmentally conscious; it's about making a tangible impact on our carbon footprint. Urban Machine's recent project proves how keeping things local plays a pivotal role in sustainability.

We began with reclaimed wood sourced right here in the Bay Area, demonstrating our commitment to reducing transportation emissions. The wood, deconstructed by FERMA Corporation, was given a new lease on life when our innovative robot removed the metal fasteners, reclaiming it for reuse in American Canyon, CA.

ALL BAY MILL & LUMBER COMPANY, also in American Canyon, milled this reclaimed treasure into a canvas for creativity. Corral , located in Oakland, lent their design expertise to craft tables and bookshelves that tell a story of reclaimed history. JOINERY STRUCTURES, also in Oakland, then brought these designs to life with artisanal touches.

The beauty of this project lies not only in its craftsmanship but in its circularity. By keeping it all within the Bay Area, spanning just under 130 miles, we've significantly reduced our carbon footprint.

This wood, once destined for a landfill, will now grace a business right here in our community.

It's proof that the circular economy isn't just a concept but a powerful force for change that offers discarded materials a vibrant second life while minimizing our environmental impact.

Together, let's Salvage the Past to Build the Future, one project at a time.

Circularity for Furniture

We are on a mission to reclaim the millions of tons of wood waste from construction and demolition by reclaiming it into high volume, locally sourced, premium lumber products.

By using AI, The Machine removes staples and nails from reclaimed wood to turn it into premium lumber products. This lowers the carbon footprint and solves the problem of wood waste.

We reclaim & co-create locally sourced premium lumber products, creating a circular economy. In doing this, we preserve secular forests, reduce logistical costs, and allow for the health benefits of wood in our environments to be reaped.

Civix

Civix are a technology forward civil engineering consultancy in New Zealand and Australia. They specialize in large scale land development projects such as master planned communities, commercial sites and underground infrastructure.

Client: Aedifice
Local Engineer: Civix
Project Name: Selo
Location: Auckland, New Zealand
Project Size: 11 acres
Road Network: 5 miles
Tech Solution: Allsite.ai - Service AI 1.0

Project Overview
Aedifice, a leading property development firm, sought to develop the Selo project, a 11-acre residential community in Eden Terrace, Auckland, New Zealand. The project encompassed 243 buildings across 210 lots, with an extensive utility infrastructure involving over 5 miles of sanitary sewer, wastewater, and water supply pipes. To address the complexity of this large-scale development, Aedifice partnered with local engineers Civix who leveraged the innovative Allsite.ai platform, specifically Service AI 1.0, to optimize the design and construction process.


The Challenge
The Selo project faced several challenges due to its size and scope, including the need to design a highly efficient underground pipe network. The requirements were substantial:

555 (2.7 miles) storm drain pipes

385 (1.7 miles) sanitary sewer pipes

536 (2.6 miles) water supply pipes

The intricate design had to meet stringent engineering rules, including proper pipe cover, minimum clearance between pipes, and minimum grades. Additionally, the design needed to be cost-effective, balancing both capital (CAPEX) and operational (OPEX) expenses while minimizing risks of structural conflicts like pipes too close to retaining walls. Flood resilience was also a critical concern, as the area was prone to flooding.


Technology in Action: Allsite.ai's Service AI 1.0
To overcome these challenges, Civix utilized Allsite.ai's Service AI 1.0, an intelligent tool designed to automate and optimize engineering designs. Service AI 1.0 provided a comprehensive solution for the pipe network by:

Setting all pipe invert levels to ensure compliance with engineering rules.
Automatically designing the pipe network to minimize CAPEX and OPEX costs.
Implementing built-in QA checking to detect potential design conflicts, such as pipes near retaining walls.
Automatically sizing pipes based on specified catchments and performing a full flow analysis to ensure optimal performance.
Generating detailed pipe long sections, capacity tables, and plan views that adhered to Auckland City Council standards, eliminating the need for manual drafting.
Calculating trench volumes and setting excavation methods (shoring or benching), improving communication between developers and construction teams.

In addition, semi-automated flood modelling was conducted using the Tuflow flood engine, ensuring the design was resilient against future flood events.



Client Feedback

According to the projects Professional Engineer from Civix, “Using Service AI 1.0 and Allsite.ai, iterations of servicing design took less than an hour. Every pipe invert was designed with no overrides. I was blown away by how accurate it was, creating a design better than a human could—the design had lower construction and operational costs, giving a great result for the client.”



Selo Residential Development

You can book a demo of our technology at https://allsite.ai we then will run a pilot project with you to demonstrate how the tools can integrate into your workflows.

Level AI is a grading optimizer that can perfectly balance large sites whilst designing levels such that roading complies with local rules and all lots can be services with careful consideration of flooding. The inputs to Level AI are a 2d site plan, topographical survey, local rules are pulled from the closest previous project run. The Allsite.ai platform runs on massive GPU clusters in the cloud running billions of iterations to ensure the site perfectly balances. 

Service AI 1.0 automatically designs the servicing network in 3D given a 2d network, sizing pipes and avoiding clashes whilst meeting local clearance requirements. Service AI 2.0 (ready early 2025) will automatically lay out the servicing network in 3d placing pipes in an optimal routing.

Level AI has demonstrated 100x speed-ups on large scale projects, this speed-up allows more layouts to be explored and better outcomes for clients. Case studies in the US have demonstrated the power of the tool, generating over $1 million in earthworks savings on one project alone. Changes to the design are easy, even after construction has started as the site can be rebalanced within hours and a new servicing network designed.
