Synopsis
Buildings are designed for people. Understand how pedestrian simulation helps to pre-examine an infrastructure’s performance and functionality during the design process. See examples of how enhanced pedestrian flow capabilities in LEGION Simulator can improve any infrastructure’s design and pedestrian experience and safety.
The webinar will also discuss how the contextual changes over the years of operation, like social distancing due to COVID-19, can be incorporated into the design using pedestrian simulation for rail/metro projects, air industry, commercial projects and stadiums.
You will learn about:
- The concept of people flow analysis
- The movement algorithm that explains how pedestrian simulation can reflect the behavior of real people
- How LEGION Simulator relates to BIM applications including OpenBuildings Designer
How pedestrian simulation can help project owners make informed decisions, minimizing investment cost while maximizing the functionality and service lifespan of the infrastructure

Frederick Frank
Senior Consultant
Virtuosity, A Bentley Company
Frederick joined Legion in 1999 and Bentley Systems by acquisition in 2018. He has delivered many of Legion’s key client projects and made substantial contributions to product development and reference & training materials, as well as delivering training courses in the UK & overseas. He has worked on mainline and metropolitan rail stations in the Americas, the UK, Europe, and the Far East. Most notably, after the initial implementation of TranSantiago (in Santiago, Chile) doubled Metro ridership, resulting in passenger deaths, the sacking of Metro’s Chief Executive, and the eventual downfall of Michelle Bachelet’s government, Frederick led a consortium team of civil and safety engineers to successfully change Metro’s organization and deliver immediate and medium-term solutions for twelve break-down stations to the Board of Santiago Metro. Frederick has also developed operational solutions for the Sydney Olympic Park, the Olympic Athletics Centre for Athens, and the London 2012 Olympic Bid; trained several Design Institutes to use Legion software for the Beijing Olympic Games; and, delivered solutions for Tokyo’s unsuccessful bid for 2016.
Frederick graduated from University College London with a BSc (Hons) in Information Management, speaks fluent Italian and was recently awarded a Weekend Executive MBA with Merit from Imperial College.
