Building Information Modeling (BIM)
Overview
Related Software
  • Advance Concrete - Advance Concrete is modeling software for structural engineers and detailers seeking a simple to use and completely integrated package in AutoCAD to create all their construction drawings.
  • Advance Design - Advance Design was specifically developed for industry professionals that require a superior solution for the structural analysis and design of Reinforced Concrete and Steel structures. Advance Design features include easy modeling, a powerful FEM analysis engine, top-level design wizards, automated post-processing of results and automated reports.
  • Advance Steel - Advance Steel was specifically developed for industry professionals that require a comprehensive and completely integrated package in AutoCAD. Advance Steel automates the entire structural CAD process (fabrication, erection drawings, various reports) and creates NC fabrication data in AutoCAD.
  • Allplan - Nemetschek Allplan provides object-oriented planning and design software for architects and engineers. It enables users to create architectural and structure models, as well as obtain information on quantities and costs throughout all project phases. What makes this software special is that you can switch between 2D drafting and 3D modeling depending on the project phase or type. In this way, you can combine the best of both worlds and use the approach that suits you best at any time.
  • Framing Worx - Software for design of entire building framing system in one 3D model. Import architectural drawings and start laying out framing plans with intuitive tools. Complete load path from roof to foundation. Export of framing plans to CAD. Framing Worx design materials include wood, cold formed steel and structural steel elements.
  • JetStream - JetStream leading collaborative 3D/4D Design Review software. JetStream improves productivity and quality in the project lifecycle of Building, Plant and Marine construction. Use of JetStream has been proven to reduce waste, increase efficiency, virtually eliminate change orders and helps streamline workflow processes by enabling effective team working. JetStream is compatible with all major CAD software packages, including complete file format interoperability. JetStream is scalable, flexible and has a programmable interface for customization to other third party software and databases.
  • Lateral Worx - Lateral Worx is a versatile program for lateral design of light frame buildings with CAD interface. Comprehensive calculation report and export of shear wall plans to CAD. Design buildings with multiple plate heights, complicated shear transfer and drag elements.
  • ProjectWise - ProjectWise is a scalable collaboration system used by teams to manage, find, and share CAD and geospatial content, project data, and Office documents.
  • Revit Structure - Revit Structure software integrates a multimaterial physical model with an independently editable analytical model for efficient analysis, design, and documentation. Create your own models or import architectural files from AutoCAD Architecture or Revit Architecture. Bidirectional linking to structural analysis software enables accurate model updates, while parametric change management technology coordinates those updates across your documents.
  • Scia Engineer - Scia Engineer analyses, designs and details any type of structure. From the simplest to the most complex construction in concrete, steel, aluminium, plastic, timber or mixed, with integration of the local and international codes and with a link between the analysis and drawing components.
  • Solibri Model Checker - Solibri Model Checker is a software tool that analyzes Building Information Models for integrity, quality, and physical security. Solibri Model Checker X-rays the building model and reveals potential flaws and weaknesses in the design, highlights the clashing components and checks that the model complies with the building codes and organization's own best practices.
  • Tekla Structures - Fully integrated 3D solution that enables creation and management of complete 3D building models regardless of material or structural complexity. The Tekla Structures solution covers the whole structural design process from conceptual design to detailing, and to construction. Tekla Structures now integrates XSteel, which was earlier an independent program for steel detailing.
