BIM custom-bim-documentation-templates

Custom BIM documentation templates

With drawing customization, you can create your own templates for 2D BIM documentation. Spot elevation tags are now included, and automated tag placement is smarter in V21. You can add custom symbolic representations and graphic line overrides on property-based queries. E.g. space area plans, life & fire safety plans, structural floorplans, ...

BIM quantification-and-qto-workflow

Quantification and QTO workflow

We’ve improved the workflow for quantity take-off and schedules, including the extraction of quantity data for individual composition plies. Also, we’re delivering a new properties framework that enables users to create their own, derived quantities, using formulas and expressions.

BIM create-a-bim-from-a-solid-massing-model

Create a BIM from a solid massing model

With BricsCAD BIM’s new massing tools, you can automatically generate a BIM from an (imported) massing model created in the conceptual design phase, allowing you to visually explore and evaluate design alternatives quickly.

BIM create-spaces-and-zones

Create Spaces and Zones

You have unlimited freedom to create Spaces and Zones, using a free-form Direct Modeling approach. Spaces can be simple or complex 3D volumes, or 2D abstractions. These methods deliver the freedom to specify building areas with full freedom.

BIM rvt-import

RVT import

Import your RVT projects straight into BricsCAD importing all the geometry, enabling easy collaboration with teams using Revit®.
Import geometry from Autodesk® Revit®. RVT projects as a reference, or as native solids, to facilitate collaborative workflows in BricsCAD BIM V21.

BIM ifc-import-mapping

IFC import mapping

Aside from IFC performance and stability improvements, you can map internal BIM types with IFC types during import/export giving more control over how entities are exchanged using IFC.

scan-to-bim

Scan to BIM

In BricsCAD BIM V21, we’re continuing the evolution of our Scan to BIM technology with scan alignment tools, planar surface geometry fitting and volume section generation from scan data.

create-planar-patches-point-clouds

Create planar patches & solids from point clouds

When a user selects a point in a point cloud, BricsCAD returns a planar patch that includes all points detected in the current plane. Users can then choose between a rectangular or polygonal boundary for the extracted patch. This rectangular surface can be extended to a planar solid, via automatic detection of nearby co-planar subsets of points.

Pro automatic-story-detection

Automatic story detection in Point Clouds

With POINTCLOUDDETECTFLOORS, you can automatically detect stories within the Point Cloud of a building. BricsCAD will automatically create a volume section for each of the detected floors.

Pro automatic-line-detection

Automatic line detection in Point Clouds

BricsCAD detects lines in point cloud data sets, automatically generating 2D layouts from 3D point clouds. For example, this feature can be used to extract floor plans from scan data.
