BIM
All data from the design and construction phase is stored in an intelligent dynamic 3D model. Architects, building services specialists, engineers, facilities managers (FM), building users and owners can access and use this data to suit their own specific demands. The rationalisation this provides creates a value chain’ for all involved, and results in a more efficient build process, lower costs and improved quality.
IFC 2X3
EliteCAD AR is IFC 2X3 compliant to the full extent of the schema. This allows for the exchange of intelligent and object oriented information with other platforms supporting this standard. The success of buildingSMART (previously known as the International Alliance for Interoperability) is such that an ever increasing number of software publishers have implemented the IFC standard, which provides connectivity to calculation, tender, building services, energy analysis, environmental analysis etc. software systems. Due to the fact that IFC is in the public domain, versus the ownership by a single software vendor, the AEC industry is now able to produce buildings with virtually no cost of failure allowing all participants in the value chain to benefit.
