Through an in-depth SmartBIM Object Creation Services, BPMs can rely on Reed to create high-quality, real world objects with embedded quality data (RSMeans). In addition, we've made it easy for architects to manage these manufacturer specific objects as well as generic objects in Revit within the SmartBIM Library.

BIM is becoming the foundation of building design, visualization studies, contract documents, analysis, simulation and facilities management. Autodesk Revit is the dominant BIM authoring application and Revit's market penetration into architectural firms is occurring three times faster than the market penetration of 2D CAD in the 1980s. In the next few years, the majority of all projects will be modeled in Revit.

High-quality, need-specific, and re-usable BIM content will be an enabling factor for successful BIM-based projects and the use of BIM downstream of design. However, developing and managing objects introduces new challenges for design firms because of the need to represent 3D geometry and encode other kinds of information. The cost and resources needed to develop objects can detract from designing and delivering buildings, which is the core focus of an architectural firm.

Solibri Model Checker is out of the box software solution that analyzes Building Information Models for integrity, quality and physical safety. The system offers easy-to-use visualization with an intuitive walk-in functionality. With a single mouse click, the system 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 best practices.

Solibri Model Checker adds value throughout the life cycle of the building. It is extensively used by a growing number of building owner and users, construction companies, architects and engineering firms. Solibri Model Checker is a valuable tool for:

• Building owners checking designs against program requirements


• Architects and Engineers delivering cost-effectively high quality 3D building information models


• Construction companies obtaining reliable and up-to-date cost estimates


• Facilities Management FM operations for checking material life-cycle and maintainability

Trelligence is a Houston-based software company focused on enhancing the early architectural design process with real-time design+analysis tools built on top of domain-specific knowledge templates. Targeted at the worldwide architectural, engineering, construction and owner/developer (AECO) market, the Trelligence Affinity patent-pending software integrates with existing CAD and other design tools to extend the benefits of Building Information Modeling (BIM) – faster planning, less rework and better team communication – to the early design phase of complex building projects.

BIM integration:
Affinity for ArchiCAD and Affinity for Revit deliver 2-way integration with ArchiCAD from Graphisoft and Revit Architecture from Autodesk. The Affinity model is easily loaded into these BIM design tools, providing the designer with realtime access to the Affinity space program and detailed project requirements throughout the detailed design phase. As the design progresses, Affinity provides ongoing analysis of the design’s compliance to the program requirements, alerting the designer to program violations, and enabling the design team to make informed decisions – reducing later rework and helping to deliver designs that meet the clients’ requirements.
