Revit software app now available

Graitec, the Building Information Modeling (BIM) and CAD software developer, has announced its file collaboration and interoperability app for Revit is now available as a free download directly from its Autodesk Exchange App Store.

This free extension for Autodesk Revit from Graitec is said to provide bi-directional, intelligent Structural BIM model sharing, including the transfer of FEM results data, between Graitec Advance BIM Suite and Autodesk Revit Architecture, Autodesk Revit MEP, Autodesk Revit Structure and Autodesk Advance Steel products.

According to Graitec, sharing both the geometrical shapes together with analytical FEM results, creates a new pathway of intelligence-driven BIM workflows which assures a more robust “platform” ready to utilize the high-level of automation promised by the next-generation BIM technology.

Graitec BIM Connect also supports multi-discipline and multi-platform workflows, enabling import and export of recognized industry BIM and collaboration formats.

BIM technology is changing how buildings, infrastructure and utilities are planned, designed and built. It is now essential to have intelligent BIM workflows in place to retain the integrity of models and associated data. Using BIM Connect as part of an intelligent BIM workflow makes it easy to link Revit models with its counterpart analytical model from GRAITEC Advance Suite.
