01

Model in

Start from the drawings, the analysis model or the BIM model.

Tower checker

Several architect's PDFs in, plans aligned, one floor on every level.

IFC and BIM

Import an IFC model from Revit, Tekla or ArchiCAD. Export the takedown as IFC.

Drawings to model

Import PDF plans, trace with snapping, and place each element once for every level.

Analysis to BIM

ETABS model in, checked and scheduled, out as IFC and a Revit-ready schedule.

02

Modelling

Walls, floors, roofs, beams and columns, every level at once.

Building strategy

Stack every level's plan on one grid, mark go and no-go zones, and see where a column clashes.

Scheme designer

Lay out a frame on the architect's plans and size slabs and beams from their spans.

03

Loads and results

Tributary areas and the load at every base, live as you draw.

Load takedown

Tributary areas and the load at every wall and column base, live as you edit.

Masonry walls

Stress in every wall, lintels over openings, cavity walls leaf by leaf.

04

Checks

An independent takedown to check another model against.

Check analysis loads

Compare the column loads from ETABS with an independent takedown, column by column.

05

Outputs

Reports, schedules and models to hand on.

Column schedule

Column types up the height, rationalised to fewer sizes, out to Excel and Revit.

A full calc report, the architect's sheets marked up, Word, Excel and IFC.
