Multi-CAD Data, Unified Design - An exclusive e-book by Chad Jackson

Chad Jackson, the most recognized Lifecycle Insights analyst, has published an exclusive e-book through which he briefly narrates how the latest tools facilitate to retrieve productivity. The will focus on the following key topics:-

• Be familiar performing with multi-CAD data and how it provides an effect on your bottom line.

• Be aware of the challenges that may arise performing with diverse design tools.

• Find out solutions that enhance productivity amid your design engineers.

Now-a-day, the number of participants associated with the product design process, are increasing significantly. If contributors are dealing with various CAD tools, collaboration becomes at risk. One can lose several hours or a complete day for availing precise geometry while shifting a 3D model from one CAD platform to another. Even delicate adjustments can turn out to be a major task.

Avail this book.

Tekla Structures 20 to Improve Construction Workflow

Atlanta: Well known for providing BIM software to the global engineering and construction markets, Tekla announced the availability of Tekla Structures 20. Tekla assured that this latest version of Tekla’s BIM software, Structures 20 Software, will accelerate the construction information and workflow by rendering the means to organize models properly, prevent structural clashes and manage tasks. Besides, the constructible models developed with Tekla can integrate more detailed information than it could have done earlier.

Tekla Structures, launched in 2004, helps to model, detail, fabricate and build various buildings, bridges, and sports complexes. The software is specifically designed to work flawlessly with Tekla BIMsight, which is a free online tool and portal for construction project collaboration.

With BIM penetrating the construction industry processes, architectural trends, today, are producing highly complex shapes, buildings are incorporating more refined technology, and information exchange is becoming progressively more essential. And Tekla Structures 20 software is competent to meet this demand by increasing the capacity of constructible Tekla models to smoothly manage huge amounts of information required to precisely reflect the detail included in complex build structures.

The new tools support better information management as Tekla Structures 20 offers more detailed information and flexibility to modeling, while minimizing the requirement for manual data transfer. The software enhances the flow of information from design, purchasing and production to the shop floor. It also offers various links to architectural and design solutions to eliminate the technical and compatibility obstacles that include workflow between subcontractors and project teams employing varied types of applications.

Tekla Structures 20 improves project team communication and collaboration by offering the detail required for building complex structures, providing process-improving tools, and smoothly working with other software applications, and thus delivering on the promise of BIM for the construction industry.

Tekla Structures 20 provides several improved tools that simplify the management of the massive amounts of constructible building information required for contemporary structures:

• Organizer: It helps to deliver efficient model information management and better automation.
• Task Manager: It offers an organized method to plan detailing, fabrication and erection on site.
• Clash Check Manager: It permits communicating, assigning, coordinating and preventing structural conflicts before they appear on site to save money and time.

Home Builders can produce a smarter estimate with BIM Pipeline

BIM Pipeline refers to a web supported, rules motivated material management and estimation system that applies BIM data to directly undertake comprehensive take-offs.

BIM Pipeline facilitates builders to control BIM data for producing complete master plan estimates through delta BOM reports for options, lot specific as built reports to directly cut purchase orders as well as confine changes focused on customer to track client customizations, all self-governing of the source of the BIM data. Builders can now find a way out to bridge the historical gap proficiently & perfectly amid design and estimation and minimize cycle times.

BIM Pipeline was specially designed for home builders to perform exact material takeoffs and rapidly understand their construction costs. The module based design facilitates builders to opt for the features for fulfilling their current goals.

BIM Pipeline uses and clarifies BIM data directly from numerous leading BIM applications like AutoCAD Architecture, Revit, Vertex BD, and VisionRez. Then it links design, sales, estimation, and purchasing by incorporating with back office system directly. It also outputs to Excel or homogeneous XML for incorporating with other back office systems.

BIM Pipeline comes up with three different modules as mentioned below:-

Builder module: It allows the users to handle all the consistent assets concerning a home builder and manage exactly what’s getting built.

Cloud estimating module: With Cloud Estimation the users will be able to get it all together by transmitting the BIM direct data to a full bill of materials.

Costing module: With the Costing Module you can prevent redundant tasks by using a complete BOM to align with various vendor's costs and establish a true cost to construct.

BIM Pipeline offers the following benefits to construction professionals:-

• Connect design to estimating for precise automated takeoffs
• Scale operations devoid of adding staff
• Enhance net margins
• Leverage the identified costs of a production builder, whereas facilitating customer specific changes to be happened and remain profitable.
• Commanding rules based estimating
• Job estimates provided "as built"
• On-the-fly Delta +/- estimates for model/options
• Recognized custom changes added to budget
• Constantly or quickly progress into BIM technology at your own pace with a flexible 3 phased implementation approach.
• Better manage options, communities, houses, and jobs.

Autodesk acquires BIM based softwares for enhancing the bridge and road workflows

Autodesk, Inc. recently acquired 3d model oriented design and analysis software from two individual British firms. This acquisition will facilitate the development of road and bridge workflows.

Autodesk acquired Sam from Bestech Systems Ltd. It is a pack of software modules designed for the load analysis in the design of small to medium span bridges. Sam can be very effective to minimize the design deviation of bridge analysis and bridge deck design.


Autodesk procures AutoTrack from Savoy Computing Services Ltd, an Autodesk Industry Partner and a member of the Autodesk Developer Network. AutoTrack is a package of software modules intended for road, light rail, airport, parking and intersection analysis. Architects, designers and engineers can utilize it in infrastructure planning design.


AutoTrack evaluates the operations of steered vehicles, light rail vehicles and aircraft (alias vehicle swept path analysis), and offers design tools for parking areas and circumlocutions at the time of drafting in AutoCAD-based environments.

The two platforms widespread its Building Information Modeling (BIM) for infrastructure software portfolio and will assist in enhancing the acceptability of BIM for transportation design.
