Architecture Solutions
In building design, for those looking to move from 2D or 3D worlds into BIM there are two excellent choices from leading system providers, Bentley and Nemetschek.
From Bentley, AECOsim Building Designer, provides the leader in its class in terms of scalable, multi-disciplined and managed building design capability. MicroStation and Powerdraft brands are included together with high quality rendering. For extended collaboration Bentley Navigator offers a great choice for extended collaboration, markup and 4D construction. Bentley also provides ProjectWise, for team collaboration, document and information management to manage your BIM content and deliverables.
From Nemetschek, the latest release of the Vectorworks line of CAD and BIM design solution delivers an exciting suite of capabilities that will enhance your workflows and improve your design process. From streamlined project sharing, which allows your team to work concurrently in the same Vectorworks file, to subdivision modelling tools based on the design techniques of Pixar Animation Studios, designers will be poised to transform the world like never before.
Engineering Solutions
For engineering companies looking to harness their information workflows and manage their documents then there is no better solution on the market than ProjectWise from Bentley.
ProjectWise is the only project collaboration and AECO information management software developed explicitly for the design and construction of architecture, engineering, construction, and operations (AECO) of infrastructure projects.
Cadventure engineering solutions are provided by Bentley to address structural, mechanical and electrical design modelling and analysis.
For Structural Engineers:AECOsim Building Designer provides structural engineers with key advantages that help them improve project quality, reduce risk, and save money in the design and documentation of structural systems.
With RAM, STAAD, and ProStructures you have the most comprehensive structural products on the market. Bentley’s flexible and scalable products allow seamless workflow of analysis, design, detailing, documentation, and BIM data for building, plant, and civil applications. Completely integrated (ISM) offerings are available for reinforced concrete, post-tensioned concrete, steel, wood, cold-formed steel, aluminium, and masonry.
For Mechanical Engineers:AECOsim Building Designer provides mechanical engineers with key advantages that help them improve project quality, reduce risk, and save money in the design and documentation of air-handling and plumbing systems.
For Electrical Engineers:AECOsim Building Designer provides electrical engineers with key advantages that help them improve project quality, reduce risk, and save money in the design and documentation of building electrical systems.
For extended collaboration Bentley Navigator offers a great choice for extended collaboration, mark-up and 4D construction.
To complement design model delivery for extended presentation, Cadventure offers an affordable and professional a 3D Printing Bureau service, with a 24hr delivery service. Cadventure can also provide 3D printers from 3DS for those who need their own in house capability.
Construction Solutions
Cadventure provides a range of construction solutions to meet the needs of small to large construction contractors
Construction teams face challenges everyday with often complex and ambitious projects, tight delivery schedules and distributed team members. All of these factors drive the need for efficient project planning and protecting profit by reducing risk while ensuring optimum safety and completing the job to the highest possible standard. Advanced construction planning and modelling offers benefits by providing a greater level of detail earlier on in the process, thus improving workflow and ensuring better utilisation of resources on-site.
The construction software solutions offered by Cadventure can help to bridge the gap between the design's specification and the requirements for construction by aiding constructability analysis, providing construction sequencing simulation and ensuring timely and accurate material procurement and delivery to site. The result? Increased predictability, better up-front planning, improved utilisation of resources and lowered costs.
BIM
What is BIM?BIM is not a piece of software, a product or even a single process. It should be regarded as an approach that enables a building design to be better understood by all who interact with it. BIM is a way or working; it is information modelling and information management in a team environment. Bringing together all of the information about every component of a building in one place, BIM reduces the risk of errors, discrepancies, and the associated costs.
Why do I need BIM?The UK Construction industry is experiencing a BIM revolution. The future is digital and BIM is the solution for efficient design, construction and long-term facility management. With Government initiatives and a competitive drive to improve construction effectiveness in AEC, BIM is inevitable.
Using BIM data, a building can be illustrated throughout its entire lifecycle from inception and design, through occupation to demolition. For the designer, BIM enables efficiency, effective collaboration, improved design co-ordination, quicker project delivery, reduced cost and risk that drives the ability to win more business.
