Presizing reinforced concrete footings directly in Advance Design


An important advantage of the innovating multi-platform Advance BIM Designers collection of apps that allow automatic generation of 3D reinforcement for reinforced concrete elements is the possibility of direct integration into the interface of the Advance Design calculation software.

One of the many benefits of this integration is a more efficient footing presizing process, after the structure is modelled and a FEM analysis is performed directly in Advance Design.

Advance BIM Designers reuses all information related to material, size or forces in a support and automatically generates reinforcement cages, drawings and reports, based on user-defined reinforcement assumptions.

Advance BIM Designers – Positive feedback at Autodesk University 2014


GRAITEC’s presentation at the 2014 Autodesk University, this December in Las Vegas, was a great success, where almost 100 participants attended the class.

Key speakers for the class were:

  • Carl Spalding – Group Product Strategy Director, GRAITEC Innovation
  • Joseph PAIS – Analysis & Design Product Line Manager, GRAITEC Innovation

The main focus of the presentation was to emphasize the power of automation possible for Reinforced Concrete Structures from a BIM model in Revit that contains not just the analytical model but also the design and results data. Advance BIM Designers, GRAITEC’s new range of Revit performance extensions is set to disrupt the traditional workflow engineering and is positioned as the next-generation software for analysis, intuitive modelling, automatic drawing and report creation directly from Revit.

Although the product is scheduled to be released next year, the announcement of Advance BIM Designers was received with excitement, many attendees being very impressed with the level of automation and the design driven reinforced requirements of the product.

GRAITEC customers already have big expectations for the BIM Designers enabling them to harness the potential of a true BIM workflow centred around Revit, meaning Revit will not only be a 3D CAD tool, but a real BIM platform,which also includes analysis to manage the whole project.

AU2014 is the ideal event to experience inspirational seminars on everything related to design and engineering and a great opportunity to introduce new technologies. As an innovative developer GRAITEC were invited to deliver a class at Autodesk University focusing on reinforced concrete design and detailing in Revit. Considering the opportunity GRAITEC decided to use this platform to bring forward the introduction of their new range of powerful Revit extensions, called Advance BIM Designers, only due to be released mid next year.

GRAITEC Advance BIM Designers combine analysis, intuitive modelling and automatic drawing and report creation directly from within the Revit environment. The power to automate and control complex manual design-based processes, bridges the ‘analytical and detailed model data-sharing’ gap between engineers and designers. GRAITEC Advance BIM Designers represent the core BIM concept of a ‘single-model’ approach and are set to lead the next-generation of BIM software applications for automation, design optimization and complete interoperability.

GRAITEC has been at the forefront of software development for over 30 years, with their innovative BIM technology considerably increasing productivity, capability, accuracy and safety across the AEC industry and the new range of Advance BIM Designers are tipped to take this to the next level.

Autodesk University 2014 will be held at Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas on Tuesday 2nd to Thursday 4th December.

If you are attending AU2014 why not join our class “SE6512- Take advantage of BIM for reinforced concrete structures” to learn what the future of BIM automation will look like.
