» CSC releases Revit Integrator
Leading structural software developer, CSC, today announces the release of its ground breaking new BIM integration tool, Revit Integrator. This unique and free tool enables structural engineers and technicians to synchronize models between Autodesk Revit Structure and CSC's steel building design software, Fastrak, and concrete building design software, Orion.
“Revit Integrator is a major step forward for all those companies involved in Structural BIM, giving enhanced control to the technicians and engineers who share, amend and synchronize models”, comments Kevin Lea, BIM Business Development Manager at CSC. “This new functionality will enable synchronization of models to take place throughout the entire project, without compromising existing or new modeling work.”
Revit Integrator enables engineers to filter groups of structural objects, ignore geometrical changes, communicate end forces, openings and stiffeners, and intelligently map family types between modeling systems.
This new tool also highlights what’s been added, changed or deleted during synchronization, thus enabling engineers to react to changes quickly and reduce the risk of errors.
“The seamless integration between Fastrak and Orion, and Revit Structure, improves project communication and increases productivity as engineers and technicians can report and manage incremental model changes easily”, comments Lea.
CSC is a strategic Autodesk partner, and offers technical support, training and consultancy services to help users maximize the benefits of Structural BIM. CSC’s Revit Integrator is compatible with Revit Structure 2011 and 2012 and can be seen at this year’s Autodesk’s University in Las Vegas on the 29th November to 1st December. The free download is available at www.cscworld.com.
