Description
OpenBuildings Designer, previously known as AECOsim Building Designer, is Bentley's comprehensive solution for multi-discipline building information modeling (BIM). It enables users to explore, innovate, and expedite the design and construction of buildings more efficiently than ever before. With the ability to design, analyze, document, and visualize structures of varying sizes and complexities, it enhances communication of design intent while overcoming obstacles between different building disciplines and teams located in different regions. The software empowers users to advance their building information modeling practices, leading to quicker project delivery and increased assurance in aspects such as design integrity, workflow efficiency, and overall productivity. By fostering collaboration among architects, mechanical, electrical, and structural engineers through a unified set of tools and processes, it streamlines project management. Furthermore, users can seamlessly integrate information from various formats and confidently tackle projects of all scales, ensuring that their design intentions are communicated clearly with customizable and dependable deliverables. This comprehensive approach ultimately transforms the building design process, making it more cohesive and effective.
Description
Vertex BD serves as a comprehensive BIM solution tailored for medium to large residential builders. This software facilitates the creation of architectural and structural drawing sets, fabrication drawings, material reports, manufacturing data, and marketing renderings, all derived from a singular building model. By automating the generation of site-specific drawing sets, Vertex BD enables production home builders to conserve significant hours that would otherwise be spent recreating drawings for various customer-selected house options. Component manufacturers and panelizers primarily utilize Vertex BD as panel prefab software, streamlining the creation of wall and floor panel fabrication drawings, structural layouts, cut lists, and additional material reports. This automation not only saves manufacturers a remarkable amount of design, drafting, and estimation time but also significantly reduces the risk of errors during construction. Furthermore, Vertex BD is compatible with both wood and cold-formed steel construction methods, making it a versatile tool in the building industry. Its ability to integrate various aspects of the building process into one platform enhances efficiency and accuracy across projects.
