Aquatechnik BIM Ready

Aquatechnik now BIM Ready!

The Aquatechnik Safety Multi-Layer Pipe Work System, exclusive to Smith Brothers Stores is now launched in BIM (Building Information Modelling).

What is a BIM System?

BIM is an acronym for Building Information Modelling or Building Information Model. It describes the process of designing a building collaboratively using one coherent system of computer models rather than as separate sets of drawings.

With BIM you are able to view the Aquatechnik System components online, assisting you to select and design pipework distribution systems for your project quickly and efficiently.

The BIM system also allows you generate and manage 3D drawings and demonstrations of a project. This enables Engineers & Designers at the development stages to understand which components are required, and allow a visualisation as to how the system will look and integrate within the wider project structure. The system enables easy access to data, which could include dimensional detail, time-management and programming, cost, environmental impact and life-expectancy of a system.
