A new software tool for architects can deliver building information modeling (BIM) data directly to an Autodesk® Revit® project. AcmeBIM Online builds on two existing visualization tools hosted at Acme’s website, Masonry Designer and Design Online. Similar to these two products, AcmeBIM Online allows users to select brick from a visual catalog by name or by color family. After making a selection, users can preview brick as a simulated panel or building elevation, and can change mortar colors.
BIM-compliant technical data is available for every brick in the AcmeBIM Online database. Compiled in 36 different categories, BIM data can be imported into a Revit project using the plug-in version.
