Avatech Revit 2009 Utilities Available
 BALTIMORE,
MD, June 5, 2008 - Avatech Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB: AVSO.OB), the nationwide
technology experts for design, engineering, and facilities, has announced
the update of its popular Avatech Revit Utilities software—five productivity
tools for the Autodesk Revit family of products. Avatech originally
developed these tools to increase the productivity and efficiency of their
Revit implementation clients. Today, Avatech continues its support of Revit
users by updating these five tools with great new features and providing
them free of charge to all members of the Revit community. Developed by
Avatech’s Software Development Solutions group, these updated plug-ins to
Revit are available now at
www.avatech.com/web/revitutilities.
- Room Renumber enables Revit Architecture users to
automate the renumbering of existing rooms based on any user-defined order.
Rooms can also be added to an existing series and subsequent rooms
intelligently renumbered to make space for the inserted number. NEW
FOR 2009: Now handles increments between room numbers.
- Door Mark Update surveys all doors and rooms in a
building model to determine the proper mark for each door. Specifically
designed for companies who use the room that a door swings into as the mark,
Door Mark Update allows Revit users to inspect and override suggested marks
and then updates all marks, compiling a new schedule and door tag
annotations to reflect any changes. NEW FOR 2009: Now
provides user-specified suffixes where a room has more than one door. Also
now supports swapping the door TO/FROM definition to match the door swing
(works with Revit 2009 only).
- Many design firms have standards regarding labeling, but sometimes they
are difficult to enforce or are inadvertently ignored. In either case,
mistakes are tedious to rectify. Change Case scans through a document set
and enforces case standards, automatically updating BIM data for rooms and
views to meet company or client standards. NEW FOR 2009:
Added support for new element/parameter combinations (Text Note Text, View
Title on Sheet).
- Revit City Browser enables designers to browse to the
popular RevitCity.com Web site directly inside of Revit, pull down content,
and add it automatically to their projects. The utility also assists users
in renaming the content and storing it in the proper library folder--all in
one step.
- Earth Connector for Revit enables designers to export
building information models from Revit into Google Earth so that projects
can be viewed in their surrounding environment. It includes 4-D construction
phasing that allows designers, developers, and owners to watch how phases of
their project will be built over time. NEW FOR 2009: Added
an alternative mechanism for showing the Revit model origin; Added another
way of specifying an alternate model origin for use in Google Earth; and
resolved non-English locale issues.
“Revit Utilities save users time and effort by streamlining repetitive
and tedious, yet necessary, tasks,” says Matt Mason, director of Software
Development Solutions at Avatech. “These utilities are just a small example
of how our Software Development Group works with clients to provide custom
solutions that help them gain competitive advantages.”
