DigiPara Ships Elevatorarchitect Plug-in for Autodesk Revit
FRENCHEN, Germany, June 6, 2011 - DigiPara GmbH is announcing the release of
Elevatorarchitect, the first plug-in to create elevator models within
Autodesk Revit software. The plug-in allows Revit users to easily find the
correct size and number of required elevators that are available for their
building in their region and import them into their Revit project.
Elevatorarchitect, available as a free download, greatly simplifies and
enhances the design workflow as the placing and adjustment of single Revit
families are eliminated.
When adding an elevator model into a Revit project, many Revit users are
unsure where to begin and don’t know the corresponding requirements like the
type or number of required elevators. Many users also struggle with placing
and adjusting the correct Revit families into their building.
Elevatorarchitect was developed in close collaboration with Revit experts,
architects and BIM managers to enhance and standardize the design process
for creating 3-D elevator models inside Autodesk Revit software. Easy to use
wizards support the Revit user in finding the correct size elevators and
professionally guiding them to the point of reaching an optimal 3-D Revit
model. Free optimized families, which include all types of elevators
(hydraulic, ropedhydraulic and traction, with and without machine room)
allows Revit users to create complex elevator groups within seconds. By
exploring the key physical and functional BIM characteristics, all elevator
data are instantly illustrated in the Revit schedule.
The current manufacturer library includes common global, European and
American elevator series from Kone, Otis, Schindler and ThyssenKrupp. There
are more than 100,000 combinations of car sizes, payloads, heights or speeds
available. With the integrated update service, Revit users who are linked to
the internet can be sure that they always have the latest elevator types and
dimensions available.
