building information modeling solutions

Autodesk® Revit® Architecture software helps architects and designers work naturally, design freely, and deliver projects efficiently. Purpose-built for building information modeling (BIM), Revit Architecture helps you explore design concepts and forms, and better maintain your design data through documentation and construction. With parametric change technology, any change you make is automatically updated throughout your project, keeping your design and documentation coordinated and more reliable. Share essential BIM data with your partners for a more collaborative, integrated building design process. Support a more efficient design process that enables improved sustainable design analysis, clash detection, construction planning, and material fabrication.

Autodesk® 3ds Max® Design 2012 software delivers powerful new rendering toolsets, enhanced iterative workflows, and an accelerated graphics core that together help increase overall productivity. Featuring the physically accurate iray® renderer from mental images, versatile procedural textures, and stylized rendering capabilities, 3ds Max Design 2012 helps designers present their creative vision more effectively. Moreover, with the Nitrous render-quality accelerated viewports, designers can more rapidly iterate on their ideas to achieve more compelling end results. And, with new interoperability with Autodesk® Alias® industrial design applications and automated workflows with AutoCAD® Civil 3D® software, designers can more seamlessly aggregate their CAD data into powerful storytelling visualizations.

Autodesk® Revit® MEP Building Information Modeling (BIM) software is built for mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) designers and engineers. Integrated design, analysis, and documentation tools support more accurate and efficient building systems design from concept through to construction. Key features facilitate:

Autodesk® Navisworks® project review software products help architecture, engineering, and construction professionals gain control over project outcomes. Integrate, share, and review 3D models and multiformat data with all your project stakeholders. Autodesk® Navisworks® Simulate, Autodesk® Navisworks® Manage, and Autodesk® Navisworks® Freedom software include tools to simulate and optimize scheduling, identify and coordinate clashes and interferences, collaborate with project teams, and gain insight into potential problems before construction begins. Navisworks supports Building Information Modeling (BIM) for building and infrastructure, as well as 3D model-based design for process and power plants.
