Following independent testing of Powdertech Evolution™ and PWF™ through PRA World, these powder coatings together with Landscape™ and Anomatch™ are now certified to meet the NBS (National Building Specification) BIM Object Standard. Certification provides reassurance for you and your customers that the benefits of BIM can be achieved with these objects. Powdertech Collections can be downloaded onto IFC and Revit software platforms.
The NBS library is free to use and is the only BIM object library which links directly to NBS specification software and to the NBS BIM Toolkit – an essential requirement for BIM Level 2.
As an intelligent 3D model-based process, BIM enables architecture, engineering, and construction professionals, to more efficiently plan, design, construct, and manage buildings and infrastructure. They can achieve greater speed through concurrently creating and sharing schedules, diagrams, drawings and estimates whilst the job is progressing. Costs can be lowered as BIM allows for more work to be done by a smaller team, with less process, administration and miscommunication. BIM allows for flexibility in exploring the project design or documentation process and changing it at any time and the digital record of building renovations improves planning and management.
