Caneco BIM - Checking and implementing electrical objects in a Building Information Model0 pages

CANECO BIM

Caneco BIM is a software tool allowing electrical data exchange between a
BIM project and ALPI’s suite of software.
Caneco BIM is used to check and input electrical information in a Building
Information Model. Electrical data are then exported onto Caneco BT to
define the cross section cables and the protective devices.
Finally, Caneco results are reimported to enhance BIM project.

Checking and implementing electrical objects
in a Building Information Model
Check and validate electrical installation
designed with Autodesk® Revit® MEP,
using Caneco BT
t

t Facilitates joint work between the Autodesk® Revit® MEP
technology and Caneco BT standards.

Forward the 3D numerical model of
the electrical installation to contractor
working with AutoCAD® software

t Recognises and translates all Revit object families having
electrical connections.

t Provides specific details of cables routing in cable trays.
t Managed and optimized cable trays congestion.

t Allows to define the power requirement mode in either
t Autodesk® Revit® MEP or Caneco BT.
t Adjusts cables lengths by adding ratio percentage.
t

t Facilitates joint work between the Autodesk® Revit® MEP
and AutoCAD® software standards.

t Facilitates printing reports of cable cards and cutting book.
t

t Allows the installer to enhance all the electrical installation
details received from the numerical model designer.

t Updates automatically electrical properties of Revit objects
after calculation and sizing onto Caneco BT.

Exchange electrical data
from the BIM project
with other participants
t Import / Export with Caneco BT.
t Export to AutoCAD® using Caneco Implantation.
t Export project data to Excel.
t Export the entire project to Caneco format.
