For anyone who is interested in learning more about glass and its use
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is an intelligent 3D-modelling process that provides the insight and tools to efficiently plan, design, construct, and manage buildings and infrastructure.
Acknowledging that most architects and engineers already work with BIM, we have developed additional BIM tools that allow the download of standardized Guardian BIM content and the creation of project-specific BIM files. These can be used in any window or glazing system already in their BIM files.
To enable the broadest on-demand access to BIM files, Guardian has published our global product portfolio on BIMobject.com, the world’s leading BIM content platform. Direct access to this can be found here:
For those ready to move beyond standard BIM files with project-specific BIM content from Guardian, we’re introducing the latest version of our BIM Generator tool. This can help designers and industry professionals fully utilize the latest BIM technology and streamline their design process. The BIM Generator is also available on-demand, 24/7.
As part of Guardian’s Glass Analytics™ suite of online tools, the BIM Generator provides users with direct access to custom BIM files involving glass make-ups. These range from monolithic glass through to more complex combinations of glass, coatings, interlayers, and frits.
Not only does this help craft the final level of detail for construction documents, the BIM content comes pre-loaded with all the relevant product information and metadata, so Revit schedules will be more detailed and accurate. Your schematics will also be accurately tagged, with no additional work required.
Project-specific BIM content from the innovative Guardian BIM Generator is available via:
