Solibri - BIM Software for Architects, Engineers and Construction

Tweet

Solibri Model Checker helps to ensure the efficient flow of essential information. This software enables the designers, builders, engineers and managers to access and share up-to-date models more effortlessly. This helps to increase the communication among the project team and influences the smooth execution of the design project. With the Solibri Model Checker, the project stakeholders can also track the evolution of the project. This software also helps to leverage the design models for the management of the building life-cycle with the help of the information takeoffs and classifications.

The most advanced and comprehensive library of customizable rule templates has been offered by the Solibri Model Checker, which helps to handle the quality assurance tasks from the clash detection process and geometric analysis process, the information checking process and others. There are more than 70 predefined rule sets in the Solibri Model Checker. In addition, there are also options which enable users to create their own design that can match their project’s requirements.

Features of Solibri Model Checker

Quality assurance feature

The Solibri software helps to ensure that BIM models will meet the quality standards, thus helping to minimise the risks of errors. Through this software, users can validate design models, annotations and dimensions, which helps to achieve accurate design intent. The free areas around the design objects can also be checked with the help of the Solibri Model Checker. This includes the distance and obstructions for the MEP systems. In addition, the Solibri Model Checker also helps to verify the free space in front of the panels and windows.

Code compliance feature

The Solibri Model Checker also helps to ensure that the BIM models comply with the relevant codes and regulations of the building. The Solibri Model Checker also helps to check the design models against the predefined standards. This helps to highlight the non-compliance issues which need to be addressed.

The building component properties

The Solibri Model Checker helps to verify the BIM guidelines of the project, and this can be done by checking the building component properties. The building component information has been used downstream of the design and construction process.

Specialised checking features

The Solibri Model Checker helps to perform specialised checking procedures, including the protection against fire, protection against earthquake, analysis of the escape route and other processes. This helps to ensure that the specific standards have been met by the BIM models.

Exporting features

The Solibri Model Checker also helps to achieve accurate information for data mining and the calculation process. This software also helps to organise the design objects on the basis of the data, which helps to visualise the BIM data and can export the material quantities.

Customization features

The Solibri Model Checker also enables users to create their own checks on the basis of the extensive rules library. In addition, users can also create new custom rules which can meet the quality assurance checking requirements.

Information-checking tools of Solibri Model Checker to create perfect BIM models

The Solibri Model Checker’s geometry-checking feature helps to allows architects to estimate the height, clearances and other important aspects in the BIM model. The information checking tool of this software enables the architects to produce the 3D models more accurately, which contain accurate semantic information. The Solibri Model Checker has been introduced as a plugin to Allplan, Archicad, and Vectorworks. Thus, the designers and architects are able to check the BIM model information while performing the design processes. A number of information-checking rules have been developed in the Solibri Model Checker, which enables the designers and architects to determine the presence of errors in the project.

Key benefits of using Solibri Model Checker

Solibri software helps integrate the user's design workflows because of its numerous benefits.

Cost-saving benefits

There are no on-site surprises and additional costs while using the Solibri software, as the materials and resources have been calculated on the basis of the correct model data.

Time-saving benefits

The reviewing issues have been found early, which leads to requiring less time.

Environmental saving benefits

Less overspend helps to reduce the volumes and the amount of materials. This leads to the chance of less waste from ordering unnecessary materials.

Interoperability features

Solibri software helps to make sure that the design of the user is usable over time. This makes the design project on OpenBIM software and IFC standards.

Enhances collaboration

The Solibri software helps to combine different disciplines, which helps to enhance communication among different stakeholders.

Reduces the controlling risks

The Solibri software brings quality assurance and quality control features to the AECO industry, which helps to minimise the risks in the design and construction industry.
