REVIT BIM families — cable trays, pipes, switchs and relays, electrical boxes

TDM trage company has ordered Autodesk REVIT Families development in Soft4Cad.

TDM trage company has ordered Autodesk REVIT Families development in Soft4Cad.

The first stage in the DB, families or software development is the writing of high-quality technical requirement (TR). Properly created TR is already 50% of the success.

This document (TR) establishes the basic requirements for components-families of electrical cabinets and boxes manufactured by TDM trade Company.

Our Revit components (in-place REVIT Families) may be used in the electrical projects, architecture and design, created with the Autodesk Revit.

General requirements for components-families:

Criteria

Requirements

1

File format and version

RFA 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 

2

     File size of one 3D model

Less than 1.5 MB

3

Development level

Exact overall dimensions. The external image corresponds to the real one. Level is LOD 300

4

Three levels of detail

For cabinets, boxes: in low and medium detail – the designation of dimensions, in high - the model of the family

5

The format of the result of the work and the method of transmission

 1.     Component-family files in RFA format

2.     A file with the all families in RVT format

Transmission method: Internet
