New release provides optimized user interface, improved features, and tighter integration between the cloud and the desktop
Autodesk, Inc. (NASDAQ:
ADSK) is launching a new version of Autodesk BIM 360 Glue, a
cloud-based Building Information Modeling
(BIM) solution. Autodesk BIM 360 Glue extends the BIM process from design to
construction by providing all stakeholders access to project information for
model coordination and clash detection via desktop, mobile and web.
“Autodesk’s
cloud and mobile technologies are untethering BIM from the desktop, allowing
extended project teams to more effectively collaborate and coordinate projects
with greater speed and power.”
The
introduction of mobile devices into the construction industry is transforming
the way that projects are built and managed. With BIM 360 Glue, enhanced
cloud-based collaboration and mobile access help ensure that the entire project
team can participate in the coordination process, minimizing the coordination
cycles and providing teams with tools to view the designs wherever they are
located. Extended project design and construction teams can use one-click
access to review the latest project models and run clashes in real-time, saving
time and money on design and construction projects.
The new
release provides a redesigned and optimized user interface as well as support
for larger project models, and improved coordination with Autodesk Revit, Autodesk AutoCAD, and Autodesk AutoCAD Civil 3D.
With BIM 360 Glue, users can move more seamlessly between Autodesk Navisworks
software products and BIM 360 Glue for more intelligent and connected
workflows. Now supporting more than 50 different 3D formats, customers can use
BIM 360 Glue for team-based coordination and then bring the coordinated models
directly into Navisworks software. From there they can take the project even
further with advanced analysis, 4D animated timelines, and model-based
quantification. The updated BIM 360 Glue mobile app also provides better
anti-aliasing and support for Navisworks models to deliver virtually “anywhere
access” to critical project data.
“BIM is
transforming the AEC industry; this happened first in architecture and more
recently in construction,” said Amar Hanspal, Autodesk senior vice president of
information modeling products “Autodesk’s cloud and mobile technologies are
untethering BIM from the desktop, allowing extended project teams to more
effectively collaborate and coordinate projects with greater speed and power.”
Rodd
Merchant, senior vice president of JE Dunn, said, “We believe BIM 360 Glue will
take our construction services to the next level.” JE Dunn Construction is a
leading provider of construction management services, design-build, and
integrated project delivery.
Coordinating
models across the extended project team requires significant file management,
which can slow down the collaboration process. With BIM 360 Glue, the extended
project team has one-click access to the latest models in the cloud at any
time, simplifying coordination and allowing contributors to run their own
clashes, reducing the coordination cycle and helping save on project duration
and cost.
The
latest release of BIM 360 Glue and 30-day free trial are available as of May 13th,
2013 and are available globally, sold and supported in English.
