Digital Design Tools - Building Services

Matthew Menzies
Hi All.


I'm new to this local forum and thought I would start a thread. I work in building services as an electrical design engineer and am interested if we have any other building services engineers that are interested in digital design development? In particular I am interested in Revit/MagiCAD/ProDesign 3D tools and linking with others that use these tools and share an interest in pushing these tools to their limits.


I'll post some more later, just wanted to get a feel for the types on engineer we have in the forum.


Cheers

Matthew

    Hi Rob. Thanks for your reply. I have trialed Electrical OM and had a demo from their development team. I really liked the way that it integrated with Revit, particularly the ability to push information in both directions. We have invested a lot of time and effort in creating a MagiCAD dataset which includes a lot of technical data within the families, it's basically like a catalogue, EOM was perfect for pushing design parameters from the model into your cable calculation tool. We've been using ProDesign 3D (Amtech) for a couple of years now and although it is improving it doesn't give the same flexibility.
