iConstruct PRO Features
Append Data
The Append Data command is used to add, modify, or delete custom data to a selection within the model, on the user defined tab.
BIMflow
Automate and schedule frequently used iConstruct and Navisworks® routines. Powerful customization and scripting allows tailor-made solution to be applied to your model processing workflow. Save time, money and resources by reducing repetitive work and allowing your BIM-Stars to shine in more critical areas.
Center of Gravity
Calculate the center of gravity using your model’s data and geometry. This can be used in combination with the Dimension Tool to create quick lifting studies and COG reports.
Clash Manager
Clash Manager is a drag and drop tool that makes using Clash Detective in Navisworks® more efficient by allowing grouping and sorting in ways that include proximity radius and zone data. The report designer allows you to view and distribute clash views with location markers and associated clash data.
Clash Reports
Custom Clash Reports allow users to enhance the design review and coordination process through more effective communication of clash results data.
Colour Code
Visualize your models by applying colour codes based on external datasets or model properties. Automatic generation of selection sets makes reporting easier.
Create QA View
Comment generation or simply QA View helps users to create viewpoints in the model and use predefined descriptions as comments.
Data Links
Using a unique ID, pull in data from any external data source (Excel, Access and SQL and any other ODBC) into the model to ensure your model data is always up to date and relevant to all parties.
Dimension Tool
Create dynamically dimensioned viewpoints and reporting – direct from your Navisworks® model.
Dynamic Labeler
Create and dynamically adjust labels based on your model properties. List model properties for inclusion in view reports or saved viewpoints.
Explode Tool
Get a new perspective on your model with the Explode Tool. Quickly display components in a dissected view with customizable degrees of separation.
Export Data
Unleash the information in your model to excel, PDF, HTML and Access for flexible use. Use this data for MTO or further use.
Find and Replace
Quickly fix incorrect data in your model’s properties using the find and replace tool. Templates can also be created and saved for frequent data adjustment and model standardization.
Integrator
Integrator allows users to create their own custom data tabs within Navisworks® by taking data from one or more read-only data tabs.
iView Exporter
Allows you to export a new .NWD model geometry and data contained in the existing view only, thus providing quick and powerful ability to break up your Navisworks model into smaller models.
Laser Point Creator
Create, define and export Work Point Geometry in .csv format for accurate laser measuring and checking of workpoints during fabrication. Redefine fabrication working planes of assemblies allowing for simple transition of workshop datum measurements, to site co-ordinate systems and back.
Macro Configuration
Used for loading an XAML file, created with BIMflow, into the iConstruct menu as a new command button.
Math Calculations
Do fast calculations as you work on model data.This is easy to setup and customise to your specific needs.
Model Compare
Model Compare tool allows for property comparison and determines if an object has changed based on a nominated ID.
Model Compiler
Use our intuitive interface to simplify selection and loading of project models.
Open NWD Folder
The Open NWD Folder is a simple tool which enables easy navigation to a project location. It opens the current project location in Windows Explorer.
QR Code Reader
QR Code Reader takes a final model further by allowing QR codes to be created, printed and placed around a site making it simple and quick to find the users location in the model.
Quick Viewpoint
Ribbon based tool Quick Viewpoint creates viewpoints and place it in the folder based on the template settings by just one click.
ReConstruct
A powerful tool which allows you to reorganize and group a model’s hierarchy to optimize the model’s selection tree. Export cropped models based on section planes or cuboid zones to make files portable.
Revit Client
Push Navisworks® data back into your Revit model. Give the guys on site the upper hand when it comes to marking up and reporting as built status, design & construction issues or sending appended Navisworks® user data back into the native application.
Room View Creator
Create In-room or Plan views for each room item with a selection set of rooms from a model.
Select Similar
A fast and effective way to select items with similar properties. This highly customisable tool gives you unprecedented searching and matching ability within Navisworks®.
Smart BCF Exchange
Enhance model reviews by converting Navisworks® comments and views into the industry standard Building Collaboration Format (BCF) for reading viewpoint location back into native modeling softwares.
Smart DWG Exporter
Export mesh or solid intelligent DWG’s directly from Navisworks® with x-data. Layer customization based on model data with retention of colours, groups and more. The BIM software for Autodesk® Navisworks® allows you to import or view it with leading CAD software.
Smart IFC Exporter
Smart IFC Exporter allows the user to export model geometry, item properties and material colours to the widely supported Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) format.
View Report
The powerful report designer engine allows you to combine model viewpoints with selected data in lists, charts and graphs to make material estimating and take-off (MTO) quicker and easier.
Zone Tools
The Zone Tool uses intelligent bounding geometry to isolate intersecting and enclosed objects and stamp information to them. This is often used for allocating location-based information.
What is iConstruct?
A powerful building information management system, iConstruct’s BIM application makes construction management and planning seamless by allowing the vast array of information stored in the latest generation of BIM models to be extracted, organized and used in an efficient and logical way.
iConstruct allows project teams and consultants to manage BIM design and construction information to suit various contractors within the industry, from design engineers to construction managers, and integrate this intelligence into a single 3D BIM model displayed in Navisworks®.
By running on Navisworks®, iConstruct interacts with the large majority of design software currently in use and has the ability to read a large number of different CAD formats. This enables its use by second and third parties, without the need to purchase expensive 3D BIM design software, while gaining access to the information stored within the design.
Greater Accuracy
Utilizing a range of data management tools, iConstruct allows the user to organize and control the data from various BIM design models, as well as add additional information, in a simple and effective manner.
The user can tailor the way the information is displayed and reported. Each part of the design/construction team can filter out the unnecessary information, giving a more effective focus on their area of delivery.
Using an extensive array of in-built tools, iConstruct enables the user to extract any information input at the design stage. This allows the project team to produce more accurate plans and reports based on the wealth of data held within the model.
Fully Integrated
iConstruct’s BIM software not only allows users to extract data from a model, it also allows them to write additional data into the model, which can be attached further downstream.
This then allows the model to become a much more powerful component that fully integrates with the operations and maintenance manual for a finished project. This passes the value of the model from the designers, through the construction team, and on to the facilities manager and client, giving a ‘cradle to grave’ capability to the BIM model.
By capitalizing on the ever-expanding advantages provided by BIM Management, iConstruct is creating a revolution in design and construction that means greater efficiency and even greater cost savings.
iConstruct is a highly regarded BIM software company in the building and construction industry.
