Envisioneer version 6.0 takes the next great leap in productivity saving you valuable time and greatly improving the communication process between you and your clients, consultants, and material suppliers. Version 6 makes the easiest to use Building Information Modeling (BIM) software even easier while delivering practical and effective tools to the building industry.

 

This new production tool allows you to visually locate and align your building elements with other objects in your project. Drastically reduce the amount of steps previously needed to a single point and click action.

 

SmartViews are a huge productivity enhancement that will save hours of time when drawing updates are needed. Changes made to your BIM model will now update all your SmartView plans, elevations and sections automatically throughout your entire project in seconds.

 

Envisioneer makes framing your BIM model more intuitive and adds a greater level of detail for increased accuracy. Significant new framing features include the following:

Graphical Intersection Solving
The new graphical wall configurator allows you to create and manage wall intersections with ease. A complete preview of your wall connections are now conveyed to assist you in fine tuning your framing solution.

Blocking / Nogging
Specify blocking / nogging at designated positions. Choose from wood blocking or steel bridging channel.

Lapping of Very Top Plates
You can now identify a lap distance in a continuous run of walls for a more accurate visual representation and reflection in the cut list.

 

New roof editing features solve complex situations in seconds. You can now move a roof edge and give the option of either maintaining or adjusting the support height. Another significant feature allows for the matching of selected roof planes with a master plane which is a huge time saver.

 

Edit your blocks and attributes on the spot simply by selecting them. Access the definition and attributes directly from the properties panel making changes fast and easy.

 

The new Catalog Manager introduces the editing of multiple objects at the same time. Select any number of elements and globally change parameters including size, material, and quantity information in a single step. Edit hundreds objects in minutes.

 

Additional information can now be extracted including Phase, Usage, Category, and Unit; essential criteria for advanced takeoffs and order delivery. Libraries have been created for each new item saving valuable time when entering repetitive data. Assemblies have also been improved and categorized into libraries which can be organized and selected from within the elements’ property pages.

 

The new Quote Generator allows you to define, customize and generate professional level quotes with a single mouse click. Create your own templates complete with company information and logos. Have total control over labor, one-time items, waste factors and markup. Quote Generator also provides you with the tools to manage your inventory and link to Point of Sale systems.

 

Create an Envisioneer BIM model from a PDF file in minutes. Import your PDF, then calibrate, scale, orient and crop the useful information necessary for the conversion. Track the PDF file to create your BIM model and then frame, analyze, optimize and generate renderings, construction documents and material takeoffs.

 

Envisioneer’s unique partnerships with industry leaders let you integrate with whole home structural analysis software. Directly communicate via the BIM model to value engineer, optimize, and reduce material usage with your material suppliers and manufacturers.
