Software tool for the intelligent connection of AutoCAD MEP and building services calculations

GBIS 1.0 - More Than Just An Interface GBIS connects AutoCAD MEP with SOLAR-COMPUTER calculation programs for buildings and systems in an intelligent way. GBIS creates SOLAR-COMPUTER toolboxes in the user interface of AutoCAD MEP, checks drawings for “incalculable drawing errors” and prepares drawing data for calculation purposes. The real advantage, however, is the integration of the calculation results in form of automated data updates, labels or dimensional adjustments in the drawings. Moreover, GBIS provides throughout all calculations, for the visualisation of rooms, radiators, pipe...

GBIS 1.0 performance feature Building calculations In a rst step, GBIS links drawing and calculation data for different applications: EnEV / DIN V 18599, heating load EN 12831, cooling load VDI 2078, energy requirement / simulation VDI 2067-10+11: geometric data of storeys, zones, rooms, building elements, deductable surface areas, neighbour relations and building element allocations. In subsequent modication steps, GBIS will update the links. Building drawing During the calculations, GBIS visualizes areas currently edited in the drawing by colouring them, e.g. room heating loads or 18599...
