Conex Bänninger product details available as BIM objects on NBS
Conex Bänninger has taken its support for specifiers to the next level by making detailed design and technical information about its HVACR fittings available as BIM (Building Information Modelling) objects using the NBS (National Building Specification) construction data platform.
It means that architects, engineers and contractors now have ready access to data-rich 3D and 2D digital representations that show the physical and functional properties of each product.
Providing the details in a digital format gives those responsible for project specifications a better insight into how each component fits into the overall system or building design.
It makes the designer’s task easier, saving them valuable time, and as downloadable files in accessible formats, also aids collaboration between the different parties working on a construction project.
Dan Wild, Business Unit Director for the UK and Ireland, said: “In this era of digital building design, architects and designers are increasingly using BIM modelling.
“By investing in BIM objects and the digital tools that NBS provides, Conex Bänninger is demonstrating its strong commitment towards supporting specifiers, enabling them to have a greater understanding of the features and benefits of our products.
“Through NBS manufacturers and specifiers can work directly together, enabling us to deliver the highest levels of customer support.”
Hosted on the NBS platform are Conex Bänninger’s flame-free >B< Press copper fittings, the >B< MaxiPro range for ACR applications as well as compression and brazing solutions.
Conex Bänninger BIM objects are in accordance with the international standard ISO 23386:2020, which means they are machine-readable, versatile and consistent across different software.
The models have been created to be BIM Level 2 compliant, enabling a higher level of collaboration, with the CAD software capable of exporting to the common file format COBie (Construction Operation Building Information Exchange).
Dan Wild added: “As a global brand whose products are in demand in markets around the world, it’s only right that we utilise the most innovative systems and technologies that help maintain our leading position at the forefront in our industry.”
