Hexagon announced that PERI, one of the leading manufacturers and suppliers of formwork and scaffolding systems, has selected BricsCAD® as its preferred CAD (Computer-Aided Design) solution for scaffolding and formwork projects and the associated 3D planning work.
BricsCAD, built by Bricsys®, part of technology giant Hexagon, supports 2D, 3D, BIM (Building Information Modeling) and mechanical features and workflows on one platform. It also supports the extension of the platform on a modular & reusable way, to increase efficiency in formwork & scaffolding engineering. On top this supports PERI’s MultiCAD approach for its customers.
PERI chose BricsCAD to enable efficient 3D design and collaboration within the AEC (Architecture, Engineering and Construction) industry. To combine collaboration & efficiency, an open BIM approach is essential to PERI. Another key consideration in solution selection was the future potential of the platform and partnership between Hexagon & PERI.
“BricsCAD will allow us to implement our customer projects in an efficient and collaborative way based on a strong CAD platform empowered by a strong partnership between PERI and Hexagon,” said Adnan Djulsic, Team Lead CAD & Statics Solutions at PERI.
“We will transfer the way we work today into a more productive environment by choosing BricsCAD. It helps us ensure a seamless transition to keep the performance of our engineering high during the change process and leverage efficiencies once the change has taken place,” said Karl-Heinz Soukup, Team Lead CAD Standards & Support.
PERI will use BricsCAD Ultimate and Communicator for BricsCAD as its main CAD solutions worldwide, with approximately 1,500 global users. Additionally, the company will develop a new version of its CAD tool, called PERI CAD, on top of BricsCAD. The Hexagon solutions fulfill the core CAD needs of PERI in one package and allow additional extensions to increase formwork and scaffold engineering efficiency. They will also help make the implementation and change effort manageable for PERI in a reasonable time.
