Trimble announced Trimble Nova version 15.1 Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) design software. In the new version, 3D manufacturer-specific components can be directly downloaded and placed into a model from the cloud-based content platform. Nova users now have easy access to up-to-date manufacturer content in real time. As a result, manufacturers are better able to support their customers through the building process continuum.
"Buildings are a collection of assembled products. By bringing manufacturers and MEP designers closer together, Trimble helps optimize the constructibility and quality of the end-to-end construction process," said Lawrence Smith, general manager of MEP at Trimble. "The latest version of Nova is the direct result of prioritizing our customers' top feature requests and allowing end users to take part in the design of new features."
Improved IFC functionality that provides customers with enhanced, native import capability and interoperability
Enhanced clash detection with filters, previews and other ease-of-use improvements
New task-specific workflows that facilitate specialized operations for each of the MEP disciplines
Improved handling of 3D models
Trimble MEP makes Building Information Models (BIM) a reality by delivering solutions that transform disconnected workflows between stakeholders into a coordinated, constructible and actionable building model. To ensure a building is constructed in the most efficient way, the Trimble Constructible Process goes beyond BIM by creating models that use actual manufacturer content, allow for prefabrication and full clash detection, connect stakeholders to coordinate in real-time and bring the model directly from the computer to the field. This process optimizes the entire design, build and operate lifecycle.
