FRILO BIM-Connector®

The user can clearly structure the building and divide it into individual floor levels in the physical model via the automatic assignment of floor slabs to storeys and the associated load-bearing components.

The BIM Connector can read out assigned materials and material grades already during the import of the file. In addition, the user can assign missing materials subsequently.

By switching from the Physical Model to the Analysis Model using the corresponding button, the solid elements of the Physical Model are automatically converted into bar elements and area elements in the blink of an eye.

The Thickness function can be used to subsequently change the component thickness for flat components (walls and floor slabs).

With the Loads function, constantly acting permanent and variable area loads can be applied to floor slabs. In addition, the user can add a load from plaster acting on both sides of a wall in the form of an area load.

With the function Join automatically the geometry of the calculation elements can be adjusted by connecting unconnected components with a mouse click. In addition, the user can connect components subsequently via the function Join manually.

Using the function Disassemble walls, the user can process walls in different ways depending on their openings and consider the modified wall models in the design. Walls can be decomposed into their individual structural components or divided into strips, for instance.

Using the Move members function, you can move component axes in relation to each other. This way, you can ensure a clean load transfer. It is possible to place components onto the contour of the slab and also, to move components to the axis of another component.

The function Check model can be used to check the model for an unfavourable alignment of components. It is verified whether the building component axes are positioned one above the other across floors or extend each other within a storey.

Über die Funktion Messen können Abstände zwischen zwei Punkten gemessen werden.

Geschossdecken (z.B. Balkone, Dachdecken mit Gefälle, Bodenplatten mit Gefälle) können mit dieser Funktion in xy-Ebene transformiert und anschließend weiter bearbeitet werden. Beispielsweise können die Platten untereinander verbunden und anschließend an das GEO/ PLT überführt werden.

Zahlreiche Funktionen können über Shortcuts aufgerufen werden. Im Hilfereiter lässt sich ein Dialog mit den im Programm implementierten Shortcuts einblenden. Dieser lässt sich über den Button Shortcuts aufrufen.
