Cadac
TheModus Essential
Loading BIM objects into your Revit design has never been easier. Whether it concerns UOB objects, objects from the TheModus library, self-created objects or combinations thereof. With Cadac TheModus Essential, you have the plug-in you need to make unlimited use of BIM objects. The open Uniform Objects Library* (UOB) is a separate one: an independent platform based entirely on the ETIM standard, made possible in part by Techniek Nederland. *Prerequisite for using the open Uniform Objects Library is that you have a UOB subscription with 2BA. For more information, please refer to the system requirements of this product.
Product description & Trial TheModus Essential
The availability of a wide range of high-quality and standardised objects guarantees an increase in productivity. TheModus Essential also has a powerful system for quickly searching, selecting and loading objects. With the connection to the open Uniform Object Library*, you ensure an error-free exchange of information with manufacturers, allowing you to design and build better. This allows you to guarantee the quality of your Revit designs without investing a lot of extra money or time. With TheModus Essential you can also modify and even validate UOB objects, so to speak, sustainable BIM! The UOB, supplemented with the TheModus library (multi-disciplinary, also architectural) and the objects created by yourself (for example for special own products) give you access to a veritable arsenal of high-quality BIM objects. In addition, Essential has a smart configurator to be able to apply complex objects without having to build them yourself. BIMing has never been easier!
How do you avoid spending too much time and money on ensuring the quality of your BIM designs? Thanks to Cadac TheModus Essential, you have direct access to the Uniform Objects Library (UOB), the multidisciplinary TheModus library and any library you have set up. The UOB is an initiative of Techniek Nederland, 2ba, FME, Fedet, Ketenstandaard, ETIM-Nederland and Cadac Itannex Corporation (CIC).
With this software, you can work faster and more efficiently thanks to direct access to the most important parts for modelling; the building blocks. TheModus Essential is the gateway to these building blocks and provides access to the most important libraries:
- The open Unified Objects Library
- TheModus library
- Your own library: the Customer Library
The Uniform Object Library is based on the ETIM Classification Model:
- Product data from manufacturers. The product data is offered and maintained directly by manufacturers.
- CAD components. CAD components are also called Template Objects, or in Autodesk Revit: the families.
- Open BIM. The UOB does not have a vendor lock-in. Objects are designed in various programs and can be found in the library. Thanks to this plug-in, they are effortless to import into your Revit design.
The UOB ensures an error-free exchange of information with manufacturers, allowing you to design and build better. Thanks to the addition of the UOB to Cadac TheModus Essential, you enable faster and more efficient work and reduce construction errors and failure costs. Are objects needed that are not (yet) included in the UOB? Don't worry, TheModus Essential also has its own library with more than 90,000 objects that can be used seamlessly in combination with the UOB objects. In addition, there may be products that you develop yourself and whose objects you regularly use in BIM designs? You create them once using the proven TheModus working method and place them in the Customer Library so that colleagues can also reuse them.
As standard, TheModus Essential also offers additional tools to mechanical modellers. With this software, they can more easily connect fittings and fittings of piping systems to each other, which can prevent error-prone and time-consuming work in the modelling phase.
Plan the entire BIM process
An error-free exchange of information is the basis for better design, construction and optimal implementation of maintenance and management.
Are you a BIM manager looking for tools for a more efficient process? Or tools that support you in managing so that you reduce your failure costs? With this plug-in, you benefit from a better quality BIM model, making your BIM process and control much more efficient. Your modellers can model faster and create a better quality BIM model, allowing you to meet the ever-increasing demands of the customer: better quality, faster delivery and lower costs.
To ensure the best results, we offer you free Cadac Support. This way you will never be left with your questions. Our consultants are ready to answer your questions and give advice.
Optimize your BIM projects
Cadac TheModus Essential is extremely suitable for the mechanical and electrical engineering market that works with Autodesk Revit. Nevertheless, architects and structural engineers can also use this software and its libraries.
Renowned BIM partner
As a digital enabler, Cadac specialises in BIM. Every day we are busy optimising BIM processes. We know the difficulties of BIM like no other and therefore provide you with software that tackles these problems efficiently.
Are you curious about the possibilities of TheModus for your organisation? Our consultants are ready to provide you with expert advice and solutions.
TheModus Products
Our development team is working on optimising software on a daily basis. As part of the TheModus range, our team developed even more productivity-enhancing and process-supporting tools for Autodesk Revit.
TheModus Professional
Cadac developed a number of BIM tools and collected them all in TheModus Professional. With the software, you increase the quality of the models and are guaranteed to save many man-hours in your BIM projects.
In addition to everything TheModus Essential offers, TheModus Professional also includes a comprehensive set of tools and design tools such as annotations and smart design wizzards to increase productivity and support the BIM process. With TheModus Professional , you can generate all the necessary views in no time at all based on information from the Revit model.
TheModus Model Extender
With the TheModus Model Extender , we take the BIM process one step further. The carefully constructed BIM model can function as a data source for further processes, such as calculation, work preparation, logistics, management & maintenance and calculation actions. TheModus Model Extender forms a interface with , for example, ERP: no more manually assessing drawings and reading, interpreting and manually entering numbers, lengths , etc.
TheModus Model Extender helps you to read BIM models through predefined tables and to read them into the ERP environment via XML exchange and vice versa! Would you like more information about TheModus Model Extender? Then click here.
Initiators of the Open Uniform Objects Library
The open Uniform Objects Library is developed by the sector and for the sector. Together with Techniek Nederland, FME, Fedet, ETIM-Nederland (via Ketenstandaard) and 2BA, the major technical service providers and important manufacturers are the driving force behind the platform. Data company 2BA is responsible for the exploitation of the object library and has collaborated with CIC (Cadac Itannex Cooperation) for the technical development.
BIM experts and engineers from various installation companies, together with product experts from manufacturers, determined the conditions that the library and software must meet. A unique condition is that the UOB is an open platform. Open stands for manufacturer and software independence.
