Revit Tools and Utilities

  • Rave-T is a tracking tool which helps in identifying and tracking the status of an element. Right from the Design stage to handover; just by viewing the model one can know the stage of each element. The tool also outputs the report in MS-Excel(xls) format enabling to know the work progress.
  • The monitoring stages and associated colour coding can be customized as per the needs.
  • It can be integrated with QR Codes,RFID or any other technique for automating the status updates.
  • Reads status from database and doesn't disturb the model.

RoboRevit reads an ACAD file and "auto-creates" a model in Revit. It places all the families in their "exact" locations in the file. This helps enhance modeling efficiency to a great extent

Robo Ravit BIM

The tool deletes elements which are perfectly overlapping each other. Often a warning is faced in Revit "There are identical instances in the same place. This will result in double counting in schedules." The tool helps in dealing with this warning.

Usage: The user has to just click DuplicateRemover which can be found under IntecInfra Menu.

LinkScheduler is a Revit plug-in which places the name/path of the Linked Docs in all the sheets in the current project. The user has the option to place the Text mentioning Linked Docs/ Models in all the sheets or selected sheets. Running this tool will display a form with a list of all the sheets in the project. In the UI itself the user can specify whether to place links in all the sheets or a few selected ones.

Imagine a large number of pipes running in a close vicinity, where space has to be provided between them on the basis of multiplier of nearest pipe's diameter. Sounds like a humongous task to be done manually. Revit has inbuilt function which can place pipes or other elements but only at equal distances between them. Intec has automated this requirement and developed an utility which takes the nearest pipe's diameter multiplied by "x" and provides space between the pipes below it; then it takes the second and the third pipe and so on.

Pipe Spacer

This Revit plug-in places the Sprinklers on all open ended pipes.

Tagger creates labels for pipes, based on the invert elevation minus or plus the value as specified in the input file. If it is a negative value, the label value is invert elevation minus the value and vice versa.

Communication between Intergraph's SP3D and Autodesk Navisworks is limited. Sp3D's files can be imported in Navisworks but the import consists of plain geometry; the import doesn't carry the attributes associated with the geometry. Intec has identified this shortfall and developed an utility with all the below features:

  1. Attribute information is preserved
  2. All elements remain intact
  3. Element Hierarchy is maintained
  4. The Output of tool is a NWC File

BatchCute

BatchCute is a utility using which multiple sheets can be exported to pdf using cute pdf. The user doesn't need to specify the filename or location for the export process ; nor does he has to click the save button each time a sheet is printed to pdf.
