Construction information solutions provider Reed Construction Data, US, has announced the launch of version 3.2 of SmartBIM Library (SBL) (www.reedconstructiondata.com/building-information-modeling/bim-library/). SBL is a building information modelling (BIM) content management tool for engineers and architects.
The latest version offers new features and enhancements including the drag-and-drop family publisher, allowing users to automatically publish and load Revit families into SmartBIM Library from a user's file system, Autodesk Revit project files or Autodesk Seek. Additional functionality allows users to attach files, including text documents, spreadsheets and images, to SmartBIM Objects using the drag-and-drop feature, and to view them from the attachment pane.
SBL 3.2 is also now an e-SPECS Compliant BIM Library to assist users in automating the specification process. Version 3.2 comes pre-loaded with over 21,000 high-quality Revit product types, including 200 new generic families. It still includes many features from prior versions including automatic content updates that deliver new Revit families directly to the users' desktops; automatic software updates to ensure users have the most up-to-date software features; and drag-and-drop functionality that allows users to drag objects from SmartBIM Library directly into Revit projects.
