What is W&D configurator

Window and Door BIM App Suite is one of BIM Production’s proprietary solutions resulting from the needs reported by design studios. We noticed that the architect’s work lacks a solution for simple configuration of woodwork combined with an intuitive interface. It is also a tool where woodwork manufacturers can present their products in an orderly manner. Window and Door BIM App Suite contains a database of windows and doors with related products (e.g. diffusers, sun blinds), which is constantly being expanded and updated. This type of solution supports the design process by being able to analyse costs and quantity of materials. In particular, it speeds up the building modelling process, allowing to catch design errors and optimize the process of obtaining building documentation. BIM technology is a significant step in the construction sector that allows to carry out many simulations and optimize the economic effect of investment.

Who needs W&D configurator?

The W&D App is dedicated to both – designers and manufacturers: A generic window and door configurator for designers that allows selection among many different manufacturers, as well as for window / door / accessories configuration according to manufacturer’s guidelines, outside the available list. A specific window and door configurator, i.e. which will be a product configured for a given window and door manufacturer, taking into account the limitations related to the technology of a given manufacturer, e.g. the maximum width and height of a window made in a wooden, aluminum structure, etc.

Who needs W&D configurator?

By using W&D BIM App, Each party take many advantages, such as:

Manufacturers

  • A new way to promote products - all product information in one place
  • Propagation of digital solutions and assistance in improving design processes for designers - meeting the needs of architects thanks to ready-made BIM product libraries
  • Always up-to-date and correct data on the products used in projects - an ordered database of 3D models with full product specifications

Designers

  • Tool supporting work and saving time - automation of BIM modelling processes (e.g. automatic calculation of the glazing area in a window or calculation of the U factor for a window)
  • Elimination of potential errors at the design stage - (e.g. automatic marking and counting the way of opening left and right windows / doors, avoiding errors in statements)
  • Optimization of the process of obtaining construction documentation - all necessary information about the elements used in the project are in the prepared libraries
