Manage BIM models in progeCAD

Published on CAD Semplice a blog of Domenico IEVA

BIM models are becoming increasingly common among the files designers exchange in their work.
Not everyone is ready to acquire BIM yet, because either they fail to keep pace with update processes or they are designers whose field of action does not justify the investment in BIM Authoring software. For the latter, CAD products supporting this type of file represent a great asset…

This article will demonstrate us how progeCAD 2021 can handle BIM models also offering tools to generate 2D representations from these models, such as elevations and sections. Viewing the predefined tables and creating ad hoc sections and elevations, designers can easily realize how model geometry is organized.

Furthermore, you can determine which elements to display and which to hide  and that helps you reduce geometry complexity. So let’s see in detail: insertion, predefined views display, the creation of sections and elevations from a BIM model in progeCAD 2021.

progeCAD 2014: the true 2D/3D alternative CAD for everyone

ProgeCAD is proud to unveil the new release of progeCAD 2014 Professional, the most reliable AutoCAD® alternative on the market. The program has been enhanced with unique features and tools, has improved its performance and stability while maintaining a highly competitive price.

progeCAD 2014 Professional is a general-purpose DWG/DXF-native CAD based on the latest IntelliCAD technology. The present progeCAD edition includes a series of new features and tools, offers improved performance and stability, as well as a better usability thanks to an even more intuitive interface. The new software version ensures full integration with the latest Windows 8.1 operating system, being also compatible with earlier Windows 7, XP, 8; and supports all AutoCAD® DWG files from version 2.5 up to v.2014 sparing the necessity of time-consuming file conversion and incompatibility issues. The graphical interface look-and-feel as well as the way you use commands, menus, scripts, fonts, hatches and linetypes immediately recall the AutoCAD® environment, which is no doubt a benefit for a user accustomed to the industry standard software allowing him to get started with no training whatsoever.

Among the most interesting features, one should certainly name: 3D PDF Export, the EasyArch 3D plug-in and the Hatch trim command.       
DWG to 3D PDF Export is an exceptional tool for better communication and sharing of your projects among your colleagues and clients. It allows you to obtain an interactive 3D model of a project, displayable and editable with the free Adobe® Reader® program. Click here to watch a video-tutorial dedicated to the stunning 3D PDF Export tool. 
The EasyArch plug-in, the new version of the automated architectural tool intended to facilitate building and interior design, now works also in 3D. EasyArch 3D comes with a completely revised interface and supports Metric and Imperial measurement systems. Click here to watch a video- tutorial on EasyArch 3D.
progeCAD has implemented the long-awaited Hatch trim through the “Cut” command, which will allow you to create complex fill areas in a few quick steps.

progeCAD is a versatile CAD program, the development team have been seeking to make it even more user friendly and productive by implementing ever new tools and utilities that would optimize the design process and facilitate the drafter’s working routine. The 2014 version has been enriched with the following features:

  • Tables viewing and editing, even those of AutoCAD®. The table is the best and most widely used way of reporting data in a drawing, in the production of parts lists, bills of materials and so on. Not only can you open DWG files containing tables, but also create new tables directly in the drawing sheet or import (otherwise copy and paste) tables from Excel, Open Office or Libre Office. The table can also be generated automatically from the attributes of the blocks inserted in the drawing.
  • Dynamic Blocks Editing. progeCAD 2014 allows to edit the geometry of dynamic blocks through the Grips.
  • Batch Plot. Layouts taken from one or more drawings can be printed or exported to PDF or DWF using the print settings of individual layouts.
  • 3D Printing.  STL files management for output on 3D printers
  • .NET Support. Programs created with the .NET technology can be linked to progeCAD drawings

progeCAD 2014 Professional proposes a number of advanced features: images management, 3D modelling and rendering. Furthermore, the software package offers the PDF to DWG Converter which allows to import an existing PDF file, convert it to DWG, and then be able to open and edit it as if it were any other CAD drawing.

The program comprises the iCADLib module with over 22.000 ready-to-use blocks and provides exclusive free access to the TraceParts and Cadenas portals. Customers can easily download and insert producer standard parts and normalized symbols in their drawings. Click here to watch Video illustrating new features of progeCAD 2014 Professional.

The new release is another step forward for ProgeCAD, which has been striving to facilitate the design process and to provide more useful tools for customers across a wide range of industries. progeCAD is a CAD for everyone!”.

Great success for the 80th Philippine Institute of Architects (PIA) National Convention

Our ProgeCAD Philippine partner has participated in this prominent event promoting our software together with “green topics”. For three days last week Cebu City hosted the PIA Convention and around 500 architects visited the city on this occasion.
The meeting theme was “Touching Earth Touching lives” and it focused on ecological and social awareness in design. The Philippine Institute of Architects, the event organiser, grabbed this opportunity to spread the “green culture” to the participants. The convention has become a success thanks to the presence of three notable speakers: Kazuko Sejima, Kundoldibya Panitchpakdi and Doosdee Thaitakoo. They contributed to the event expressing their ideas on “Architecture is environment”, “Sustainable Housing in the Time of Climate Change”  and “Balancing Conservation and Development in Historic Town Centers”. The convention could not certainly overlook the environmental issues the Philippines have been facing, there were a few lectures about sustainable houses and way of balancing conservation on historical places.
Dennis Mayo, director at the Architechy, was full of enthusiasm sharing his impression about the event: “The attendees were very warm and impressed with the progeCAD software”. He also presented our software in one of the main assembly organised by PIA.ProgeCAD is always sensible to friendly environmental topics and the 80th Philippine Institute of Architects National Convention was the best occasion to increase its green attitude.

Soon our Philippine Distributor will be taking part in another exciting event, the UAP CONEX 2013 tradeshow taking place on the 18-20 April 2013, we will keep you updated on further initiatives!
