Solibri Model Checker v8 brings BIM model quality into focus with its powerful rules-based checking and auditing tool

15 February 2013, AEC Magazine, Greg Corke

"In its simplest form, Solibri Model Checker can be used to perform clash detection — hard clash and proximity clash — but the software is so much more powerful than this.

Literally anything in the model can be checked — that all rooms have openings, that there are no duplicate components (e.g. an architectural wall on top of a structural wall), that there are no gaps between building elements (e.g. walls and floors), that a structural column goes through a slab, or that spaces are properly allocated within the model (a wall may have moved but the space not updated correctly)."

BIM quality control at Multiconsult

AEC Magazine, Greg Corke

"Solibri Model Checker is a program which is able to automatically analyse the quality of BIM models and the designs. It uses so-called rules-based analysis, and is able to analyse both individual models and combined models, which can include multiple models by different design disciplines. Solibri includes (for example) rules for validating the quality of the BIM models, accessibility analysis and interference detection to name just a few. It visually presents all design issues found and gives a clear text description of the issue, as well as the physical location, making it easy to get to the bottom of the design issues."

A closer look at Solibri Model Checker

As software for BIM (Building Information Modeling) continues to gain prominence as a design and construction tool, it is enticing AEC companies of all sizes to at least become familiar with its promises. But a quick step into the realm of software that empowers BIM can leave one feeling a bit overwhelmed. The offerings are immense and it’s hard to quickly know which AEC players would use which products.
