We are glad to announce that starting from MiTS 2.1, MiTS 2 officially supports BIM software, such as Navisworks, Tekla BIMsight and many, many others. You can now export the entities in MiTS 2 and import them into other software, for purpose like clash checking, cut and fill calculation verification ( yes, we encourage our users to verify our software output, instead of just trusting us), integrated modelling and many, many more!
The format that MiTS 2 supports is IFC file format, the Industry Open Format for BIM software.
To export, just click on BIM Export function on file menu.
The following entities are supported:
- Road Alignment– Horizontal and vertical
- Original Ground Level, Platform levels, slopes
- Water reticulation pipes
- Sewerage pipes
- Drains
MiTS 2 is using is IFC 4×1. Most modern BIM-compatible software will be able to open IFC file in this format.
This is a milestone for MiTS 2, as this broadcasts our commitment in supporting Open Standard, and our desire to make a local product worthy of International quality.
