SIEGENIA ventilation units now on Allplan Design2Cost
Easy, efficient, thorough: building planning with decentralised ventilation technology
The integration of decentralised ventilation technology into your building planning is now easy, efficient and consistent: SIEGENIA wall-mounted vent units, window vents and facade vents are now integrated in the Allplan Design2Cost planning tool, the BIM solution for the designing and planning of buildings according to cost. This means that the company is currently the only provider of ventilation units whose solutions are contained in the software.
Stephan Stoll, Head of AERO Sales/E-Commerce at SIEGENIA, welcomes the cooperation: "The high impermeability of new buildings has made demand-based supply and exhaust ventilation an integral part of modern architecture. The integration of our ventilation units in Allplan Design2Cost facilitates the work of architects and planners and makes their work more efficient." Christoph Gaugler, Head of Sales/Marketing at DACODA, is also happy about the cooperation: "SIEGENIA has a wide portfolio of high-quality solutions for ventilation technology. The integration of their portfolio into our Allplan Design2Cost planning tool offers clear benefits to architects and planners."
A thorough solution
The exhaustive solution provides confidence to act and simple processes when planning for ventilation technology. Aptly-named assistants in Allplan Design2Cost support users with the planning and enable visual access to all SIEGENIA ventilation units. The demand-based selection is supported by pictograms with the unit features and installation options for the relevant unit. For wall-mounted ventilators, they will also obtain additional information, e. g. on the combination options with the SIEGENIA vent ducts or on the type of core drilling required. They can then directly integrate the desired ventilation unit into their building model via Drag & Drop. Easy and efficient work is also guaranteed by the automatic generation of all specifications, assignments, tender texts and prices in the building cost management system NEVARIS. Transfer as tender in conventional GAEB formats is also guaranteed.
Costs and quantities under control with Allplan Design2
Have a constant overview of quantities and costs even during the early planning phase of a building: the BIM-conformant planning tool Allplan Design2Cost links the building model, created with the aid of intelligent Building Data from Allplan, with the cost management solution NEVARIS, thus creating an overall solution for contemporary building cost management. The frictionless interplay gives architects and planners a continual, easily trackable overview of quantities and costs, supplemented by building specification for building owners as well as performance specifications for the subsequent tendering process. This facilitates and accelerates the planning process perceptibly.
Convenient functions ensure that potential changes can be easily implemented at all times. Every revision of the building plans automatically results in a corresponding adjustment of quantities and costs. The strengths of Allplan Design2Cost also include the possibility of obtaining an overview of the most important cost drivers of a building project and to be able to react to such cost drivers in good time. Comparisons of variants and costs are easily possible too. For its model-based quantity determination of selected assemblies, Allplan GmbH with the solution Allplan Design2Cost was the only company in the sector to obtain certification from the TÜV Süd for VOB-conformant quantities from the building model.
