The BIM Format Viewer has the functionality to run clashes, create estimates, mark issues, and much more.
It doesn’t just stop at 3D but also enables 4D and 5D models (3D models integrated with time and cost), hence it’s also referred to as the 3D+ Design Interface.
Here is a list of supported file formats.
- Revit Files (.rvt)
- Industry Foundation Classes (.ifc)
- Navisworks Document (.nwd)
- 3D Object (.obj)
The 3D+ Interface of the cube provides you with n number of functionalities enlisted below
- Selection Tree which will help you select certain links in the model
- Layers will help you select particular layers
- Types will help you select a specific type of elements
- Metadata will show you the properties of an element
- Custom Metadata allows you to add extra data of the element such as issues associated with it etc.
- Views will allow you to set different views of the model for ease of reference
- Clash Detection can be done in CUBE itself without the need for any other software
- Sheets can be viewed easily from the 3D+ Interface itself
- Relationships will help you understand the linkages between different elements
- Issues can be marked directly from the viewer and stakeholders can be added to it
- Attachments will help you understand the dependencies of the model or any other relevant document attached
- Work Order can also be attached to the model for 3D+ works
