KEY FEATURES OF GLASSHOUSE
Journal
The heart of Glasshouse – this is where you link, structure, classify and edit your objects across the BIM models of your project
Quantities
The journal pulls quantities from multiple models for a single overview across specialist disciplines and sectioning.
Inconsistencies
Colour coding makes quality assurance easy by highlighting inconsistencies between the BIM model and the specifications
Keynotes (Revit)
Let the entire team work with keynotes in the Glasshouse journal and export directly to Revit
Tenderlists
When preparing the tender documents you will benefit from the direct integration with Tilbudslister.dk – the free webapp for creating CCS-standardised tenderlists
Multiple models
Pull component data from multiple models for identification of inconsistencies among the models.
Specifications
Create documents and specifications for your project. You can also connect specifications with BIM objects, and re-use data
Library
Save and share your specifications and project settings – then your next projects aren’t starting from scratch
Revit and ArchiCAD
All components of your model are managed instantly through the plugin that makes your Glasshouse journal available in Revit and ArchiCAD
